Butterscotch Heaven Pie is a delicious dessert featuring a creamy butterscotch filling in a graham cracker crust, topped with whipped cream and optional pecans.

Ingredients

1 cup graham cracker crumbs

1/4 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
1 cup butterscotch chips
1 cup heavy cream
1/2 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup milk
1/4 cup chopped pecans (optional)
Whipped cream for topping (optional)

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie pan. Bake for 8-10 minutes or until lightly golden. Remove from the oven and let cool completely.
In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butterscotch chips in 30-second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the sour cream and milk, mixing until well combined. Slowly fold in the melted butterscotch chips until fully incorporated.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the butterscotch mixture until no streaks remain. Pour the filling into the cooled graham cracker crust and smooth the top.
Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours or until set. Before serving, sprinkle with chopped pecans if desired and top with whipped cream.

For a richer flavor, use dark butterscotch chips or add a pinch of sea salt to the filling.

Substitute the graham cracker crust with an Oreo crust for a chocolatey twist.
