Ingredients

1 refrigerated ready-made pie crust

caramel ice cream topping (Mrs. Richardson’s Butterscotch Caramel is excellent and very thick!)

milk chocolate chips

A few optional ingredient ideas:

sweetened, flaked coconut

butterscotch chips

white chocolate chips

peanut butter chips

mini kisses

mini M&Ms

diced pecans or walnuts, salted peanuts or cashews or pistachios or macadamias - whatever nut you like

toffee bits

sprinkles

Directions

Fold out pie crust and lay it on a large baking sheet; patting it down just a bit but keeping the round pie crust shape.

Bake at 425 degrees for 10 minutes or until lightly browned.

Remove from oven; cool 15 minutes.

Spread a very thin layer of a thick caramel ice cream sauce over the crust.

Top caramel sauce with a layer of chocolate chips (or any other optional topping ideas you want to add that need to melt a bit); place pan back into a hot oven to let chips melt for a few minutes (remember, the chips won’t actually spread out when they melt, so check to see when they are soft enough to spread) – remove pan from oven and gently spread/swirl chips over caramel layer.

Cool and cut into pie-shaped wedges.

NOTE: for a fun sundae idea, use the baked wedges as a "base" for a scoop of ice cream - your toppings will be on the bottom of the dish on the wedge and not quit so runny and messy for the kids!

FRUIT WEDGES VARIATION: Skip the syrup and chips, instead spreading the cooled crust with a thin layer of cream cheese sweeetened with some powdered sugar, then topping it with whatever diced fruit you would like - you just need a thin "base" of something for the fruit to adhere to when you sprinkle it over the crust (much like a fruit pizza without much work for the base). Again, use whatever toppings you like with the fruit - a sprinkle of powdered sugar, a drizzle of melted white or milk chocolate, a bit of glaze (especially nice with strawberries, or just "au natural"!
