Pie Friday

[valarltd]

Have two sweet pies this week, since I'm out of savory ones.

Prince of Wales Pie

1 single crust baked pie shell
2/3 c. pack brown sugar
2/3 c. butter
1 14oz can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 c. chopped pecans or walnuts
1/3 c. golden raisins
1/2 tsp. vanilla
2-3 Tbsp. semisweet chocolate chips

Combine brown sugar, butter and milk in saucepan over medium low heat. Bring to boil. Cook 7 minutes, stirring constantly. Mixture scorches easily. Remove from heat, stir in nuts and raisins. Pour into shell. Sprinkle with chocolate chips. Wait 1 minute until they have melted. With a fork, gently stir and swirl melted chocolate on pie into pretty pattern. Chill until firm.

Mississippi Mud Pie

Chocolate wafer crust
1 to 1 1/2 pints vanilla ice cream
1 to 1 1/2 pint chocolate ice cream
Chocolate fudge sauce
Marshmallow creme
chopped nuts

Pat crust into bottom and sides of a 9" deep dish pie plate. Spread softened vanilla ice cream over crust. Pour generous amount of fudge sauce and marshmallow creme over ice cream. Sprinkle with nuts. Repeat layer with chocolate ice cream, fudge sauce, marshmallow and nuts. Freeze at least 3 hours. Remove from freezer for 10 minutes before serving, for best results.
