TURTLES® PIE

Steps:

• Place pecans into bottom of pie shell.
• To Make Filling: In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, cook condensed milk, brown sugar, butter and corn syrup. Stir and bring to a boil; stir continuously for at least 5 minutes. Remove from heat, then slowly beat with a spoon until mixture starts to thicken; will take about 2 minutes. Be sure not to over beat or it will harden too much. Pour mixture into pie shell; cover and refrigerate for about an hour. Filling ingredients may be halved to make for a less rich pie.
• To Make Topping: In a medium saucepan, cook chocolate and butter over low heat until melted together. Stir in condensed milk; mix well. Remove from heat; allow to cool just enough so that yolk won't cook when added, but not so cool that the chocolate hardens; cooling time will be about 3 minutes. Stir in egg yolk to chocolate mixture; spread over cooled filling. Place pie back in refrigerator and cool for another hour.

FUDGY TURTLE BROWNIES

Steps:

• Caramel: Combine sugar and corn syrup in a saucepan. Cover and cook over medium-high heat until sugar has dissolved and mixture boils, about 5 minutes. Uncover and continue to cook, swirling pan occasionally and brushing down sides with a wet pastry brush, until mixture turns medium amber, 3 to 4 minutes more. Carefully add cream in a slow stream (mixture will bubble vigorously). Remove from heat and stir until smooth. Let cool until caramel thickens slightly but is still pourable, about 10 minutes. Makes 1 cup. Use immediately.
• Brownies: Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Line bottom and long sides with parchment, leaving an overhang; butter parchment.
• Whisk together flour, baking powder, and 3/4 teaspoon kosher salt. In a large heatproof bowl set over (not in) a pot of simmering water, melt chopped chocolate and butter with oil. Remove from heat. Add both sugars; whisk until smooth. Add eggs and vanilla; whisk until glossy, 1 minute. Add flour mixture; stir just until combined (do not overmix). Pour batter into prepared dish; smooth top with a spatula. Arrange pecans on top in a single layer.
• Bake until a tester inserted into center comes out with moist crumbs, 40 to 45 minutes. Transfer dish to a wire rack; let cool completely.
• Drizzle caramel over brownies; let cool until set, 30 minutes. Drizzle with melted chocolate; sprinkle with flaky salt. Let chocolate set (refrigerate for a few minutes, if desired), then cut into squares and serve.

RILEY'S FROZEN TURTLE PIE

Steps:

• Make sure your ice cream is softened enough so that you can spread it.
• Fill the graham cracker pie crust with the softened ice cream, leaving about 1/4-1/2 inch space at the top.
• Cover and freeze until solid.
• Cover the entire surface of the pie with an even layer of caramel sauce, then recover and let freeze until firm.
• Pour an even layer of chocolate sauce on top of the caramel.
• Sprinkle as many chopped nuts on top as you like; cover and return to freezer until firm.
• You can do all of the previous steps ahead and leave the pie in the freezer until needed.
• When you plan to serve the pie, set it out on the counter to soften up just enough so you can slice it into 6 servings.
• Set one slice onto a plate and using a spray can of whipped cream, cover the entire slice with whipped cream--piling it high like meringue.
• Sprinkle with additional chopped nuts, if desired.
• Stick a whole pecan half into each slice, and serve.
• NOTE: DO NOT use the squeeze bottle type of chocolate syrup, meant for making chocolate milk.
• It is too thin and will not harden up enough.
• Instead, look for the small cans of Hershey's chocolate syrup or any brand that comes in a thick, fudgey sauce form.
