Steps:
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with a silicone mat. Mix together baking soda, 1 teaspoon water, and vanilla in a small bowl; set aside.
- Mix together sugar, 1 cup water, and corn syrup in a 3-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until mixture reaches 240 degrees F (115 degrees C) on a candy thermometer, or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from water and placed on a flat surface, about 25 minutes.
- Stir in pecans and butter. Heat to 300 degrees F (149 degrees C) or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms hard, brittle threads, about 13 minutes. Immediately remove from the heat and stir in reserved baking soda mixture, until candy is light and foamy.
- Pour mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and allow to cool until hardened, 1 to 2 hours. Break into pieces.

Steps:
- 1. To make the pie: Preheat the oven to 350°F. Bake the crust until warm and fragrant, 12 to 15 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- 2. Sprinkle the gelatin over 3 tablespoons of water in a small cup and let sit for 5 minutes. Meanwhile, combine the pumpkin puree, milk, sugar, egg yolks, spice, and salt in a medium saucepan. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the mixture begins to bubble and thicken, 6 to 8 minutes.
- 3. Whisk the gelatin mixture into the saucepan with pumpkin mixture until combined and the gelatin is dissolved completely. Let sit at room temperature, stirring frequently, until it is cool but not set, 30 to 40 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl.
- 4. Beat ¾ cup of the cream in a large bowl until semi-stiff peaks form. Fold the whipped cream into the cooled pumpkin mixture, folding just until combined. Pour into the graham cracker crust. Place plastic wrap directly on the filling and refrigerate until firm, about 3 hours or overnight.
- 5. For the brittle: Spray a rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Have a candy thermometer, a bowl of water and a pastry brush ready.
- 6. Put the sugar and ¼ cup water in a medium saucepan and place over medium-high heat. Cook without stirring, allowing the water to evaporate as the sugar begins to melt. Dip the pastry brush in the bowl of water and brush down the sides of the pan if any sugar crystals begin to form around the edges. When the sugar turns a deep caramel color and registers 300°F. on the candy thermometer, about 15 minutes, pick up pan and gently swirl to melt any sugar that hasn't dissolved. Carefully pour the melted sugar onto the prepared baking sheet, spreading it out as much as possible. Immediately sprinkle the toasted pecan pieces and salt evenly over the top and allow to cool completely, about 30 minutes.
- 7. Beat the remaining ½ cup cream in a until stiff peaks form. Spread the cream over the top of the pie. Break up the brittle into shards and put them into the whipped cream; slice the pie and serve with more brittle.
BROWN SUGAR PECAN BRITTLE
Super simple and very delicious treat! A brittle that tastes just like the candied pecans from the mall. The recipe doesn't make a big batch but it is definitely worth it. Mexican vanilla is super yummy with this.
