Equipment

Ingredients

  • 1 9" pie crust refrigerated, or see tip below
  • 40 Rolo candies unwrapped
  • ¼ cup butter
  • ¼ cup milk
  • ½ cup dark brown sugar
  • 3 eggs
  • 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
  • ½ heaping teaspoon kosher salt
  • 1 cup pecan halves

Instructions

  • Prepare crust: Preheat oven to 350℉. Place the rolled pie crust in a 9" pie plate and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Prepare filling: In a small saucepan, combine the Rolos, butter, and milk and cook on low, stirring very frequently, until melted and smooth.
  • While the Rolos are melting, combine the brown sugar, eggs, vanilla, and salt in a large mixing bowl or the bowl of a stand mixer. Using an electric mixer, mix on high speed for about 1 minute or until combined, light, and frothy. Slowly add in the melted caramel mixture, then stir in the pecans by hand. The mixture will be very thin.
  • Bake: Pour the mixture into the prepared pie shell and bake for 40-50 minutes or until golden on top, but the pie still jiggles when you bump it. Remove from the oven and allow to cool completely.
  • Serve: Serve cold or at room temperature with a dollop of sweetened whip cream or a scoop of vanilla ice cream and, if desired, chocolate and caramel sauce.

Notes

  • If serving the same day, feel free to leave the cooled, covered pie on the counter until serving time.
  • Store leftovers, tightly covered, in the refrigerator and consume within 3-4 days for best results.
