Small Box Vanilla wafers  
/4 Cup Sugar  
/2 Cup Finely−chopped pecans  
Stick Butter; melted  
−1/2 Cup Egg nog  
Cup Mashed fresh pumpkin  
/4 Cup Light brown sugar  
Egg yolks  
/2 Teaspoon Cinnamon  
Pinch Nutmeg  
Pinch Salt  
Pinch Ginger  
Envelope Unflavored gelatin  
Teaspoon Pure vanilla extract  
Egg whites  
Cup Heavy cream  
Tablespoon Bourbon  
Ounce Pecan halves  
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. In a food processor, combine the vanilla  
wafers, 1/4 cup of the sugar, and pecan pieces. Mix until the crust is  
smooth and resembles a coarse texture. With the machine running, add the  
butter and process until all of the butter is incorporated. Remove the crust  
from the processor and press into a deep−dish 10−inch pie pan. Place the pan  
in the oven and bake for 10 to 12 minutes or until the crust is set. In a  
saucepan, combine the egg nog, pumpkin, brown sugar, egg yolks, cinnamon,  
nutmeg, salt, and ginger together. Mix well. Place the pan over medium heat  
and cook the mixture for 10 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove the pan  
from the heat and sprinkle the gelatin over the filling. Whisk the gelatin  
into the filling until the gelatin dissolves. Stir in the vanilla. Cover the  
filling and refrigerate until cool. Using an electric mixer, whip the egg  
whites until soft peaks form. Gradually add 1/4 cup of the sugar and  
continue to beat until the peaks are stiff. Fold the egg whites into the  
pumpkin filling. Spread the filling evenly over the crust and refrigerate  
the pie for about 1 hour. Using an electric mixer, beat the heavy cream and  
remaining sugar until the cream is whipped and medium peaks have formed.  
Fold in the bourbon. Spread the whipped cream, evenly over the top of the  
pie. Garnish the top of the pie with the pecan halves. this recipe yields  
one 10−inch pie.
