Preparation Steps

• Bake pie crust according to package (or recipe) directions. Cool completely.
• In a large mixing bowl, beat cream cheese with 0.5 cup of dulce de leche and powdered sugar. Set aside.
• In a clean and COLD mixing bowl, beat heavy cream with granulated sugar for a couple minutes until stiff peaks form. Remove about 0.5 cup of the whipped cream and reserve it for the garnish.
• To the remainder of the whipped cream, fold in the caramel cream cheese mixture until fully blended. With the remaining dulce de leche, reserve about 1-2 Tablespoons for garnish.
• Spread the remainder of the dulce de leche in the bottom of your cooled pie crust. Top with caramel cream mixture. Top with reserved whipped cream. Melt the remaining 1-2 Tablespoons of dulce de leche in microwave and drizzle over pie. Refrigerate pie for 4 hours or overnight.
