Servings 8
Ingredients
- 1 (9-inch) refrigerated pie crust (room temperature)
- 12 ounces cream cheese (room temperature)
- 1¼ cup packed dark brown sugar
- 3 large eggs
- 1¼ cup heavy cream
- 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
For Serving
- whipped topping
- powdered sugar
- ground cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350℉. Roll the pie crust out into a 9-inch pie plate and crimp the edges or fold them under. Place the pie crust inside the fridge while you prepare the cinnamon filling. *If you're using a frozen pie crust inside a pie plate make sure it's completely thawed before using it in the recipe.* Follow the directions on the pie box and let the crusts sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes. This makes it much easier to spread into the pie plate.1 (9-inch) refrigerated pie crust

- Pour the mixture into the prepared pie crust and bake for 30-40 minutes or until the edges are all set and the center is still slightly jiggly. If the edges begin to crack, the pie has finished cooking.* See the notes below for baking tips
- Allow the pie to cool to room temperature, then cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 4 hours before slicing and serving.

Notes
Cream Cheese : Use the bars of cream cheese that come wrapped in the foil. Each bar is 8 ounces and the recipe calls for 12 ounces - so use 1.5 bars of cream cheese.
