    Unwrap caramels and add to hot pudding. Stir until caramels begin to melt. Add butter brickle pieces and stir (caramels will not be completely melted or mixed in). Pour mix into baked pie shell. Chill 3 to 4 hours.

    To serve, whip cream and place a dollop on each piece of pie. Sprinkle with additional butter brickle, if desired.
