Recipe
Prepare crust by blending flour and salt in a large bowl. Add shortening and cut in with a pastry knife until particles the size of coarse peas form. Add water and blend with a fork until a soft dough forms. Roll out and place in a 9-inch pie plate.
Preheat oven to 375F. Combine cream cheese, sugar, and brown sugar in large bowl and beat on high speed until fluffy. Add eggs and beat on low speed just until combined. Gently stir in all the remaining filling ingredients. Slowly pour filling mixture into crust. Bake for 50 to 55 minutes or until knife inserted in middle comes out clean. Center will be slightly soft but will firm as it cools. Beat topping ingredients to make rum whipped cream and garnish pie.
