    CARAMEL-PECAN APPLE PIE: Immediately after removing pie from oven, drizzle with 1/3 cup caramel ice cream topping. Sprinkle with 2 to 4 tablespoons chopped pecans.

    MAPLE-FROSTED APPLE PIE: In small bowl, combine 1/2 cup powdered sugar and 3 tablespoons maple-flavored syrup. Drizzle over warm baked pie.
