1/4 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 teaspoon almond extract
3/4 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 tablespoons amaretto liquer
1 x whipped cream as an accompaniment

Press the crumb mixture onto the bottom and 1/3 of the way up the side of the pan and chill the crust.

Pour the filling into the crust, bake the pie in the middle of a preheated 350 degree oven for 45 minutes and let it cool on a rack.

Run a thin knife around the edge of the pan, remove the side of the pan, and serve the pie with the whipped cream.

I made this recipe with one change. I doubled the recipe and used 1 cup of brown sugar and 1/2 cup of barley syrup instead of 1-1/2 cups of brown sugar. This is very good, love the healty aspect of it. Next time I will try a substitute for some of the butter.
