"Freezing a piecrust before filling reduces shrinkage. When time is short, fold piecrust edges under instead of trimming, and crimp or press with the floured tines of a fork. For Toffee-Walnut Pie, substitute toasted, chopped walnuts for pecan halves, and add 4 (1.4-ounce) English toffee candy bars, crushed, to filling mixture. For Mixed-Nut Pie, substitute 11/4 cups coarsely chopped mixed nuts for pecan halves." — Southern Living magazine
