Hi. My name is Brandon Sarkis, on behalf of Expert Village. Today, I'm going to be showing you how to make The Next Best Thing to Robert Redford Pie. Here is our crust. It's been about, I don't know, I think I got it about 25 minutes ago. So, it's nice and cool, which is very, very important for this next step, because if it's not cool, then we're going to have a tremendous problem keeping stuff from melting when we put it on here. So I let it sit for 25 minutes after it came out of the oven. And you can see it's nice and light brown, which is the color you want it to be. So I'm going to take my mixture of the cream cheese and whipped topping. That's our first layer. And we're going to layer this all on the bottom here. So what I want to do first is I want to take my mixture here and give it a stir to kind of break it up a little bit, because when you sit it in the fridge, it will harden up a little bit. I try to make sure that it's not all hard here. So we'll just dump this right into the pan, on top of the crust. And, once again, this is a step that you could do with your hands if you really wanted. I just choose not to. Let's get all this here. All right. Now what we're going to do is we're just going to take and we're going to just take our spatula and try to smear this around as evenly as we can. Whoa! My crust broke off a little bit over here. That's not good. All right. Well if that happens, do whatever you can to patch that corner up and don't go back to it. I had a little accident over here. So we will act as though that never happened. You want to make sure you get all the way into your corners, just like that. And you want to try to get it as even as you can. There's no real guaranteed way to even this whole thing out. There is our inside layer. Now what I'm going to do next is I'm going to grab a paper towel. Just kind of fold it up a little bit like this, and I'm going to go through and wipe the insides of the pan out, because I got a little bit of whipped topping up on the sides. A little bit is one thing. It will just mess up your presentation when you go and slice this, which will be later. So there is that step. The next step is the chocolate, the pudding.
