Steps:
- In a blender or food processor, blend the vanilla wafer cookies and walnuts into fine crumbs. Transfer to a 9 inch pie pan. Mix in the butter and maple syrup. Using a fork, press firmly and evenly onto the bottom and sides of the pie pan to create a crust. Chill 10 minutes in the freezer.

- Before serving pie, place the heavy cream and granulated sugar in a small bowl. Mix with an electric mixer on high speed until peaks form. Spoon into a pastry bag with a star tip and pipe around the edge of the pie.
- In a small saucepan over low heat, melt shortening and chocolate chips, stirring occasionally, until smooth. Transfer to a small plastic container and chill in the freezer 30 minutes, or until firm.

Tips:
- For a classic pumpkin pie flavor, use a combination of fresh and canned pumpkin. Fresh pumpkin has a more intense flavor, while canned pumpkin is more convenient.
- Be sure to drain the canned pumpkin well before using it. This will help prevent the pie from being too watery.
- Add a little bit of spice to your pie with ground cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. You can also add a pinch of cloves or allspice for a more complex flavor.
- For a sweeter pie, add a little bit of sugar or honey to the filling. You can also add a dollop of maple syrup or molasses for a richer flavor.
- If you want a creamier pie, add a little bit of cream or milk to the filling. You can also use evaporated milk or condensed milk for a thicker, richer consistency.
- For a flaky crust, use a combination of butter and shortening. You can also add a little bit of ice water to the dough to help it stay flaky.
- Be sure to preheat your oven before baking the pie. This will help ensure that the crust cooks evenly.
- Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will help the filling set and the crust to firm up.
Conclusion:
With these tips in mind, you're sure to create a delicious and beautiful pumpkin pie that will be the star of your Thanksgiving table. So gather your ingredients, preheat your oven, and let's get baking!
