How to Make Free Toe Pie

  1. Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9x13 inch baking dish or similar sized casserole dish.
  2. Layer 1/2 bag (approximately 6 oz) crushed corn chips in the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  3. Spread 1 (15-ounce) can of chili evenly over the corn chips.
  4. Sprinkle 1 cup shredded cheddar cheese over the chili.
  5. Repeat layers 2-4 two more times, ending with a layer of corn chips.
  6. Top with the remaining 1/2 bag (approximately 6 oz) of crushed corn chips and 1/2 cup shredded cheddar cheese.
  7. (Optional) Add a dash of your favorite hot sauce between layers for extra heat. Do not add salt, as the corn chips are salty enough.
  8. Cover the baking dish with foil and bake for 15-20 minutes.
  9. Remove foil and bake for an additional 5 minutes, or until the cheese is melted and bubbly and the top layer is lightly browned.
  10. Let cool for 5-10 minutes before serving.
  11. Serve immediately topped with sour cream and salsa.
