Combine muffin mix, almonds and butter in large bowl. Cut in butter with a pastry blender or fork until crumbly. Press evenly in bottom and up sides of prepared pie plate.
Bake for 12 to 15 minutes or until light golden brown. If crust is slightly puffy, gently press down with back of wooden spoon. Cool.
Heat white baking chips in uncovered microwave-safe bowl on medium power for 1 minute. Stir. If necessary, microwave in 10 to 15 second increments, stirring just until melted. Cool slightly. Beat melted chips, cream cheese, milk and almond extract, if desired, in large bowl on medium high speed of electric mixer until creamy. Fold in whipped topping.
Spoon mixture into cooled crust. Chill 3 to 4 hours or until serving time. Arrange raspberries over filling. Garnish with blueberries and fresh mint, if desired.
Toasting Almonds
To toast almonds, heat oven to 350ºF. Place almonds in baking pan. Toast 5 to 10 minutes or until light golden brown, stirring frequently. Or, cook in skillet over medium heat, stirring frequently until nuts begin to brown, 5 to 7 minutes, then stirring constantly until light golden brown.
