Davina, I have never been a great fan of pumpkin pie and I like this dessert because of the ginger snap cookie combination - it is smooth and creamy...oh I do love Lemon Meringue pie and one year my daughter made Lemon Meringue tarts - oh yum!. When I make LM pie it never turns out correctly? still love to eat it! Patricias last blog post..Factoid Friday: A Sweet Pumpkin Treat

Hi Patricia. My mother used to bake pumpkin pie for all holiday desserts. Sometimes she made tarts too. I was the only one in the family who didn't like it. My favourite pie is lemon meringue. But this recipe of yours does sound good though. Davinas last blog post..A Ghostly Life Experience

My guy makes a great pumpkin, chocolate chip, slivered almond muffins too….I wonder if I cook up his garden pumpkins if he will indulge us with those?

Barbara your cranberry/pumpkin bread sounds very yummy…Oh how good the kitchen will smell and how cozy the tummy will feel – Oh yes! pumpkin is a true treat for us …

Happy Halloween!

Hi Patricia – This sounds yummy. I have all of the ingredients so may try it this weekend. Pumpkin is good for us, isn’t it? I like making pumpkin/cranberry bread this time of the year. Hey, that sounds good, too. I might have a busy weekend cooking and baking. Thanks for the inspiration.

Happy Halloween!!!!!

Vered,
This is so creamy and good – a delightful way to get some veggie into folks!

Jannie,
I have now made it three times, once with full strength cream cheese, once with 1/3 fat and once with silken Tofu – I did not press the water out of the tofu enough so that one was a bit wet.

I used Organic canned pumpkin two time and leftover baked pumpkin from the garden once…each was a success, yes the pumpkin needs to be cooked and I had to sieve some of the water off the fresh baked

Thank you for your good words. I hope you will make it and enjoy.

Or I should say, her Ma cooked that pie. Jannies last blog post..How much are you paying?

Can it be any kind of a pumpkin, or should it be a "Cooking" one? Which, funnily reminds me of "The Long Winter" in Laura Ingall's Wilder's series when she made a feast out of a green pumpkin. God, they worked so hard in those days. I must count my blessings more often. Jannies last blog post..How much are you paying?
