So easy to make, and a wonderful change from pumpkin pie. A great potluck dessert as well during the holidays. Folks love it and ask for the recipe every time. I do like to add the spices I normally use in my pumpkin pie for the best flavor.<\/p>","CommentId":6,"DateRated":"12\/06\/2013 12:55","GUID":"2a51006e4780437da9f5eb09e33eb16c","MemberId":6989823,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"Amy","SubmittedDate":"12\/06\/2013 12:54"},{"Comment":"

This is nothing less than a 5 star dessert! I make it a minimum of 4x per Thanksgiving\/Xmas holiday (and usually many times in-between) and have for the past 7 years. I don't know if I would be allowed to attend our family Thansksgivings without it because many years ago it replaced the traditional pumpkin pie! Everyone looks forward to this dessert and newbies ALWAYS request the recipe. I even started using this as my preferred "Wedding Shower" recipe to share with new brides :)<\/p>","CommentId":7,"DateRated":"","GUID":"302faf5962424a928b72e8141aa0cca6","MemberId":7504038,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"bethie1988","SubmittedDate":"11\/24\/2013 15:50"},{"Comment":"

Someone said this had no taste. Looking at the Recipe, I would agree. You have to add the spices, if you buy the Pumpkin that doesn't have the spices already in it..............I'm sure that's what she did. I would add spices to this........cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, pumpkin pie spice......to give it more pumpkin taste. I will make this, it look's really good! Add spices to taste!<\/p>","CommentId":8,"DateRated":"","GUID":"378045587A8D4945BE98DF0376D57C8B","MemberId":827602,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"sdtdcd1@aol.com","SubmittedDate":"10\/29\/2013 15:46"},{"Comment":"

An older lady from our church brought this to a potluck the month that it was issued in 2000. Since then it has been a staple to every Thanksgiving and Christmas. It has almost entirely replaced pumpkin pie, and has completely done away with the idea of pumpkin cheesecake. We cannot live without it.<\/p>","CommentId":13,"DateRated":"11\/15\/2011 11:14","GUID":"34026076e2a24c6ca976bfa9a73a5eaa","MemberId":4943586,"Rating":5,"ScreenName":"JoannaRenae","SubmittedDate":"11\/15\/2011 11:14"},{"Comment":"

This was a huge disappointment. The texture was very weird and bland tasting! It should have had pumpkin spice added to it for flavor.

I found this recipe years ago and have made it many times each fall and winter. Everytime I have taken it somewhere I have been asked for the recipe or they will request that I bring the pumpkin dessert. It is a favorite of our family and extended family.
