Would make this again.
I will absolutely make this again. I searched many recipes, settled on this one, and delighted that I seem to have choosen wisely - it's not overly rich but has a nice full pumpkin taste. I was worried about that topping being really sweet so cut back on the brown sugar, as I only had dark brown, but it was a nice touch. Also, didn't realize I was out of ginger - will make sure next time I have some, but allspice was ok. THANKS!

This is absolutely delicious! I made it last year & friends are requesting it again this year as well as want the recipe! Warning, they are addictive.
Highly recommend, easy to make, I added 6 more minutes in the last step for a high altitude.

I lovw this recipe. It makes a large pumpkin pie with a different twist. Great for holiday gatherings where it is especially good with a whipped topping or just plain as a treat to take to work for that mid-afternoon pick me up for the gang. I have only had rave reviews. Thank you for publishing only the best recipes on the web.. :)

I served these pumpkin squares with whipped cream and they were a big hit. They are better than any pumpkin pie I have ever tasted. Very moist and just the right consistency. Everyone wants to recipe!
