Would make this again.
This is a must have in my family and has been for many years! No one is allowed to make any desserts for the holidays, that's my job! BEST pie EVER! Easy, delicious & ALWAYS A BIG HIT!! I saw someone posted it didn't set...I would remake it, I have NEVER had a problem with this receipe. Maybe something was missed or over mixed! five stars

Would not make this again.
Terrible. The pie did not settle after 5 hours so it was a runny mess. Not able to even cut it. The pudding is too creamy with the pumpkin puree and there was not a stabilizing ingredient to pull this pie together.
Yes, it is defunct. one star

I have made this recipe every year for many years; I prefer it to plain pumpkin pie because of the yummy cream cheese layer. Best of all, no baking! It is always a hit when I take it somewhere. five stars

This has been a family favorite for years. Since I served it the first time I have had several calls every year from family or friends for the recipe. This year I am in the middle of moving and had to look it up myself. Simple, delicious and you'll want to make it every year! five stars
