“I just made your pumpkin pie recipe. I had a large can of pumpkin so I made two pies. I knew I would find the perfect person for the extra pie. It was still hot when I found my neighbor having a hard day. Wow! Fabulous!! Will never make another recipe. Than” — a cook, 5.0★
“Made it exactly as described. Didn’t need to cover with foil or anything. Took it out when a knife inserted in the middle came out clean. Delicious! The perfect amount of spices and pumpkin and creaminess. ” — a cook, 5.0★
