I have never made a home made pumpkin pie and thought I would use this one for a "experimental" pie. It turned out great and my family absolutely loved it. The told me that I have to save this and make it like this everytime.

We've made this pie for Thanksgiving for the past few years now. It's become a Family Tradition! We've moved to a high altitude, so I am hoping that it doesn't affect it this Thanksgiving! Best recipes ever! It will be passed down! Thanks!

This is the only pumpkin pie recipe I have attempted. The first time I made it I ran out of vanilla ice cream, so I used half-vanilla, half-chocolate and was very pleasantly surprised. I just made the pie again last night, and used all coffee-flavored ice cream, with excellent results. The ice cream made it very sweet, though, so next time (in about two weeks for Thanksgiving) I'll try 1/2 cup sugar instead of 3/4 cup. I love making this recipe with real (not canned) pureed pumpkin! The leftover puree freezes well and gives me an excuse to make additional pies, soups, etc. The pie also cuts like a dream; nice, even slices, no crumbs or broken crusts.

Makes a delicious, light and fluffy pumpkin pie. People always ask me for this one. (even the dog loves it...he stole a pie off the counter while it was still hot and ate it all but one bite) This is a family favorite now.

This pumpkin pie recipe is so delicious. By far the best I've had. I have a slight problem with my crust not getting fully cooked on the bottom (it's not the recipe, it's me...).

I had never made a pumpkin pie before so I "tested" several recipes to see which one went over the best with my husband. This one won with flying colors. I used Coldstone Creamery Sweet Cream Ice Cream once I was comfortable with the recipe. Also I found that the FRESH puree I made makes this taste so much better than from a can.

This is the best pumpkin pie I've ever had. I used Breyer's extra creamy vanilla, and it was perfect. Making the puree yourself from a fresh pumpkin is key; canned pumpkin puree tends to taste like the can and just doesn't give the same results.

This pie really is delicious! This was my first time making a pie, and not only was it delicious but I'm quite proud! Although I used a graham cracker crust and I think next time I will use the regular pumpkin pie crust. I used pumpkin pie spice instead of all of the other spices (cheaper and easier) and it tastes just fantastic!! Don't forget to cover the edges of the crust with foil so it won't burn!! I hope those who read this will enjoy making this pie as much as did!! Thanks, Cindy!!

This is the first time I attempted to make a pumpkin pie. For some reason, I have a hard time with pies, even though I can bake pretty much anything else. I chose this recipe because of the ice cream in it. It was SOOO easy! I used french vanilla ice cream and omitted the ginger,(I forgot to buy it!) so I made it with cloves instead, using the amount for the ginger. I added 3 extra pinches of cinnamon, 2 extra pinches of nutmeg and 2 extra pinches of cloves, in 2 graham crusts(store bought). This was the absolute BEST pumpkin pie ever!!! I had no problem with setting and i baked it for the first 15 mins as instucted, then thirty minutes more. AWESOME!! Thanks, this is the only recipe I will ever use!

The ice cream gives the pie such a light and fluffy texture. My boyfriend has never liked pumpkin pie and went for a second serving!

I forgot that to say that I recommend doubling the filling. Seemed very skimpy as is. You probably will have a little excess this way, but I think that's better than coming up short!

I've been making this pie for years and just now I am getting around to reviewing it. It's fantastic. It may just be my oven but I do have to leave it in for about 5 additional minutes before reducing the temp. I get requests every year now for this pie and I have printed off this recipe for friends a lot of times.

What an awesome recipe! I always wanted to make a real pumpkin pie but never found the right recipe. I made the Libby's one last year. However, this one is FAR better. All my friends and family love this one. Thanks, Cindy! - Christine

It's good, but it's not that great. The middle came out fine, but I really couldn't tell the difference between this pie and traditional pumpkin pie. It's a neat idea, however, and I might try it with butter pecan ice cream. That might be good.
