My coffee group loved this pie. This is a really good pie but I don't have room to freeze. So I did add an extra instant pudding and used only 1 cup of whip topping folded in. It was firm enough to cutand nice light chiffon texture. This pie has a mild pumpkin flavor; not like a baked pie which is intense in flavor. I didn't use pumpkin pie spice. I prefer using 1 teaspoon cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon each nutmeg, ginger and 1/8 teaspoon cloves.

The consistancy of this turned out to be like melted whipped topping. I am not sure what I might have done wrong, but I am sure it wasnt meant to be like that. It did taste delicious though! I used cheescake pudding instead of vanilla, and a shortbread crust instead of graham. Still, niether of those changes would have caused a runny pie :).

I have been making this recipe for years! I love it because it is simple and very tasty. I have never used the raspberries in this recipe, or frozen it. I sometimes vary the spices, I have even used a regular baked shell(crust). I make several pies one or two days before the Holidays. Freezing the pie would give you an opportunity to make these pies well in advance of the Holidays, but I would make sure that it is completely thawed out before serving it. This is the best pumpkin pie I've ever tasted, but forget that for a minute, this is the easiest pumpkin pie I have ever made, it's a great time saver!

This was the hit on Thanksgiving. I was nervous after I read the negative review, but this was light, creamy and delicious! I kept it in the freezer for 5 hours, but then I refrigerated it overnight and it was still fine for serving. I will make it again and again.

A big thumb's down on this one. First of all, I don't think freezing is necessary. Secondly, my husband took one bite and threw it away. I didn't care for it too much either, I didn't finish my piece.
