kraft kitchens tips

How to Store and Use Leftover Pumpkin

Spoon leftover canned pumpkin into ice cube trays; freeze several hours or until firm. Remove cubes from trays; place in resealable freezer-weight plastic bag. Store in freezer for later use in muffin or pancake batters. Or, add to your favourite hot prepared chili, soup or stew.

Serving Suggestion

Serve with brewed Maxwell House Coffee. For an extra-special toffee flavour, stir 1 Tbsp. each chocolate syrup and caramel ice cream topping into each cup of hot coffee until blended. Top with a dollop of thawed Cool Whip Whipped Topping.

Size-Wise

Enjoy a serving of this rich and indulgent treat on special occasions.

I don't really like pumpkin pie or cheesecake, but I love this pie! I've been reading the reviews and yes you HAVE to use the cooked pudding, not the instant! I like that it's not too sweet or pumpkiny and you can't taste the cream cheese.

I made this last weekend for Thanksgiving dinner,AND WAS I DISAPOINTED.The pudding part of it did not set,therefore it was all runny.The crust was soggy and it was complete garbage.I will not make this again.

I made it last Thanksgiving and everybody loved it! It's easy to make and tastes great too. I recommend it to anybody looking for a delicious, easy-to-make dessert this holiday season, as it will definitely be a huge hit at any social gathering you bring it to.

This dessert is one I make a few times a year around the holidays and it is a HUGE HIT...rather then the basic pumpkin pie this is a great recipe and I will continue to use this one. Only thing I do different is I use a frozen pie crust and that way I can make 2 pies at once very quickly because making just one isn't enough in this house!

This was hit at Christmas dinner this year! Not too sweet. My only suggestion would be to make sure the cream cheese is well softened before mixing and spreading in the crust. I had a little difficulty spreading the mixture without damaging the crumb crust.

Made this recipe twice. First time the pudding layer did not set. The second time I made it on the stove so I could watch it better and added a little more pumpkin pie spice. Turned out perfect on the second try!

Looked okay, tasted alright. The texture was a little jiggly. Next time I`ll stick to good old pumpkin pie!
