Added: September 18, 2006
Ingredients
- 1 1/2 C. cooked and mashed pumpkin
- 1/4 tsp. ginger
- 1/4 tsp. nutmeg
- 1 tsp. cinnamon
- 3 eggs
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1 C. cream or half and half
- 1 Tbs. butter
- 2 Tbs. molasses
- 1/2 C. sugar
- 1/4 C. sweetened whipped cream
- 1/4 C. finely crushed nuts
Directions
Combine the pumpkin, sugar, spices and molasses. Beat until well mixed. Mix beaten eggs with milk and salt. Cook in double boiler until it reaches a soft custard stage-where it coats a spoon. Remove from the heat and mix well with the pumpkin mixture. Turn into six small baking dishes and set in a pan of hot water to bake at 350 degrees for 40 minutes. To serve, turn out and top with whipped cream and the crushed nuts.
