I"m sorry, but I have to agree with natureprincess. Not only did they lose all of their "pumpkiness" after cooking, the texture was not good. I have been making spätzle for several years using a spätzle maker and I used that for these. I cooked them adequately, and then sautéed them, and they were totally bland and very soft. I have a NY Times recipe also, and I may delete that one from my computer as well. I have never given anything a 1-star rating, or even come close to it, I am sorry, but these deserved it. I'm sticking with my regular, excellent spätzle recipe from now on.

I changed this recipe alot and the way I did it was delicious. I used the basic recipe and then to the dough added ginger, cinnamon,and a ton of sugar. Then I boiled them with a clove and fried them in butter with a drop of maple syrup. I served them with powdered sugar, cinnamon, and maple syrup. MMMMMMM!
