Easy and Really Good Creamy Pumpkin Pie

Submitted by Kittencalrecipezazz

"Taken from my Thanksgiving/holiday favorites folder. If you prefer a more intense filling flavor, then double up on all four spices. Make certain not to defrost the pie crust, fill frozen and then bake, this recipe calls for a store-bought pie crust, that's what makes this recipe very easy! Use 4 eggs for a fluffier and lighter filling, if you prefer a denser filling then use only 3. If you are making this pie for a large dinner party, then my advise is to make two pies. This pie will produce excellent results in very little prep time, because of the frozen crust this pie takes only minutes to put together!"
