Absolutely delicious. I have made a few pumpkin pies (not common here in NZ) for my family since moving here but never one with cream cheese or one that had a nut topping. Ive never seen canned pumpkin here either so I just steamed up an amount of fresh pumpkin that looked like it would mash to the amount required and other than that I followed the recipe to a T. Simple to make and great spiced flavour. Thank you for sharing.

Really good! Made just as directed, but left off the topping. I was in a hurry, and didn't chill the cream cheese base before adding the pumpkin, which was definitely a mistake, as the pumpkin and cream cheese mixed a bit. It was very good, but my DD suggested that it would have been better with a graham cracker crust, and I think that is a very good idea. I'll probably be making this again. Thanks for the great recipe!
