Wow Sue L. This is a delicious pie. What a concept to combine pumpkin and eggnog. Turned out very rich and just plain yummy. I made this for our Halloween Party. A huge hit with everyone. Thanks so much.

YUMMY YUMMY! I love pumpkin pie and eggnog, so this seemed to cover all the bases! It was so good, and I had some more for breakfast this morning! Nothing like cold pie in the morning! THanks!

WowEE dEElicious! I am not great at pastry making, so I just poured the filling into cremebrulee baking dishes. Baked them in a 'waterbath' -- and they were just perfect. What an easy and yummy dessert. Sure will make it lot again. :)

I mixed a double batch and added a third egg. I strongly recommend the use of Splenda instead of sugar. It works very well and assuages the guilt feelings a bit. Also a blessing to those with diabetic leanings. AND a table spoon of dark rum certainly gives an added delight to an otherwise great recipe.

Made this in my new pottery pie plate for Thanksgiving, using my Recipe #105545 as the pie crust. Only change I made was to add 1/4 tsp nutmeg (for me, both pumpkin and eggnog call for a bit of nutmeg).. For some reason, it took almost an hour and a half in the oven to become firm, but I think that's probably something to do with my oven since other reviewers don't mention a problem with time. Anyway, H-U-G-E hit! I got requests for the recipe, always a promising sign. (I'll just email the link--that's so easy these days!) Thanks, Sue!
