Chai Pumpkin Pie
"Try this for a different flavor from regular pumpkin pie. I really like the blend of spices. I don't like pie crust, so I baked it in a 9-in round cake pan coated with nonstick spray. From Cooking Club Oct/Nov 2009."

This was a pretty tasty pumpkin pie and the spices gave it a bit of a unique taste. I actually ended up cooking it for less then the specified time because my pie didn't hold all the batter. I used one of those pre-made crusts that you heat up and I had enough batter left over to make six cupcake custard pies which I served with whip-cream.

<p>With all four children out on their own, and fivegrandchildren added to the picture, I'm adjusting to cooking for only two. <br />I love to cook, try new recipes and play around with old ones. <br />Working in retail for the last 16 years keeps me busy, but I make time to cook. I love to take dishes to work to share.<img src=http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b2/kiwidutch/my3chefs2009final-1.jpg alt= /></p>
