Was so happy to see this listed here - my DD saw the same recipe in a newspaper and made it for our Thanksgiving dinner. The struesil layer made for a wonderful addition that just set off the pumpkin wonderful. She followed the directions exactly and the marshmallows made for a very pretty (though messy to cute) presentation. I do think that next time I'd leave off the marshmellows and give it a simple whipped cream topping for our personal preferance. But overall loved it for the differance the struesil layer made and will be making it again.
