Okay, even though I messed up on this pie- using a regular pie pan, rather than a deep dish- I had rave reviews on the flavor. There wasn't much of a pumpkin layer to it, after much of it poured off with my mistake, so it was really like a cheesecake with a thin layer of pumpkin and the crunchy topping. But, it was pretty tasty, so I will rate it a 4 star recipe. I will definitely have to try this one again- the right way.

This wasn't quite as rich as I thought it would be. Whether that is good or bad depends on your perspective I guess! LOL! I would have preferred it to be richer but it wasn't bad. Some people felt it was just "okay" and others loved it. Since most people said either 3-stars or 5-stars, I split the difference. ;o)
