Mmm...I love pumpkin anything! That recipe must be amazing, but it's way too many ingredients for me! LOL!

I'm not a pumpkin fan and there has only been one recipe that I have ever enjoyed it in. My mom makes an incredible pumpkin roll. Maybe I love it so much because of the cream cheese filling though. I love cream cheese filling, LOL. I'll have to check and see if I can find the recipe.
I've actually never liked pumpkin pie! My grandmother used to make a chocolate dessert at Thanksgiving just for me. But for some reason I do love pumpkin cheesecake. Must be the creaminess! :) (and almost any kind of martini is good with me...)
I'm not a huge pumpkin pie fan but I love pumpkin muffins and pumpkin spice lattes at Starbucks.
Oh my h-e-double hockey sticks, I may have to try this. Thank you for the recipe, it looks divine! The husband is a finicky eater - he hates apple pie and yet still says he's an American. Harumph. Thanks again!
I think you'll have to convince your dad to abandon his holiday margaritas and replace them with these luscious pumpkin martinis.
