This is a holiday favorite in my house. it was my grandfather's favorite and it's not Christmas day without it. This can be in pie form or just as a dessert. Enjoy! Ingredients:
3/4 cup milk |
2 1/4 cups pumpkin |
1 1/2 cups brown sugar |
1/8 teaspoon salt |
1/4 teaspoon ginger |
3/4 teaspoon cinnamon |
1/3 teaspoon nutmeg |
5 large eggs |
2 (1/4 ounce) envelopes unflavored gelatin |
1/3 cup water |
2 cups cool whip |
1 fluid ounce whiskey |
Directions:
1. Heat first 7 ingredients in large pot.
2. Beat 5 egg yokes in a bowl and add hot pumpkin.
3. Dissolve gelatin in water and add to pumpkin; cook for 5 minutes.
4. When cool add whiskey and set aside.
5. Beat 5 egg whites to a stiff peak and fold into pumpkin and set aside in a cold place to let set (approximately 15-20 minutes).
6. Fold in 2 c of Cool Whip.
7. If making a pie, follow the above steps plus making a pie crust with no filling. I usually get a ready made pie crust-it just makes it easier.
