Cream Cheese Pumpkin Pie Recipe
  • Prep: 45 min. Bake: 40 min. + chilling
  • Yield: 8 Servings
45 40 85

Ingredients

  • 2 cups finely crushed pecan shortbread cookies
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 3 tablespoons butter, melted
  • FILLING:
  • 2 packages (one 8 ounces, one 3 ounces) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1 can (15 ounces) solid-pack pumpkin
  • 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 teaspoon each ground ginger, nutmeg and cloves
  • 3 eggs, lightly beaten
  • Whipped cream, optional

Directions

  • In a small bowl, combine the cookie crumbs, flour and butter; press into an ungreased 9-in. deep-dish pie plate. Bake at 350° for 9-11 minutes or until lightly browned. Cool on a wire rack.
  • For filling, in a large bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Beat in the pumpkin, flour, milk and spices. Add eggs; beat on low speed just until combined. Pour into crust.
  • Bake at 350° for 40-50 minutes or until center is almost set. Cover edges with foil during the last 15 minutes to prevent overbrowning if necessary. Cool on a wire rack for 1 hour. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving. Serve with whipped cream if desired. Yield: 8 servings.

Soooooooo Delish. I had a regular pie crust in the freezer, which I thawed and cut Maple leaves out. Baked them on a cookie sheet, sprinkled with cinnamon and sugar and used them to decorate top of pie. Made sure there were enough for each separate slice. What a big hit it was and pretty to look at too!

I made this for the first time last year at Thanksgiving. It was outstanding. I try to tone down the caloric content of Thanksgiving desserts, but this pie is worth the calories. Wonderful!

Just like traditional pumpkin pie, only richer and creamier. The pack of cookies I bought for the crust was enough to make two crusts, so I doubled the recipe. However, since I don't have deep-dish pie pans, I used regular 9-inch pans and had lots of leftover filling. It would have been enough for a third pie, but I didn't have a third crust prepared, so I poured the extra into custard cups and baked it that way. Perfect individual-size treats!

This is a great recipe; in my opinion, it's better than regular pumpkin pie. I served it tonight for dessert and there wasn't a crumb left over. It's a keeper. Very delicious.

Loved this pumpkin pie. The pecan crust makes it extra rich, but yummy, and I loved the texture of the pumpkin filling. I had enough pumpkin for a third pie and used a traditional crust for that one. It was not quite as rich as the cookie crust, but an excellent pumpkin pie. This recipe is a keeper and I've already been asked to share it.

This pie is delicious,tastes like traditional pumpkin pie put smoother, and the crust is seems to blend right in with the pie for a great flavor.
