This recipe came from last months woman's world. it's was easy to make and look's very impressive. i made the mistake the first time and use pumpkin instead of ready made pumpkin pie filling,
it came out a little bland .so if you try this recipe be sure to use pumpkin pie filling. it then came out very good and
could also be easily turned into a low cal desert ,by using low fat whipped cream and cream cheese , my guest were really in awe and the kids loved it. i still prefer pumpkin pie, but this was lighter and less filling it 's also really fun to serve to guest.
INGREDIENTS:
2 cups of heavy cream
1 tsp vanilla
8 oz cream cheese ( room temperature)
