Ihis recipe is quick and easy. everyone i make it for absolutely loves it. I've made this recipe about 15 times.

i make this pie every year and everyone loves it..just a tip if you want to make it without pecans don't put the caramel on the bottom of the pie. it will become watery. :( but i froze it and it was as good as when i first made it.

I made this with the vanilla pudding,then I found the pumpkin pudding. I cannot wait to try it with the pumpkin. This pie is very sweet but is very good. I did make my own graham cracker crust as I like a bit thicker crust than a store bought one.Very easy to make.

This pie is easy to make and delicious. I have taken it for my Bridge group and to a fund raiser and it gets rave reviews plus several requests for the recipe.

Our whole family loves it. I have to make it every year from now on.

Made this for Thanksgiving last year and it was a huge hit. AND....it was so easy to put together. I also varied the recipe a bit to make it chocolate with a chocolate cookie crust and that was also a big hit.

I make this almost every year for Thanksgiving - HUGE HIT at my house!!!!

This is an amazingly delicious recipe that has replaced "original" pumpkin pie at my house at Thanksgiving. I think that if you try it, your family will want to do the same!

This pie is so delicious! I will surely make it again!

AMAZING!!!! A bit out of season but my father in law requested pumpkin for his birthday. I put it in the freezer for a few hours then transferred it to the fridge a few hours before serving...perfect consistency!!!! I was told it has to be a menu item for Thanksgiving!!!

Love it....very easy to make.

This is very good. It's rich like a Cheesecake and definitely for pumpkin lovers. I am going to try to convince my Grandma to let me bring it for Christmas instead of us having a regular Pumpkin Pie.

Very easy, very tasty. My only suggestion would be to maybe use melted caramels for the layer next to the crust. Ice cream topping doesn't get hard and when you slice the pie it runs out. Otherwise - great pie.

This pie is simply amazing. Sure, it's sweet but it IS a dessert. Also, try the pumpkin batter by itself before putting it in the pie crust, it's really good.

I love this recipe!! I've made it every year for a few years now..my family loves it, and I've kept it a secret how quick and easy it is to make. I easily make 3 or 4 with no problem. Enjoy!

I made this recipe last year and it is so good I searched for over an hour to find it again to make this year.

This recipe was great. I make it each year for the holiday's. My family loves it. Quick and easy.

I made this for my husband the day after he returned home from deployment, and he said it was an amazing "welcome home" treat! This will be a family tradition!
