Ingredients
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon cloves
- 2 large eggs
- 15 ounces pumpkin puree
- 12 ounces evaporated milk
Directions
-
Preheat oven to 425 degrees F. Spray a 9-inch pie plate with non-stick cooking spray.
-
In a small bowl combine sugars, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves. In the bowl of an electric mixer beat eggs. Stir in sugar-spice mixture and pumpkin puree. Slowly add evaporated milk. Beat to combine.
-
Pour filling into prepared pie plate. Bake for 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 350 degrees and continue baking for another 35-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean. Let cool completely at room temperature for about 2 hours. Can be made ahead of time and stored in the fridge; let come to room temperature before filling. Once pumpkin pie is cooled, remove to a large bowl. Beat with an electric mixer on medium speed for thirty seconds.
Whoa! This looks insanely good!!
This is so clever! I've seen pumpkin flavored cupcakes (and pretty much everything else), but I've never seen pumpkin frosting. Your photo is so pretty too.
I think I love you. Wait, scratch that, I love you. This sounds amazing Tessa!!
What a fun idea! Love the little pedestals too.
I've seen a lot of pumpkin recipes in the last month, but this is the first one for frosting. Love it!
Heard some nerves rattling when you said the procedures are “not the average frosting”…
I really want to try this out. That is what is good about working in the kitchen, great or not so great, you can have your pie and eat it too…Thanks for sharing this post!
Love this idea! Would have never thought to do this!
I have a left over (unfrosted) Gingerbread cake from a pumpkin trifle that is Screaming for this frosting!
Yum! I kind of want to make this and put it on everything or just eat it with a spoon!
This would be such a fun idea for a non-pie Thanksgiving dessert. Congrats on the new car!
Such a smart idea- looks absolutely delicious!!
Mmm wow I would just eat this with a spoon
Oh my goodness…YES. This looks amazing!! Pumpkin Pie is Mom's favorite…and her birthday is coming up. 😉
Oh wow, these cupcakes look so divine! Yum!
