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.
Oh wow, these cupcakes look so divine! Yum!
Oh my goodness…YES. This looks amazing!! Pumpkin Pie is Mom's favorite…and her birthday is coming up. 😉
Mmm wow I would just eat this with a spoon
Such a smart idea- looks absolutely delicious!!
This would be such a fun idea for a non-pie Thanksgiving dessert. Congrats on the new car!
Yum! I kind of want to make this and put it on everything or just eat it with a spoon!
I have a left over (unfrosted) Gingerbread cake from a pumpkin trifle that is Screaming for this frosting!
Love this idea! Would have never thought to do this!
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!
I've seen a lot of pumpkin recipes in the last month, but this is the first one for frosting. Love it!
What a fun idea! Love the little pedestals too.
I think I love you. Wait, scratch that, I love you. This sounds amazing Tessa!!
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.
Whoa! This looks insanely good!!
