A pumpkin pie recipe … with cream cheese? Yes, really! This isn’t your ordinary (i.e. boring) pumpkin pie. Everything is better with cream cheese, and pumpkin pie is no exception. The pie is fast and easy to make even for those of us who rarely make pie. In all my years of blogging, pie is very under-represented because I usually don’t want to take the time, but this one is a cinch. I like the rustic appearance because it doesn’t have to look ‘perfect’ to still taste amazing. The tangy cream cheese is a perfect contrast to the warming pumpkin pie spice. The pie is rich, perfectly dense, and your house will smell like Thanksgiving as it bakes. I know what pie I’m making this year for Thanksgiving!
