I enjoy making up recipes and began experimenting with squash a couple years ago. Lase fall, my garden was loaded with squash, so I came up with this creamy pie. It really went over well at Thanksgiving dinner. -Sandra Kreuter Barney, California

Butternut squash is one of my favorite fall flavors, and this pie is the perfect way to enjoy it. The filling is smooth and creamy, and the crust is flaky and buttery.

Overall, I thought this pie was just okay. It wasn't bad, but it wasn't anything special either.

The crust was a bit too thick for my taste. I think I'll try using a thinner crust next time.

The filling was a bit runny. I think I'll try baking it for a few minutes longer next time.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

This butternut cream pie was a hit! The filling was smooth and creamy, and the crust was perfectly flaky. I added a dollop of whipped cream on top, and it was the perfect finishing touch.
