LAYERED WALNUT PUMPKIN PIE
I like this pumpkin pie because it is slightly different from most. It has a lighter texture. Presentation is nice because the pie is layered. I believe the original recipe came from Diamond Walnuts. Since I never have pumpkin pie spice around, I use 1/2 teaspoon each of ginger & cinnamon, and a dash of nutmeg as a substitution. Although there are a lot of steps, the pie comes together easily. NOTE: Cooking time=chilling time.

Steps:

- Beat the whipping cream with the remaining sugar until stiff.
- Turn half the pumpkin mixture into the prepared pie shell & level off.
- Top with 3/4 of the whipped cream spread in an even layer.
- Top with remaining pumpkin filling.
- Decorate with remaining whipped cream and walnut halves.
