PUMPKIN TORTE
This is a traditional Thanksgiving recipe from my boyfriend's family. It is lighter and fluffier than pumpkin pie, and now I make it for our family every year. Be very careful pressing down the graham cracker crust, or it will come out much too hard; in fact you might not want to at all.

Steps:
- Mix crust ingredients until moist, and press*very* gently and evenly into bottom of 9"x13" cake pan.
- Blend'cream cheese mix' ingredients until smooth and free of lumps; I find it easiest to cream the cheese& sugar together, then gradually add the egg.
- Pour over crust, then bake 20 minutes at 350 degrees Farenheit.
- Cool to room temp.
- Combine all'pumpkin mix' ingredients except last three (egg whites, gelatin and 1/4 cup sugar); cook on stovetop until thickened.
- Remove from heat.
- Dissolve gelatin in 1/4 cup cold water; add to pumpkin mixture.
- Cool to room temperature.
- Whip the egg whites, gradually adding 1/4 cup sugar, until stiff.
- Gently fold into pumpkin mixture.
- Fill cake pan with pumpkin mixture; chill and serve with whipped cream.
