Expert Tips

Add 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice to enhance the pumpkin flavor.

For added flavor, toast nuts in ungreased heavy skillet. Cook over medium-low heat for 5 to 7 minutes.

This is easy to make. Instead of the topping I used powdered sugar. Only thing though they are slightly bland. Next time I make these I will add pumpkin pie spice to jazz it up a bit. Worth making - my entire family liked it ;0)
