List of Ingredients
1 medium butternut squash (about 2 pounds)
1/4 cup hot water
1 package (8 ounces) cream cheese, softened
1/4 cup sugar
2 tablespoons caramel ice cream topping
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1 package (5.1 ounces) instant vanilla pudding mix
3/4 cup plus 2 tablespoons milk
1 pastry shell (9 inches), baked
Whipped cream and toasted flaked coconut Recipe
Cut squash in half; discard seeds. Place squash cut side down in a microwave-safe dish; add hot water. Cover and microwave for 13-15 minutes or until tender. When cool enough to handle, scoop out pulp and mash. Set aside 1-1/2 cups squash (save remaining squash for another use).
In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Stir in the squash until blended. Add the sugar, caramel topping, cinnamon, salt, ginger and cloves; beat until blended. Add pudding mix and milk; beat on low speed for 2 minutes. Spoon into pastry shell. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours. Garnish with whipped cream and coconut.
Yield: 6-8 servings.
