Excellent recipe, Netsniper. Will have to give that a go now that I ma getting back into cooking.

I have tried this recipe and it works well I also added some moxed spice to it which gave it a real lift thank you

Isn't this the same as American Pumpkin Pie? You could use various bases including a biscuit one. Nutmeg or cinnamon can zap up the flavour too. Nice one - I still have one huge pumpkin left in the basement. I shall deprive our rabbit and I am sick of soup!
