1 9\" pie shell
1 \"Small Sugar\" pumpkin*
2 Eggs
½ cup Brown sugar
8 ounces Cream cheese

¼ teaspoon Cloves

Directions

*This recipe should work with other pumpkins, however.

Slice pumpkin in half and place halves face down on a pie sheet in a 350 F oven. Bake 1 hour, or until knife penetrates skin easily.

Remove from oven, scoop out seeds and scrape pumpkin pulp from skin - yield two cups. In a food processor, blend until smooth with the remaining ingredients, using the steel blade. Pour into pie crust and bake at 375 F for 40 minutes.
