Retro Pumpkin Marshmallow Pie

 

Retro Pumpkin Marshmallow Pie was first made by my Aunt back in the late 40's and early 50's. She was a wonderful cook and always brought the most delicious dishes to family gatherings. When she passed away her son gave me many of her old recipes and that is where my daughter Robbin and I found this retro recipe. We have made a few changes but the base of the recipe remains the same. One thing for sure that didn't change is the amazing flavor with the most silky filling. I am so happy that we found the recipe, it sure brings back lots of great memories and we made new memories as we made it together.

Start This Recipe With A Great Pie Crust

My daughter has a natural talent for working with pastry, 

so she took care of the crust.

She always makes it look so easy, rolling 

that crust right onto that pie plate.

I love the crimp pattern, 

she made it look real pretty!

Next we will bake the crust and let it cool.

I started the filling for the pie with melting 

the marshmallows with a little cream.

The Marshmallow's melt into creamy goodness.

Add the pumpkin and spices to the marshmallow cream.

Next whip the cream and divide it, half for the filling 

and half for the garnish.

Place half of the whipped cream into the pumpkin mix.

Fold in the whipped cream with the pumpkin mixture.

Pour the filling into the baked pie crust.
