Updated on Oct 2, 2012

Another fall recipe with pumpkin. I do love my pumpkin recipes. This one is made low calorie and you may change the way it is best for you. I topped this one off with a layer of fudge and drizzled with carmel and chopped walnuts. It is over the top good just imagine a scoop of ice cream or a hot cup of coffee with a warm slice.
