I totally messed up while cooking them though. The directions said to cook for 15 minutes @ 425, then 40 to 50 @ 350. But I misread it and cooked them @ 425 for 45 minutes. They looked a little brown. BUT the good news is I tested it out the other night @ small group and it was a hit.
Just so you know...it wouldn't be a Jilly dish without the sprinkles...
Also, I just need to share this. My husband tried it the following day, and out of the blue he said, and I quote "That pumpkin pie you made, that was the best pumpkin pie I've EVER tasted." Ok, so I know I didn't make it from scratch or anything. But this is my very first pumpkin pie. Not to mention my husband is a baked goods EXPERT. So, needless to say, I appreciate the compliment. He also kept raving about the sprinkles...gotta love this man!
Ingredients:
- 2 pre-made graham cracker pie crusts
- 1 can of Libby's Pumpkin Puree

Yes that husband of yours is a keeper!
I don't think I ever had pumpkin pie in a graham cracker crust and I definitely never saw one with sprinkles---sounds like an original hit.
