I made a pumpkin pie today, except it isn't really. I used this recipe because it is non-dairy. Except we don't have karo syrup. koyote suggested molasses in it's place, which I was dubious about because of the strong flavor, but he assured me it would be ok.

There were two screwups here - I apparently missed the part where he suggested cutting it with honey, and I expressed "molasses has a very strong flavor" as "molasses isn't very sweet", which really isn't the same thing.

So the pumpkin is totally overpowered, but it's very addictive, and I'm trying to resist going back for a third piece. However, everyone else has eschewed it in favor of the sweet potato pie (which I can't eat), so perhaps I am just a molasses fiend.

I made three pies today, 2 pumpkin and a Toll house pie. I used Milnot in my pumpkin pie, it's the one on the back of the Libby's pumpkin can. I had planned to make it with Splenda, but Mom forgot to get it. So dad only got one tiny piece of pie.
