If you want to visit old friends, you can read the 2006 thread.
Blast from the past. Some of those Tribbers haven’t been here in years. Thanks for reposting it.
But, b2, don’t you have some super-secret Pecan Pie recipe to share? Or something?
This is what I’m making tonight:
The Cheesecake Factory Pumpkin CheeseSprinkle crushed pecans for authenticity

1 1/2 cups graham crumbs
5 Tbsp. butter, melted
1 Tbsp. sugar
Filling:
3- 8oz.pkgs. cream cheese, softened
1 cup sugar
1 tsp. vanilla
1 cup canned pumpkin
3 eggs
1/2 tsp. cinnamon
1/4 tsp. nutmeg
1/4 tsp. allspice
Whipped Cream
Mix crust ingredients together, just till coated and crumbly. Press onto the bottom and 2/3 up the sides of an 8″ springform pan. Bake for 5 min. at 350. Set aside.
Combine cheese, sugar and vanilla in large bowl, mix until smooth with an electric mixer. add pumpkin eggs, and spices, beat till smooth and creamy. Pour into the crust. Bake for 60-70 min. or till the top turns a bit darker. Remove from oven and allow to come to room temperature, then refrigerate. After it has thoroughly chilled, remove the pan sides and cut. Serve with whipped cream.
Thanks for the repost! Nice to see some of those names again.
(And I was able to copy my recipes for posting later on Facebook or LiveJournal… especially the popcorn stuffing one… still my favorite after all these years!)
Hope y’all* have a great Thanksgiving & weekend!

We were all so young back then.
It’s hard to believe it”s only been 4 years, isn’t it?

sorry about Bud. I know how that is.
thx. It’s been rough but I’m dealing
Awwww, ManE, did you lose Bud? I am so sorry. I know what he meant to you and I just stunned and sad. My thoughts are with you. (((Hugs)))
