This is my mother's recipe. It is simply the best.
1 can pumpkin (1lb.13oz.)
1 cup brown sugar
1 cup white sugar
1/4 tsp. cloves
3 tsp. cinnamon
2 tsp. ground ginger
1 tsp. salt
4 eggs beaten
1 cup evaporated milk
1 cup heavy cream
Preheat oven 350 degrees.
Combine first eight ingredients in a large bowl.
Place evaporated milk and heavy cream in a medium sized saucepan and heat to scalding. Let cool slightly and mix into the large bowl with the first eight ingredients. Pour into a prepared 10 inch pie shell and bake for 1 1/2 hours.
New Englanders would say this pie is "wicked good."
