Pumpkin Crunch

This is the recipe that made me realize that I liked pumpkin. 
 My Mom made this years ago and wouldn't tell us what it was until we tried it. 
 We all loved it and then she told us it was made from pumpkin.  
I would have never tried it if I knew it had pumpkin in it!  

I made this last week and took it to work. 
 It was a huge hit.  Everyone wanted the recipe.  This is so quick and easy to make. 
 It would make a perfect ending to a fabulous Thanksgiving feast next week.
