Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.

Add crushed skor bars or heath bars between the layers and on top. It's WAYYY better than just hershey bars
I've made this countless times. When I first got the recipe, it was given to me as "Mississippi Mud Pie". Whatever you call it, it's never failed to elicit raves. It's really delicious, but watch the amount of sugar called for in the Cool Whip: I'd decrease it a bit because there's sugar in everything else. Use shaved semi-sweet chocolate (or make chocolate curls) for topping. Enjoy!
Question... The layer with the pudding as filling... do you mix the vanilla and chocolate together??? Thanks!
