    This is an excellent recipe. It's pretty foolproof too as opposed to other recipes I've tried. I accidentally splashed a small amount of water from the water bath into the brulee. It still set and was delicious. Other brulees would have never set. The taste was also very good. This will be a standard holiday dessert around here. Thanks Gale!!

    Great recipe....Achieves really a prefect balance of all the good things about creme brulee and all the good things about pumpkin flavored desserts. I did not have any of the issues with separation or a discolored result. I did use a good quality canned pumpkin that is on the dense side as opposed to the fickleness of consistency in homemade pumpkin (which I love, but not for baking. My only complaint...what there's only 4! I know, I know, I can make more.....

    This is a nice and fairly simple alternative to the pumpkin pie. My brulee came out kind of grey in appearance, but the taste was wonderful.

    I'm a big fan of creme brulee, but have never attempted to make it. I wanted to do something different for Thanksgiving this year, and this looked good. I tested this recipe a week ago . . . all I can say is wow! This will be the dessert after our Thanksgiving meal this year. Definitely worth the time.

    I used fresh pumpkin, which was yellow and very watery when I roasted it whole, so I had to drain it for awhile. Still, the dessert came out rather flat tasting. Maybe it was the pumpkin; maybe the recipe needs more pumpkin...

    Having worked with Gale Gand in Rochester, NY, I can say this recipe is amazing beyond all belief. Thanks so much for working so hard and even after 20 years you still have that magic touch.

    Strange texture. Not very good. Made 16 for party and only 2 were totally consumed.

    Absolutely wonderful. A great fall dessert. We paired it with a Robert Pecota Moscato. Perfect match!

    Wonderful creamy sweet and crunchy all in one. Plus pumpkin. How can you go wrong. Growing up my mom always made pumpkin pie for my birthday. Which was my favorite. Until I saw this on the food channel. I've been making it ever since. I love it, and so does little my picky eater.
