Despite the fact that Dottie\u2019s pie has displaced my mom\u2019s pumpkin pie<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>as the fairest in the land, she and Dottie still speak.

          \n
        • You have to let it cool a bit for it to firm up (about 2 hours).<\/span><\/li>\n
        • If you\u2019re in a hurry, put it in the refrigerator.<\/span><\/li>\n
        • When you can\u2019t stand it any more, here\u2019s what <\/span>not to do<\/i><\/span>. Do not mar it with a fake whipped cream.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
        • Because we all know that pumpkin pie<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/span>screams for whipped cream, I\u2019ll give you the recipe. It\u2019s very easy.<\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
