How to Make the Best Pumpkin Cream Pie with Bourbon Whipped Cream Recipe

Fall flavors shine in this delicious pumpkin cream pie. Everyone has their own taste, of course, and I also love Pumpkin Spice Layered Lush and Pumpkin Bread as much as the next person. Wanting to keep with tradition we just knew there had to be a more creamy option. This is one of our kitchen experiments that went wildly right, and I had to share it with you too. This pumpkin pie is creamy with a little kick and piled high with fresh whipped cream, it's a true winner in every sense of the word.

• Ingredients you'll need to make homemade Pumpkin Cream Pie: Canned pumpkin puree 9not pumpkin pie filling) heavy cream, softened cream cheese, light brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, salt, large eggs and a 9 inch pie crust either refrigerated, frozen or you could use my recipe for Flaky Pie Crust. 
• For the Bourbon Whipped Cream you'll need: Heavy cream, powdered sugar, dark bourbon (i.e. Maker's Mark) or pure vanilla extract. You can also use both bourbon and vanilla.
• Kitchen gadgets you'll need: A hand mixer or a stand mixer, mixing bowls, measuring cups and spoons, a large spoon or spatula, a 9 inch deep dish pie dish and a baking rack to cool the pie after baking.
• Keep in mind with this pie, it's all in the mixing. Whip the filling thoroughly until it's smooth for the creamiest end result.
• If you choose to use a frozen deep dish pie shell there's no need to thaw it prior to filling and baking.
• Fresh whipped cream isn't as stable as a whipped topping so, it's best to make it the day you're going to serve it.
• Chill both the pie and whipped cream thoroughly in the refrigerator. It can be made up to 2 days in advance and stored chilled until serving. As I mentioned previously, wait to prepare the bourbon whipped cream on the day you plan on serving it.
