I found pumpkin spice instant pudding on the store shelf and was thrilled (but it's only seasonal so you have to look hard & quick). It's excellent & beats the standard vanilla pudding by a mile. Thanks a bunch!

Love, love this recipe! The first time I made it, I found out I didn't have vanilla pudding so I improvised with 1 white chocolate and 1 cheesecake pudding and it turned out SO good! I tried it again later with the vanilla pudding and it wasn't quite as good, in my opinion, but still yummy.

I save a few of the pralines to put on the top as a garnish. My family asks me to make this at holidays. I make extra for home because there is never any leftovers. Just because you don't really like pumpkin pie, don't ignore this recipe. It's nothing like a normal pumpkin pie...ask my girlfriend who hates pumpkin pie.
