Steps:

• For crust:
• Preheat oven to 350°F. Blend first 3 ingredients in processor until mixture resembles coarse meal. Add cream and process until moist clumps form. Gather dough into ball, flatten into disk. Wrap in plastic; chill 15 minutes.
• Roll out dough on floured surface to 14-inch round. Transfer dough to 9-inch glass pie dish. Trim overhang to 1 inch. Fold overhang under. Make cut in crust edge at 1/2 inch intervals. Bend alternate edge pieces inward. Freeze 15 minutes.
• Line crust with foil, pressing firmly. Bake until sides are set, about 10 minutes. Remove foil. Bake crust until pale brown, about 10 minutes more. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F.
• Spread preserves over crust; pour in filling. Bake until filling puffs at edges and center is almost set, about 55 minutes. Cool on rack. Cover; chill until cold. (Can be made 1 day ahead.)
• For filling:
• Using whisk, mix first 6 ingredients in bowl until no lumps remain. Blend in pumpkin, whipping cream, sour cream and eggs.
• Spread preserves over crust; pour in filling. Bake until filling puffs at edges and center is almost set, about 55 minutes. Cool on rack. Cover; chill until cold. (Can be made 1 day ahead.)

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
• In large mixing bowl, combine pumpkin and eggs until well mixed.
• Add the sugars, vanilla extract, cinnamon, ginger, cloves and salt; mix well.
• Add the evaporated milk gradually.
• Pour into pie shell.
• Bake for 15 minutes at 425 degrees.
• Reduce heat to 350 degrees and bake for another 40-50 minutes, depending on your oven.
• Pie is done when knife inserted in the middle comes out clean or until the center is no longer jiggly.
• Do not overcook; this leads to the pie cracking.
• Cool pie on rack for two hours.
• Serve at room temperature or refrigerate (I like mine cold).
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Mix and beat well first four ingredients.
• Add rest of ingredients and beat until thoroughly mixed.
• Put in 9 or 10 inch unbaked pie crust (I might try a gingersnap one this year).
• Bake at 375°F for an hour or until knife comes out clean.

Steps:

• For crust:
• Mix flour and salt in processor. Add butter and shortening; process until mixture resembles coarse meal. With machine running, add ice water 1 tablespoonful at a time and process until moist clumps form. Gather into ball; flatten into disk. Wrap in plastic; chill 30 minutes. (Can be made 2 days ahead. Keep chilled.)
• Roll out pastry on lightly floured surface to 13-inch round. Transfer pastry to 10-inch-diameter glass pie dish. Fold edge under and crimp. Pierce pastry all over with fork. Freeze pastry 45 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 450°F. Bake crust until pale golden, about 15 minutes. Transfer to rack and cool. Reduce oven temperature to 375°F.
• Meanwhile, prepare filling:
• Whisk first 10 ingredients in large bowl until smooth. Whisk in all remaining ingredients. Pour filling into crust.
• Bake pie 20 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 325°F. Bake until filling no longer moves in center when dish is shaken, about 30 minutes longer. Transfer pie to rack and cool completely. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Bring to room temperature before serving.)
