Pumpkin Delight Recipe
I have a confession. I don't like pie very much. I'll have a sliver of pumpkin pie or apple pie, but I really only love chocolate pie, lemon meringue pie, and pies that are more cheesecake than pie. I don't really care for the crust (even homemade by people who swear by their crusts). So, this pumpkin delight is wonderful. It is like a fabulous pumpkin pie, but with a sweet, crusty topping.
But why should you make it? Well, if you want something pumpkin for the hollidays and need to make a lot but don't feel like making two or three pies, this makes a 13x9 pan full of deliciousness. It's also good without the nuts, if you don't happen to have them on hand. Did I mention that it's super easy?
Adapted from my grandmother's recipe, just the smallest bit.

In a large bowl, mix with a hand mixer:
6 eggs
1 large can pumpkin (29 oz)
