This is our family's pumpkin pie!
I can get domestically produced pumpkin for cheap, and Halloween is coming, so I made this pie for my family's dessert.

If you do not like the pumpkin skins, cut them off before heating in microwave.
Do not worry if the pumpkin filling flows out in Step 11. It won't bother you after baking.
You do not have to add chocolate. For 8 pieces. Recipe by Chisora
