Pumpkin Perfection

Today is my sister in law's birthday. Happy Birthday Kerrie. So, today's recipe is for a dessert. However, everything she eats has to be gluten free. So, I am not sure if she would be able to adapt this or not. This is Paula Deen's recipe. We have made this for holidays, friends who have had surgery, parties, etc. It has always been a hit.
