PUMPKIN ICE CREAM
This quick and easy pumpkin frozen treat recipe was published many years ago in the local newspaper of my hometown when I was a kid. (Many, many years ago!) It was from a local home extension service's home economist.

1 cup pumpkin pulp
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp ginger
1/4 tsp salt
1/4 tsp nutmeg
1 quart vanilla ice cream

Mix pumpkin, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, salt, and nutmeg together. Soften ice cream and blend with the pumpkin mixture. Freeze until firm and you have your own homemade pumpkin ice cream.

Note: You can add chopped nuts or pralines to this recipe for crunch and extra richness, if desired!

Enjoy!
