I think that's the real trick. A thicker crust was to make it just a little more substantial. Thanks for your comments and I look forward to the ravioli!

You brought the pregnant woman a piece of pie!! Very nice-much better than canned pumpkin, and good idea making the bottom crust thicker-it's not soggy at all. I'll bring you some pumpkin-hazelnut ravioli (if it turns out!)... :) Awesome!! You brought the pregnant woman a piece of pie!!

You are in luck because I have a piece at home waiting for you! I'll bring it in soon. ;-) Pam, I doubled the recipe but only brought one to work.

I didn't get any! :) Glad someone let you know about pate brisee; once you start making crusts this way, it's hard to go back to anything else (and it doesn't take that much time, either). Looks great! Hey-Aaron got 2 slices? I didn’t get any!

This is my go to link to see photos of different squash in the area: http://whatscookingamerica.net/squash.htm Thanks for the kind comments!

It does have the same consistancy and almost the same flavor: it comes out a little more buttery with the squash (in a good way:). I'm done w/ my first small slice and headed back for a second before everyone else discovers it. Good job. So you used butternut squash in place of pumpkin?
