*** PIE ***
1. Roll the crust dough on a lightly floured surface to a 1/8" thickness
and place in the bottom of a 10" pie pan. Trim and flute the edges.
2. Preheat the oven to 450'. Combine the pumpkin, honey, molasses and
spices in a food processor and process until well blended. With the
processor on, add eggs one at a time, processing a few seconds after each
addition. Transfer to a large bowl.
3. Beat the cream in a large bowl until doubled in volume. Fold into the
pumpkin mixture. Pour into prepared pie shell and bake 10 minutes. Reduce
the heat to 350' and bake until a toothpick inserted in the center comes
out clean, about 40 minutes longer. Arrange cranberries in a circle on top
of pie.
