Sweet and mild pumpkin pie - I gave twist Japanese taste!

I baked pumpkin pie and gave twist it for suit Japanese people taste. I like standard american pumpkin pie! It is tasty and good balance of cinnamon flavor and sweet pumpkin. Of course Japanese people like eat sweets, they likes mild and rich taste. But they are unacceptable to strong spicy flavor. I used fresh cream instead of evaporated milk and decrease spicy flavor. You can enjoy sweet and mild pumpkin taste.
