This is my husband's favorite dessert this time of year. It's so yummy! The last family event I took it to, all my sisters-in-law wanted the recipe. That's always a good sign!

1/2 tsp. salt
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 tsp. ground ginger
1/4 tsp. ground cloves
2 eggs
1 (15 oz.) can pumpkin
1 (12 oz.) can evaporated milk

Mix sugar, salt, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves. Beat eggs separately. Stir eggs and pumpkin into sugar mixture and combine will. Gradually add evaporated milk. Combine well. Pour over crust.
