Mini Pumpkin Pie Trifles are a decadent and creamy twist on a classic treat. Do you receive the Overtime Cook newsletter? Full of recipes, kitchen tips and deals and more! Click here to signup. Here's a little secret. I've never had pumpkin pie. Crazy, right? Well. What can I tell you? Growing up, pies were usually fruit based. We'd have apple pie, cherry pie, and others.
