Double Layer Pumpkin Pie

== Description ==
I really don't like pumpkin pie, but somehow I became famous for this one among my husband's family. It really is an easy dessert to make. The only real "gotcha" is in spreading the pumpkin layer. If you want two definite layers, make sure the cream cheese layer is cold and has set before adding the pumpkin; otherwise the layers will mix. If you mess this up, just punt—mix the two layers together in the shell for an extra creamy pumpkin pie.
