2 cups graham cracker crumbs

½ cup margarine, melted

12 ounces cream cheese, softened

3 eggs, beaten

¾ cup white sugar

1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree

3 eggs, separated

½ cup milk

¾ cup white sugar

½ teaspoon ground cinnamon

½ teaspoon ground nutmeg

1 teaspoon salt

2 (.25 ounce) packages unflavored gelatin

¼ cup cold water

¼ cup boiling water

½ cup white sugar

1 (8 ounce) container frozen whipped topping, thawed

3 tablespoons ground walnuts

Directions

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Lightly grease one 9×13 inch pan.

In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs and margarine. Evenly press into prepared pan to form a crust.

Blend together the cream cheese, eggs and sugar; evenly spread over crust and bake for 20 minutes in the preheated oven. Set aside to cool.

In a 2 quart saucepan, combine the pumpkin, egg yolks, milk, 3/4 cup sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved. Set aside to cool.

Combine gelatin and cold water in a small bowl and allow to soften for 5 minutes. Mix in boiling water to dissolve. Stir into the pumpkin mixture.

In a mixing bowl, beat egg whites until frothy. Gradually add 1/2 cup sugar; beat until stiff. Fold into pumpkin mixture and pour over cream cheese layer. Refrigerate until firm, about 4 hours, and cut into squares. Top with whipped topping and sprinkle with walnuts.
