  Amount  Measure       Ingredient -- Preparation Method
--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   8      ounces        cream cheese; softened -- 1 pk
     3/4  cup           brown sugar -- firmly packed
   1      teaspoon      cinnamon -- ground
     1/2  teaspoon      ginger -- ground
     1/2  teaspoon      salt
     1/4  teaspoon      cloves -- ground
   3                    eggs -- lg
   1      cup           pumpkin; mashed -- canned
   1      cup           milk
   1      teaspoon      vanilla
   1                    unbaked 9-inch pie shell
   1      cup           dairy sour cream
   2      tablespoons   sugar

Cream the cream cheese, brown sugar, spices and salt together, in a bowl, 
until they are light and fluffy, using an electric mixer set on medium 
speed.  Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. 
Blend in the pumpkin, milk, and vanilla.  Pour the mixture into the 
unbaked pie shell.  Bake in a preheated 375 degree F. oven for 45 to 50 
minutes or until a knife inserted halfway between the edge and center 
comes out clean.  Cool slightly on a wire rack. Meanwhile blend the sour 
cream and sugar together and spread over the top of the warm pie.  Return 
the pie to the oven and bake an additional 3 to 5 minutes or just until 
the topping is set.  Cool on a wire rack. Cover and chill in the 
refrigerator before serving.
