My favorite of the several recipes I have made.
Preheat oven to 350°F.
In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, cream butter and 3/4 cup brown sugar at medium speed until light and fluffy, about 1 minute. Beat in the pumpkin puree, egg yolks, vanilla extract, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, cumin and salt, then beat in the cream and bourbon. Note: Use spices to taste amounts are a recommendation.
In a stainless steel bowl, using clean beaters, beat the egg whites until stiff but not dry, then fold into the pumpkin mixture until no white streaks remain.
Alternate egg method: Cream eggs and butter until fluffy. Switch beaters to whisk attachment. Add eggs one at a time every 3-4 min with mixer on high. Mix all other ingredients in separate bowl (reduce pumpkin puree to 1 ½ cups or less) and combine egg mixture and other ingredients with beaters on low until smooth. This can yield a lighter texture.
Pour the custard into the pre-baked pie shell. Bake the pie in the middle of the oven for 1 hour, or until risen and golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with only a few moist crumbs attached or no longer jiggles in the center. Let cool and serve.
