1.) Mix together the pumpkin, milk, sugar, cinnamon and eggs.
2.) Pour mixture into 9x13x2 pan lined with wax paper. (This keeps the dessert from sticking to the pan.)

over the top.
4.) Bake at 350 for 50-60 minutes. Turn upside down onto a platter and remove wax paper. Allow to cool thoroughly. When cooled, cover with topping mixture and refrigerate.
