Notes
Make sure the walnuts are chopped small. The store bought ones are typically okay but if they’re bigger chunks, I recommend giving them a quick rough chop with a knife anyway. You want them to add crunch but not be an entire mouthful of walnut.Store in the refrigerator for up to five days before tossing. You can either serve it cold directly out of the fridge or put in a cold oven, preheat to 350 degrees, and let it warm up with the oven to reheat.Ingredient Notes/Substitutions:
Pure pumpkin - this may also be called pumpkin puree, just don't use pie filling
Sweetened condensed milk - you can also use evaporated milk if you don't have this, I just prefer the sweetened version.
Walnuts - can replace with chopped pecans instead if you prefer
