Cut the pumpkin into small pieces and cook it with sugar, cinnamon, and a hint of orange liqueur over low heat, stirring constantly until it's well mashed
After cooking, strain the mixture through a fine-mesh sieve
Add the beaten eggs, cornstarch, butter, and orange liqueur
Mix well to combine
Pour the mixture into a buttered mold and smooth out the top
Bake in a moderate oven for 45 minutes or until set
Unmold once cooled and garnish with whipped cream

Note: We experimented with various pumpkin puddings, and this one was certainly the best.
