For Stephanie

My friend Stephanie and I end up at Gustav's quite often. She has mentioned, on more than one occasion, that they used to have great Pumpkin Martinis during Oktoberfest but they don't seem to offer that drink anymore. Well, I got my Rachael Ray magazine today and in it is a recipe for Pumpkin Martinis! They may not be exactly the same but these look pretty yummy. So Steph, this one is for you.

Pumpkin Pie Martinis
Makes 2 drinks
********************
Ice Cubes
2 ounces (1/4 cup) vanilla vodka
2 ounces (1/4 cup) creme de cacao
1/4 cup heavy cream
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Whipped cream, for garnish
********************
1. Fill a cocktail shaker halfway with ice cubes. Add the vanilla vodka, creme de cacao, heavy cream and pumpkin pie spice and shake well.
2. Dip the rims of 2 martini glasses into a bowl of whipped cream. Strain the cocktail into the glasses.
