It does say a half cup plus 2 tablespoons sugar. What does one do with the half cup of sugar? I'm gonna try it and tweak it..I guess.

Thanks for making us aware! We've fixed the instructions to include the 1/2 cup of sugar.

The recipe calls for 1/2 C plus 2 Tbsp sugar, yet the directions only tell you what to ddo with the 2 Tbsp sugar. It seems that if you used the 1/2 C sugar in thee pumpkin mixture, it would be too sweet. Any thoughts on this?
