Can I use fresh pumpkin instead of canned pumpkin purée?

Yes, but be sure to cook and puree the fresh pumpkin until smooth, and drain any excess water to avoid a watery texture in your fluff.

Is it necessary to chill the Pumpkin Fluff before serving?

Chilling is important as it allows the pudding to set and the flavors to combine, resulting in the light and airy texture this dessert is known for.
