To make hot water dough: Beat lard or shortening and salt in a large bowl;gradually, beat in boiling water.Cool to room temperature,stirring, occasionally to prevent water and lard from separating.Beat in 2 cups flour,then form dough into 2 balls.Flatten each portion into a 6 disk.Wrap in plastic wrap and chill.(If desired refrigerate overnight or freeze up to 1 month.) To make pumpkin filling: Mix sugar,light brown sugar,flour, bitters,if desired,cinnamon,ginger,salt,nutmeg and cloves in a large bowl.Stir in egg;set aside.Melt butter in a large skillet over low heat.Add pumpkin puree;simmer,stirring occasionally, until puree thickens slightly,about 10 minutes.Gradually,stir hot pumpkin puree into the sugar mixture.Stir in evaporated milk,sweet milk and 1 cup water.(If desired,cover and refrigerate overnight.)
