Step 1
Cook the pasta in a large saucepan of boiling salted water, following the packet instructions, until al dente. Drain and return to the pan.
Step 2
Meanwhile, melt the butter in a frying pan over medium heat and cook the onion until soft and golden. Add the garlic and cinnamon and cook for another minute.
Step 3
Pour the cream into the pan, add the pumpkin and honey and simmer for 5 minutes or until the pumpkin is tender, the sauce has reduced and has thickened slightly and is heated through.
Step 4
Add the cheese and stir until it has melted. Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper. Pour the sauce over the pasta and toss until well combined. Serve sprinkled with the chives and extra cheese.
