1. In a saucepan, mix brown sugar with water and cinnamon. Bring to a boil and cook until reduced by 1/4, about 15 minutes. This should form a syrup.
2. Add pumpkin and turn heat to low, simmering about 45 minutes, until translucent.
3. If you want to make this ahead, remove the pumpkin after this and store it separately from the syrup. For serving, reheat pumpkin in syrup.
4. Stir in heavy cream right before serving this pumpkin over a dish of ice cream.
