Description

A delightful fall dessert featuring layers of creamy pumpkin and tangy cream cheese, all on a buttery graham cracker crust.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • ½ tsp nutmeg
  • ½ tsp cloves
  • 1 cup whipped cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs and melted butter. Press mixture into a 9×13 inch baking dish. Bake for about 10 minutes until golden. Let cool.
  2. In a large bowl, mix softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until creamy. Spread evenly over the cooled crust.
  3. In another bowl, combine pumpkin puree, spices, and vanilla extract. Fold in whipped topping gently, then spread over the cream cheese layer.
  4. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  5. Before serving, top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon.

Notes

For a dairy-free option, use coconut oil instead of butter and cashew cream in place of cream cheese.
