Ingredient Notes + Variations

• Use 100% pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
• Make sure to use original cream cheese (not low fat) that has been brought to room temperature.
• Brown sugar, ground cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice add sweetness and spice to this perfect fall dessert.
• Any kind of whipped topping can be used. Cool Whip, either regular or reduced fat, is a good choice. A variety of whipped topping brands can be found in the freezer section of your grocery store.
• Ground walnuts or pecans make a great topping. Other ideas are a drizzle of caramel sauce, crushed gingersnap cookies, crushed Biscoff cookies, or a dollop of whipped cream on each individual piece.
• Any brand of graham crackers can be used. Depending on how many layers you make, a XXX oz. box should be plenty.

How To Make

• In a large bowl with an electric mixer, or bowl of a stand mixer, beat together pumpkin puree and cream cheese until completely mixed.
• Add brown sugar, cinnamon and pumpkin pie spice.
• Fold in the Cool Whip with a large rubber spatula.
• In an 8 x 8 or 9 x 9 pan, spread a layer of the pumpkin mixture.
• Top this bottom layer with graham crackers. You will have to break/cut some crackers to make them fit.
• Follow with alternating layers of the pumpkin/cream cheese mixture and graham crackers, ending with the pumpkin mixture.
• Top with ground walnuts or pecans if desired.
• Cover loosely with foil or plastic wrap, and refrigerate at least 6 hours. Overnight is best.

Tips for Success
