Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups (150g) graham cracker crumbs
  • 6 tablespoons (85g) unsalted butter, melted
  • 8 ounces (225g) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup (240g) pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup (120g) powdered sugar
  • 1 cup (240ml) heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon (5ml) vanilla extract
  • 2 teaspoons (6g) pumpkin spice blend

Instructions

  1. Make the crust: Combine graham cracker crumbs with melted butter in a mixing bowl. Stir until evenly coated, then press firmly into the bottom of a 9×9-inch dish. Chill in the fridge while preparing the filling.
  2. Whip the cream: Beat heavy cream with a hand mixer until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
  3. Create the filling: Beat softened cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth. Add pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, and pumpkin spice. Mix until well combined.
  4. Fold in the whipped cream: Gently fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin mixture using a spatula, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
  5. Assemble the dessert: Spread the pumpkin filling evenly over the chilled crust. Smooth the top with a spatula.
  6. Chill and serve: Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results. Slice and serve with optional toppings like whipped cream, chopped pecans, or a sprinkle of pumpkin spice.
