Ingredients
- 2 cups pumpkin pie filling
- ½ cup Whipped Cream Topping*
- 4 Tbsps Ghirardelli Sea Salt Caramel Sauce
- 4 Tbsps Roasted Crushed Hazelnuts
- 4 gingersnap cookies
Whipped Topping
- ½ cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 tbsps powdered sugar
Instructions
- For the pumpkin custard filling I used my super easy recipe for the Individual Pumpkin Pies on this blog but feel free to use your favorite recipe or make it even easier and buy store bought filling.
- For the Whipped Topping, just mix the cream and sugar in your electric mixer till it's lightly fluffy and holds its own shape and refrigerate for about 30 minutes before using (SEE NOTES)
- Lightly toast the hazelnuts and crush by putting them in a ziplock bag and beating them gently with a rolling pin (SEE NOTES)
- Just portion the pumpkin filling in 4 containers, top with your chilled cream, drizzle some caramel sauce and top with a sprinkle of the nuts and a cookie (SEE NOTES)
Notes
- Whipped Cream - Remember whenever making your own whipped cream it's very easy to over mix and get a buttery texture. Once you chill it, the cream firms up and holds up perfectly. Of course you're always welcome to use cool Whip or Reddi Wip but homemade whipped cream tastes amazing and is so easy to do I would highly recommend it.
- Hazelnuts - You want odd sized pieces to really get the right texture in your dessert and this is the best way to achieve that. You don't have hazelnuts on hand? swap for Pecans. You can really opt for any nut but I do think one of the two will work best with the particular flavors here. But since you'll be the artist of your own masterpiece feel free to experiment and please do share your ideas in the comments!

- Ramekins - I used plain white ramekins but clear dessert cups or glasses will work well too. Sometimes you can get mini sized disposable clear cups in different shapes and sizes and it makes for cute presentation
