Pumpkin Cream Pie Trifles
Description
Pumpkin Cream Pie Trifles build on whipped cream combined with powdered sugar and vanilla, folded into a spiced pumpkin and cream cheese mixture. Crushed gingersnaps create a crunchy crumb layer that adds texture contrast. Layering these components in glasses creates distinct layers of creamy pumpkin, light whipped peaks, and slightly softened but still textured ginger cookie crumb.
The flavor balances the mild sweetness of the pumpkin cream and whipped topping with warm cinnamon and the slightly spicy bite of gingersnaps. The trifles are chilled but should be served within a few hours to maintain the crispness of the cookie crumbs, preventing them from becoming overly soggy.
This dessert works well served individually for gatherings or as a simple seasonal treat that requires no baking. The portion size and presentation make it straightforward to serve and enjoy immediately after preparation.
Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups heavy cream cold
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 8 oz cream cheese softened
- 1 ¼ cups pumpkin puree
- ¾ cup powdered sugar
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 cups gingersnaps crushed
Instructions
- Using a hand mixer or stand mixer, beat cream, ¼ cup powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
- In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese, pumpkin puree, ¾ cup powdered sugar, and cinnamon until smooth and combined. Fold ½ cup of whipped cream into pumpkin mixture.
- In small glasses or individual trifle dishes, layer the crushed gingersnaps, pumpkin cream, and whipped cream. Top each portion with a sprinkling of crushed gingersnaps.
Notes
- Serve these trifles within a few hours of assembly to keep the gingersnap crumbs crisp.
