Ingredients
Crust
- 13 graham cracker sheets
- ½ cup salted butter melted
- 3 Tablespoons granulated sugar
Mousse
- 8 ounces cream cheese softened
- 15 ounces canned pumpkin puree
- ⅓ cup brown sugar packed
- 1 ½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 2 cups whipped topping (Cool Whip)
Whipped Cream Topping
- 2 cups heavy whipping cream
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- Optional garnish cinnamon
Instructions
- Lightly spray a 9-inch pie dish with non-stick cooking spray and set aside.
- In the bowl of a food processor, pulse together the graham crackers for 30 seconds or until they are a medium to fine crumb. If you don't have a food processer put the graham crackers into a ziplock bag and roll a rolling pin over them until they are a fine crumb.
- Drizzle the melted butter and add in the sugar. Pulse again until the consistency is that of wet sand.
- Press the graham cracker mixture into the bottom and halfway up the sides of your prepared pie dish using slightly damp fingers or the bottom of a measuring cup.
- Cover with plastic wrap and place the prepared crust in the freezer until you are finished with your mousse.
- Add your softened cream cheese and pumpkin puree to the bowl of a stand or hand mixer fitted with a whisk attachment. Mix well on low speed.
- Then add the brown sugar, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice to the pumpkin mixture. Mix on low until the mousse is smooth and incorporated.
- Gently fold in the whipped topping with a rubber spatula until light and fluffy.
- Remove your pie dish from the freezer and add the mousse mixture, spreading it out evenly in the pie crust.
- Cover your mousse with plastic wrap and place in the refrigerator for 6 hours or overnight.
- When you are ready to serve your pie, make the whipped cream in a stand or hand mixer bowl.
- Pour the heaving whipping cream into a the bowl and whip until stiff peaks form, about 7-10 minutes.
- Add the sugar and vanilla and beat further until the whipped cream is fluffy and combined.
- Spread the homemade whipped cream over the mousse and garnish with optional cinnamon garnish. Store any leftovers in the refrigerator.
Notes
- Wrap the pie dish in plastic wrap, then store it in the refrigerator for 2-3 days. I do not recommend freezing this pie since the texture will change and the pie will become watery and soggy when it thaws.
