Instructions

  1. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment, beat 1½ cups of heavy cream along with the maple syrup and vanilla on medium speed until stiff peaks form, about 2 minutes.
  2. Remove the mixture to a bowl and place it in the refrigerator while you make the pudding base.
  3. Add the pumpkin puree, cream cheese, and pumpkin pie spice to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and beat them together until combined, about 1 minute.
  4. With the mixer on low, slowly add the milk and the remaining ½ cup of heavy cream. Mix until combined.
  5. Add the pudding mix and whisk on medium speed until the mixture is well combined and thickened slightly, about 2 minutes.
  6. Gently fold the whipped cream mixture into the pudding mixture.
  7. Spoon or pipe the mousse into serving containers. Chill for at least 2 hours before serving.
  8. Garnish with crumbled gingersnaps or graham crackers.

Notes

  • Storage: Store pumpkin mousse in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
