Ingredients
  

  • 12 oz ginger snap cookies
  • 1/4 cup melted butter
  • 8 oz cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie filling)
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • q.s. chopped pecans for garnish

Equipment

  • Mixing bowls (medium and large)

Method
 

  1. Crush the ginger snap cookies into fine crumbs and mix with melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press into the bottom of a trifle dish.
  2. In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth, then add pumpkin puree, granulated sugar, and pumpkin pie spice. Mix until well combined and smooth.
  3. In a chilled bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin mixture until no white streaks remain.
