Scale
  • 2 cup gingersnap cookie crumbs
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • ¼ teaspoon kosher salt

  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream, very cold
  • 2 tablespoon powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoon maple syrup
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F. In a bowl, mix the gingersnap crumbs, melted butter, and salt until well combined. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of a 9″ pie plate. Bake for 8-10 minutes, then let the crust cool completely.

2. In a stand mixer, beat the cream cheese and powdered sugar until smooth. Add the pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice, mixing until fully incorporated. In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin mixture until the mousse is silky and uniform.

3. Spread the Pumpkin Mousse evenly into the cooled gingersnap crust.

4. In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream, powdered sugar, maple syrup, cinnamon, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form. Pipe or dollop the Cinnamon Whipped Cream over the top of the Pumpkin Mousse Pie.

5. Refrigerate the Pumpkin Mousse Pie for at least 2 hours before serving. Slice and enjoy this creamy, flavorful dessert!

Notes

Use high-quality, pure pumpkin puree for the best flavor and texture.

For a dairy-free or vegan version, substitute the cream cheese and heavy cream with plant-based alternatives.

Achieve the perfect mousse consistency by gently folding the whipped cream into the pumpkin mixture.

Store leftover Pumpkin Mousse Pie in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
