Ingredients
Crust:
1 ½ cups (150 g) graham cracker crumbs
5 tbsp (70 g) unsalted butter, melted
2 tbsp (25 g) brown sugar
½ tsp ground cinnamon (optional)
Filling:
8 oz (225 g) cream cheese, softened
¾ cup (180 g) pumpkin puree
½ cup (60 g) powdered sugar
½ tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp ground cinnamon
½ tsp ground nutmeg
¼ tsp ground ginger
⅛ tsp ground cloves
½ cup (120 ml) heavy whipping cream (cold)
Topping (Optional):
½ cup whipped cream or whipped topping
Crushed graham crackers or cinnamon for garnish
Instructions
Make the Crust:
Mix graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, melted butter, and optional cinnamon. Press 1 tbsp into mini muffin liners. Chill for 15–20 minutes.
Make the Filling:
Beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add pumpkin puree, powdered sugar, vanilla, and spices. Beat until fluffy.
Whip the Cream:
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream to stiff peaks. Gently fold into the pumpkin mixture.
Assemble:
Pipe or spoon the filling onto chilled crusts. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
Garnish and Serve:
Top with whipped cream and a sprinkle of graham crumbs or cinnamon. Serve cold.
Notes
Don’t use canned pumpkin pie filling — it’s pre-sweetened and spiced.
Soften cream cheese fully to avoid lumps.
For firmer texture, chill overnight.
Toasting crust crumbs is optional but boosts flavor.
