Ingredients
1 ½ cups (180 grams) graham cracker crumbs
¼ cup (55 grams) light brown sugar
6 tablespoons (85 grams) salted butter
½ teaspoon (1.5 grams) ground cinnamon
1 ½ cups (375 ml) heavy cream
¼ cup (30 grams) powdered sugar
1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
16 ounce (450 grams) cream cheese
¾ cup (165 grams) brown sugar
1 cup (244 grams) canned pumpkin puree
2 teaspoon (4 g) pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, light brown sugar, melted butter, and ground cinnamon to form the crust. Press mixture firmly into the bottom of a lined 9×9 inch baking pan.
- In another bowl, beat the room temperature cream cheese and brown sugar until smooth. Add pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract, mixing until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin cheesecake mixture until fully incorporated.
- Spread the pumpkin cheesecake filling over the prepared crust in the baking pan, smoothing the top. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until set.
- Once set, cut into bars, serve with additional whipped cream if desired, and enjoy!
Notes
For best results, allow the bars to chill overnight for a firmer texture. Top with toasted pecans for added crunch.
