Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Pumpkin puree
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 0.5 cup Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground nutmeg
- 0.25 teaspoon Ground ginger
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.5 cup Gingersnap cookies (crushed)
- optional Whipped cream (optional for serving)
- optional Pumpkin spice for garnish (optional)
Instructions
In a large bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, ground cinnamon, ground nutmeg, ground ginger, and vanilla extract. Mix until the ingredients are well combined and smooth.
In a separate chilled bowl, use an electric mixer to whip the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin mixture, being careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
Prepare 6 small serving dishes or freezer-safe dessert cups. Spoon the mixture evenly into the dishes, filling each one about three-quarters full.
Sprinkle the crushed gingersnap cookies over the top of each dessert, pressing down slightly to create a crumbly layer.
Cover each dish tightly with plastic wrap and place them in the freezer. Allow the desserts to freeze for at least 4 hours or until completely firm.
When ready to serve, remove the desserts from the freezer and let them sit at room temperature for 5 minutes to soften slightly.
Optionally, top with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of pumpkin spice for garnish. Serve immediately and enjoy your Frosty Pumpkin Dessert!
