Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Pumpkin puree (canned or homemade)
- 1 cup Heavy whipping cream
- 4 ounces Cream cheese (softened)
- 0.5 cup Brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon Pumpkin pie spice
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon Gelatin powder
- 2 tablespoons Cold water
- Whipped cream (optional, for garnish)
- Chopped pecans or cinnamon for garnish (optional)
Instructions
In a small bowl, combine the gelatin powder and cold water. Let it sit for 5 minutes to bloom.
In the meantime, in a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until smooth and creamy using an electric mixer.
Add the pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon to the cream cheese mixture. Mix until fully combined and smooth.
Heat the bloomed gelatin in the microwave for 10-15 seconds or until fully dissolved. Let it cool slightly, then stir it into the pumpkin mixture. Mix well to incorporate.
In a separate bowl, whip the heavy whipping cream to stiff peaks using an electric mixer or handheld whisk.
Gently fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin mixture in 2-3 additions, being careful not to deflate the airy texture.
Spoon the mixture evenly into serving dishes or ramekins, smoothing the tops with a spoon. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or until set.
Before serving, garnish with whipped cream, chopped pecans, or a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.
