In a medium saucepan, combine the pumpkin puree, whole milk, granulated sugar, brown sugar, cornstarch, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, and salt.
Whisk the ingredients together over medium heat until smooth and well combined.
In a separate bowl, whisk the egg yolks until smooth. Gradually, add about 1/2 cup of the warm pumpkin mixture into the egg yolks, whisking constantly to temper the eggs.
Slowly pour the tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan with the remaining pumpkin mixture, whisking constantly to prevent curdling.
Continue to cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it thickens and starts to bubble, about 5-7 minutes.
Once thickened, remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Pour the pudding into individual serving dishes or ramekins, and let it cool to room temperature. Then, transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours, or until fully set.
Before serving, top with whipped cream and garnish with crumbled gingersnap cookies, if desired.
