No Bake Pumpkin Pie
This creamy and lightly spiced no-bake pumpkin pie is the perfect cozy dessert for fall, requiring no oven and minimal prep time.
Ingredients
For the filling
- 1 cup Pumpkin puree, canned (not pumpkin pie mix)
- 8 ounces Cream cheese, softened
- 3/4 cup Powdered sugar Plus more if you like it sweeter
- 1.5 teaspoons Pumpkin pie spice
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 1.5 cups Heavy whipping cream, cold
- 1 prepared crust Graham cracker crust, store bought or homemade
- 1 pinch Salt
Instructions
Preparation
- In a mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until it is smooth and lump free.
- Add pumpkin puree, powdered sugar, pumpkin pie spice, vanilla, and a pinch of salt. Beat again until it looks creamy and evenly colored.
- In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin mixture in two or three additions to keep it fluffy.
- Spoon the filling into your crust, smooth the top, and chill for at least 6 hours, preferably overnight.
Notes
Add a cloud of whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon before serving for a cute presentation. Use a little less powdered sugar for a lighter pie, or experiment with various crusts for different flavors.
