Ingredients

  • 1 graham cracker pie crust
  • 1 pkg (8oz) cream cheese room temperature
  • 1 cup (plus 2 tbsp) half and half cream 10% MF
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 5 cups Cool Whip topping thawed
  • 2 pkgs Jell-O Vanilla Instant Pudding 4-serving size (3.4 oz)
  • 1 can pure pumpkin puree 15 oz size
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • ½ teaspoon ground ginger
  • ¼ teaspoon ground cloves

Instructions

  • The cream cheese must be room temperature or you will have lumps in the cheesecake layer. The Cool Whip should also be thawed.
  • Using a hand mixer, combine the cream cheese, sugar, and 2 tablespoons of half and half cream. Combine until the mixture is smooth with no lumps.
  • Fold in 3 cups of the Cool Whip topping and blend until combined. I find a large whisk works great for this, but don't beat the mixture, just gently fold to combine.
  • Spread the cream cheese mixture onto the graham cracker crust. This works best by placing dollops of the mixture and then spreading evenly over the graham crust.
  • Pour 1 cup of half-and-half cream into a large mixing bowl. Add both packages of the dry instant vanilla pudding mix. Beat vigorously with a wire whisk for 1 minute. Let stand for 3 minutes. DO NOT use an electric mixer to do this as the mixture gets too thick and becomes like glue.
  • Stir the pumpkin puree, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves to the pudding mixture. Mix until well combined.
  • Spread the pumpkin filling over the cream cheese layer. Again, do this by adding dollops and then spreading evenly. This will help ensure the nice layers.
  • Top with the whipped topping. Gently place plastic wrap over and chill in the fridge for at least 4 hours.
  • Optional: refrigerate without the whipped topping and add it just before serving.

Notes

Substitute the graham cracker crust with my Gingersnap Pie Crust
Pro Tip - I have found some brands of pumpkin puree are more watery. This will affect how your pie sets. If the canned pumpkin isn't thick looking strain the pumpkin puree.
