Ingredients
  

  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup pure pumpkin puree
  • 3/4 cup powdered sugar, sifted
  • 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 20 ginger snap cookies, crumbled
  • 8 oz whipped topping, thawed

Method
 

  1. Beat the softened cream cheese in a large mixing bowl until smooth.
  2. Add the powdered sugar and pumpkin pie spice, mixing until well incorporated.
  3. Gently fold in the pumpkin puree to maintain an airy consistency.
  4. Fold in the whipped topping with a spatula until light and fluffy.
  5. Place a layer of crushed ginger snap cookies at the bottom of a glass trifle dish.
  6. Spread one-third of the pumpkin cream mixture over the cookie layer.
  7. Repeat the layering process two more times.
  8. Garnish with extra cookie crumbles and a sprinkle of cinnamon before serving.

Notes

Use full-fat cream cheese for the best, most decadent texture. Ensure the pumpkin puree is plain and not pre-mixed pie filling to control the spice levels. Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, though it is best served shortly after assembly to keep the cookies crunchy.
