Ingredients

For the Crust

  • 1 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs Substitution: Use crushed Oreos or gluten-free cookies for alternative flavors.
  • 4 tablespoons Unsalted Butter, melted Ensure it's fully melted for an even mix.

For the Cheesecake Filling

  • 1 package Cream Cheese, softened Make sure it’s at room temperature to blend smoothly.
  • cup Powdered Sugar Granulated sugar can work too, but may change the texture.
  • 3 tablespoons Brown Sugar Both light and dark varieties are interchangeable.
  • ½ cup Canned Pumpkin Puree Opt for pure pumpkin puree—not pie filling.
  • 1 teaspoon Pumpkin Pie Spice Use individual spices like nutmeg and ginger if needed.
  • ½ teaspoon Ground Cinnamon Freshly ground will give an even deeper taste.
  • ½ teaspoon Vanilla Extract Choose pure vanilla for the best taste.
  • 1 pinch Salt Balances the sweetness perfectly.
  • ¾ cup Whipped Topping, thawed For a healthier version, try making your own.

For Garnishing

  • Whipped Cream Adds a touch of elegance.
  • Graham Cracker Crumbs Sprinkled on top for a lovely crunch.

Instructions

Preparation

  • In a mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese with a hand mixer for about 1-2 minutes or until silky smooth.
  • Add in the canned pumpkin puree, powdered sugar, brown sugar, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice. Mix until creamy, around 2-3 minutes.
  • Gently fold the whipped topping into the pumpkin mixture to create a light and airy filling.
  • Crush the graham crackers into fine crumbs and mix with melted butter to create a crunchy base.
  • Layer half of the graham cracker mixture at the bottom of eight 4-oz jars, followed by a generous layer of the pumpkin cheesecake filling. Repeat until all ingredients are used.
  • Cover the jars and refrigerate for about four hours to set.
  • Before serving, top each jar with whipped cream and additional graham cracker crumbs.

Notes

Optional: Drizzle with caramel sauce for extra sweetness. For best texture, enjoy chilled.
