Ingredients
- – 1 cup (240 ml) pumpkin puree
- – 1 cup (240 ml) cream cheese, or non-whipped at room temperature
- – 1 teaspoon (5 ml) pumpkin pie spice
- – 3 tablespoons (45 ml) brown sugar
- – 2 cups (480 ml) heavy whipping cream
- – 2 tablespoons (30 ml) powdered sugar
- – 2 sleeves graham crackers, crushed (about 2 1/2 cups (600 ml))
- – 10.8 oz (320 ml) mason jars
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, cream cheese at room temperature, pumpkin pie spice, and brown sugar using an electric mixer until the mixture is smooth and well-blended, approximately 2 minutes.
- In another bowl, or using a stand mixer, whip the heavy whipping cream together with the powdered sugar until the consistency is light and airy, roughly 5 minutes.
- Assemble the parfaits in mason jars by layering the components in this sequence: crushed graham crackers, the pumpkin cream cheese blend, and the whipped cream. Repeat the layering process to ensure at least two layers of each component fill the jar.
- Serve the parfaits cold.
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature for easier incorporation with the pumpkin puree.
- Whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form to achieve a light and airy texture in the parfait.
- Layer the components evenly in the mason jars to create an attractive and delicious dessert presentation.
