Ingredients
Main Ingredients
- 1.75 cup unsweetened pumpkin puree
- 1.75 cup cold whole or 2% milk chilled
- 3.4 oz instant vanilla pudding mix
- 2 tbsp light brown sugar packed
- 1.5 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 0.25 tsp fine sea salt
- 1 cup lightly sweetened whipped cream for serving, optional
- 0.5 cup crushed gingersnaps or graham cracker crumbs for garnish, optional
Instructions
Preparation Steps
- Whisk the instant pudding mix with the cold milk in a large bowl until it begins to thicken, about 2 minutes.
- Stir in the pumpkin puree until the mixture is smooth and evenly colored.
- Mix in the brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, vanilla, and salt until creamy.
- Cover and chill for at least 10 minutes to set and thicken.
- Spoon into cups, add a dollop of whipped cream, and sprinkle with cookie crumbs if using. Serve cold.
Notes
Variation: Swap the vanilla pudding with butterscotch pudding for a deeper caramel note. For a lighter dessert, use skim milk and skip the added sugar. Make-ahead tip: Portion into jars, cover, and refrigerate up to 3 days; add toppings just before serving.
