Steps:
- Heat oven to 350°F. Generously spray bottoms and sides of 24 regular-size muffin cups with cooking spray. Place cookie mix in large bowl. Cut in butter and 4 oz cream cheese, using pastry blender or fork, until mixture is crumbly. (Do not overmix.) Reserve 1 cup cookie mixture for topping; set aside. Firmly press 2 tablespoons remaining cookie mixture evenly into bottom of each muffin cup.
- In small bowl, add 3 oz cream cheese and stir until smooth. Add remaining pumpkin filling ingredients; mix well. Place 1 rounded teaspoon pumpkin filling in center of each cookie. Sprinkle each with 2 teaspoons reserved cookie topping.
- Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until edges of cookies are golden brown. Cool completely in pan, about 30 minutes. Run metal spatula around edge of cookies in muffin tin to loosen.

Tips:
- Use fresh pumpkin puree. Fresh pumpkin puree has a richer flavor and a smoother texture than canned pumpkin puree. If you don't have time to make your own pumpkin puree, look for canned pumpkin puree that is unsweetened and has no added ingredients.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter can make the pie tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Bake the pie until it is set. The pie is done baking when a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Don't overbake the pie, or it will become dry.
- Let the pie cool completely before serving. This will allow the pie to set and the flavors to meld.
Conclusion:
Pumpkin pie is a classic fall dessert that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. With its creamy, pumpkin-flavored filling and flaky, buttery crust, pumpkin pie is the perfect way to end a Thanksgiving or Christmas meal. These tips will help you make the best pumpkin pie possible, so you can enjoy this delicious dessert all season long.
