Time 45m

Number Of Ingredients 12

30 chocolate wafers
2 tablespoons dark-brown sugar
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
1 1/2 cups pure pumpkin puree (from a 15-ounce can)
4 ounces cream cheese, room temperature
1/2 cup packed dark-brown sugar
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 cup pure maple syrup
1 cup cold heavy cream
1 cup cold heavy cream
1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Preheat oven to 325 degrees. In a food processor, process wafers and brown sugar until finely ground. With machine running, slowly add butter and process until mixture resembles wet sand. Firmly press crumb mixture into bottom and up sides of a 9-inch pie plate. Bake until crust is dry and set, 10 to 12 minutes. Let cool completely in plate on a wire rack.
  • Make the filling: In a clean food processor, process pumpkin puree, cream cheese, brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg until smooth, scraping down sides as needed. With machine running, add maple syrup in a slow, steady stream. In a large bowl, using an electric mixer, beat cream on high until stiff peaks form, 3 minutes. With a rubber spatula, gently fold pumpkin mixture into whipped cream. Spoon filling into crust and refrigerate until set, 3 hours (or up to 1 day).
  • Make the topping: In a medium bowl, using an electric mixer, beat cream and confectioners' sugar on high until stiff peaks form, 3 minutes. With spatula, mound topping over pie and serve immediately.

This pie is the perfect combination of sweet and tart. The pumpkin mousse is light and fluffy, and the gingersnap crust adds a nice bit of spice.

I had some trouble getting the crust to set. I think I might have over-mixed the dough.

This pie was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still very good. I think next time I'll use less sugar in the filling.

This pie was a huge hit at our Thanksgiving gathering. Everyone loved the creamy, pumpkin mousse filling and the graham cracker crust was the perfect complement. It was also very easy to make, which is always a bonus.
