No-bake pumpkin cheesecake mousse

To make the crust for this pumpkin cheesecake mousse, start by crushing Graham crackers into fine crumbs using a food processor or mixer. Then, mix in melted butter and sugar until well combined. Transfer two tablespoons of the crumb mixture into individual glass jars and press it evenly into the bottom.

For the mousse filling, whip heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract in a stand mixing bowl until soft peaks are formed. Set the whipped cream aside in a separate bowl.

Next, in the same mixing bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar at a low speed until combined. Add pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, ground cinnamon, and salt, and continue to mix until everything is well combined.

Fold half the prepared whipped cream into the pumpkin cream cheese mixture using a spatula.

Transfer the pumpkin cheesecake mousse mixture to a piping bag and pipe it over the crust, filling each glass jar until it is three fourth full.

Fill the remaining whipped cream in another piping bag with a star nozzle and pipe it over the mousse. Refrigerate the jars for at least 2 hours to set.

When ready to serve, sprinkle some ground cinnamon over the pumpkin mousse for an extra flavour (optional). Enjoy your delicious pumpkin cheesecake mousse!
