Instructions

1. Start by making the pumpkin pie in a single pie crust. Once done, let the pie cool completely.

2. Once the pie cools, whip the heavy whipping cream, with an electric hand mixer, in a mixing bowl until stiff peaks form. Set aside.

3. In a separate mixing bow, cream the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract.

4. Add the pumpkin pie spice and pumpkin puree to the smooth cream cheese mixture and beat together until a smooth mixture is formed.

5. Fold in the whipped cream with the pumpkin cream cheese mixture.

6. With a rubber scrapper, evenly distribute the whipped topping on top of the cool pumpkin pie. A thick layer should be made.

7. Make sure to spread the creamy mixture across the entire pie. Sprinkle with more pumpkin pie spice for looks.

6. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to help the pie set. Serve and enjoy!

Hint: You can serve and eat this pie right after spreading the pumpkin cream cheese topping but the pie will have a better texture and blend if you refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Substitutions

• Store Bought Pumpkin Pie - turn any typical store bought pumpkin pie into a creamy sensation by adding the pumpkin whipped topping to the top.
• Gluten Free - use gluten free pie crust, store bought or homemade, instead of a traditional pie crust. Can be found in most freezer isles.

Variations

• Cream Cheese - don't want pumpkin puree in the creamed topping? Or don't have enough on hand. Simply add the whipping cream and cream cheese mixture together without the pumpkin puree.
