Number Of Ingredients 12

FOR THE CRUST
1 package(s) graham crackers (about 9 crackers)
1/2 stick(s) butter
2 tablespoon(s) brown sugar
FOR THE FILLING
1 package(s) cream cheese, softened
15 ounce(s) pumpkin puree
3 teaspoon(s) pumpkin pie spice
1 cup(s) granulated sugar
1 ounce(s) sugar free cheesecake-flavored instant package pudding mix (or 1/3 of a non-sugar free instant pudding may be used)
14 ounce(s) sweetened condensed milk
12 ounce(s) container frozen whipped topping, plus extra for garnish if desired

Steps:

1.Place the graham crackers in the bowl of a food processor and pulse the crackers into fine crumbs. Add the melted butter, sugar and brown sugar and pulse until combined.
Spoon the crumbs into individual 9-ounce plastic cups (or other individual sized cups for serving). Place in the refrigerator to set while you are preparing the filling.
In the bowl of a stand mixer with the paddle attachment, beat the cream cheese until light and creamy.
4.Add the pumpkin, pumpkin pie spice, and pudding mix and beat until completely mixed, scraping down the sides and bottom of the bowl to ensure that all ingredients are well combined.
Add the sweetened condensed milk and mix again until well combined.
Change your stand mixture attachment to the wire whisk. On slow speed, fold in the tub of Cool Whip until well combined.
Allow the mixture to sit in the refrigerator for about an hour to firm up.
Using a large pastry bag with a large tip, or a spoon, top the graham cracker crust in each cup with the pumpkin mixture and refrigerate until ready to serve.
