Time 15m

Yield 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup pumpkin puree
1 cup whipped cream cheese, or non-whipped cream cheese, at room temperature
3 tablespoons brown sugar
1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, plus more for garnish (optional)
2 cups heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons confectioners' sugar
About 2 1/2 cups (2 sleeves) graham crackers, crushed

Steps:

  • Combine the pumpkin puree, cream cheese, brown sugar and 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice in a large bowl with an electric mixer until thoroughly combined, about 2 minutes.
  • Whisk the heavy cream and confectioners' sugar in a second large bowl or in the bowl of a stand mixer with the whisk attachment, until light and fluffy, about 5 minutes.
  • Layer the crushed graham crackers, pumpkin cream cheese mixture, and whipped cream in ten 8-ounce Mason jars. Repeat the layers until the jars are filled and contain at least 2 layers of each ingredient. Sprinkle a pinch of pumpkin pie spice over each parfait, if desired. Serve chilled.
