Ingredients

Graham Cracker Crust

Cheesecake Layer

  • 4 ounce cream cheese, softened
  • 1 tablespoon milk
  • 1 tablespoon sugar
  • 1 ½ cups frozen whipped topping, thawed

Pumpkin Layer

  • 2 boxes (3.4 oz) instant vanilla pudding powder 4 serving size
  • 1 cup milk
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 can (14 oz) pumpkin

Topping

  • 2 cups frozen whipped topping, thawed

Instructions

Graham Cracker Crust

  • In a microwave safe dish, or using a saucepan over medium heat, melt your butter.
  • In a good-sized mixing bowl, add Graham cracker crumbs, pumpkin pie spice and sugar. Stir until blended.
  • Pour melted butter all over your Graham cracker crumbs and sugar. Stir to combine.
  • Press crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and sides of a 9-inch pie plate.  Do your best to firmly press the crumb mixture down so it will form a solid crust to hold your slice of pie. Also, try and make the surface as smooth and flat as possible.
  • Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, if not two.

Cheesecake Layer

  • In a medium-sized bowl, beat cream cheese, sugar and milk until smooth. Gently fold in whipped topping.
  • Spread on top of your crust. Again, try and make the surface as smooth and flat as possible.
  • Refrigerate until you are ready to add the next layer.

Pumpkin Layer

  • In a medium-sized bowl, beat milk and pudding powder together until smooth.
  • Add canned pumpkin and spice. Using a large spoon, stir until blended together.
  • Pour out and spread all over the first layer, as flat and as evenly as possible.

Topping

  • Spread your thawed whipped topping over the top of your pie. Make whatever pattern you want with the whipped topping, if you want to make a pattern at all!
  • Refrigerate or freeze until ready to serve.
  • Enjoy every bite!

Notes

  • Store leftover pumpkin cheesecake with Cool Whip tightly covered for up to 3 days in the fridge.
  • Try making this cheesecake recipe with a spring form pan instead of a pie pan to make it easier to remove and slice.
  • Carefully squeeze out extra moisture or blot the pumpkin purée with paper towels if it seems watery.
  • Save some time and purchase a premade Graham cracker crust instead of making it yourself.
