1 ½ cups (180 grams) graham cracker crumbs
¼ cup (55 grams) light brown sugar
6 tablespoons (85 grams) salted butter
½ teaspoon (1.5 grams) ground cinnamon
1 ½ cups (375 ml) heavy cream
¼ cup (30 grams) powdered sugar
1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
16 ounce (450 grams) cream cheese
¾ cup (165 grams) brown sugar
1 cup (244 grams) canned pumpkin puree
2 teaspoon (4 g) pumpkin pie spice
1 teaspoon (5 ml) vanilla extract
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, melted butter, and ground cinnamon. Mix until well combined and resembling wet sand.
- Press the crust mixture into the bottom of a lined 9×9 inch baking pan. Refrigerate while preparing the filling.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and brown sugar until smooth and creamy.
- Add pumpkin puree, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract. Mix until fully incorporated.
- In another bowl, whip heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
- Gently fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin cheesecake mixture until combined.
- Spread the pumpkin cheesecake mixture over the chilled crust, smoothing the top.
- Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or until set. Cut into bars and serve with additional whipped cream if desired.
Notes
Make sure to use room temperature cream cheese for a smooth filling. Refrigerating longer enhances the flavors.
