Pumpkin Pie in a Cup Recipe

Ingredients

  • 2 cups Biscoff cookie crumbs (from about 30 cookies)
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup granulated white sugar
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree (not pumpkin pie mix)
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 6 ounces frozen whipped topping, thawed (plus more for topping)

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Cookie Crumb Base
    In a small mixing bowl, combine the Biscoff cookie crumbs with melted butter. Stir until the mixture is well-combined and has a sandy texture. Set aside.
  2. Make the Pumpkin Cheesecake Layer
    In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
    Add the pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice, mixing until fully blended and creamy.
    Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping to give the mixture a light, airy texture.
  3. Assemble the Pumpkin Pie Cups
    For a neater assembly, you can transfer the pumpkin mixture into a piping bag (optional).
    In each serving cup, layer a spoonful of cookie crumbs, followed by a layer of pumpkin cheesecake. Repeat with another layer of crumbs and cheesecake until the cup is filled to your liking.
  4. Chill and Serve
    Place the assembled cups in the refrigerator and chill for at least 30 minutes to set.
    Before serving, add a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of extra cookie crumbs for garnish, if desired.

Recipe Tips and Variations

  • Substitute Cookies: If you don’t have Biscoff cookies, graham crackers or gingersnap cookies make excellent substitutes, adding a unique twist to the dessert.
  • Make Ahead: These cups can be prepared a day in advance. Just wait to add the whipped cream topping until right before serving.
  • Customize Your Cups: Use mini mason jars or clear dessert cups to highlight the beautiful layers for an even more impressive presentation.
