Instructions
Creating these Pumpkin Cheesecake Jars is simple and fun. Follow these easy steps for a perfect dessert:
In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until well combined.
Layer the Crust: Spoon about 2 tablespoons of the graham cracker mixture into the bottom of each jar. Press down gently to form a crust layer.
Make the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the pumpkin puree, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. Mix until creamy and well combined.
Whip the Cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin mixture until fully incorporated. Be careful not to deflate the whipped cream.
Layer the Filling: Spoon the pumpkin cheesecake filling into each jar on top of the graham cracker crust. Fill the jars about three-quarters full.
Chill: Cover the jars with lids or plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours, or overnight for the best flavor and texture.
Serve: Before serving, top each jar with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of cinnamon if desired.
