Ingredients
1.5 cups graham crackers, crushed fine
6 tbsp butter, melted
16 oz cream cheese, softened to room temperature
1 cup pumpkin puree (100% pure)
1 cup powdered sugar, sifted
2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1 tsp vanilla extract
8 oz whipped topping, thawed
Instructions
Combine the crushed graham crackers and melted butter in a medium mixing bowl.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a parchment-lined 8×8 inch square baking pan.
Freeze the crust for 10 minutes to set while you prepare the filling.
Beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar in a large bowl until the texture is completely smooth.
Add the pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice to the mixture and beat until well combined.
Fold the thawed whipped topping into the pumpkin mixture using a rubber spatula until fully incorporated.
Spread the pumpkin mixture evenly over the chilled graham cracker crust using an offset spatula.
Refrigerate the bars for at least 4 hours until the filling is firm before slicing into squares.
Notes
Ensure your cream cheese is at room temperature to avoid lumps in your filling. Store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Use 100% pure canned pumpkin, not pumpkin pie filling which contains added sugars and spices.
