This last weekend I was needing an idea for a treat to give to the ladies I visit teach. So, I started looking on my favorite site sugardoodle.net for an idea. As I clicked on one of the sites up popped this idea. It was so quick and easy and even cuter that she put it in a jar. So, I made up a few to give away and the rest for us... it was a hit! Even though I finally realized why mine didn't look lighter than the picture, its because I forgot to add the whipped cream to the mix, I only added it to the top, but it was still so yummy, I thought I would share. Its a great dessert with Thanksgiving coming up.
Crust:
1 1/2 cups finely crushed graham crackers (about 1 1/2 packages of crackers, I crushed them in my food processor)
1/3 cup sugar
6 tablespoons melted butter
Mix together well, then press into small cups or jars with your hands and chill in the fridge. Do not cook crust.
Cream:
1 cup pumpkin (pureed)
2 cups cold milk
2 boxes of instant vanilla pudding (3.4 oz size)
1 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
1 cup frozen whipped topping, thawed (cool whip or make your own)
Extra whipped topping for the top of pies
Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix together on low speed for 1 minute. Spoon filling into cups or jars on top of graham cracker crust. Top with a layer of whipped topping and chill in fridge until set. About a half hour.
