Ingredients
Scale
Crust & Cream Cheese Layer
- 1 premade graham cracker crumb pie crust (larger store-bought size)
- 8 ounces cream cheese, softened
- 1 tablespoon milk
- 1 tablespoon sugar
- 4 ounces Cool Whip (½ of an 8 oz tub)
Pumpkin Filling
- 8 ounces Cool Whip (remaining ½ of an 8 oz tub)
- 1 cup milk
- 2 (3.4 oz) packages instant vanilla pudding mix
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 15 ounces canned pumpkin
Instructions
- Prepare the Cream Cheese Layer: In a large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, 1 tablespoon of milk, and sugar until the mixture is smooth and creamy. Gently fold in half of the Cool Whip (about 4 ounces) until evenly combined. Spread this creamy mixture evenly into the graham cracker crust to form the base layer of your pie.
- Make the Pumpkin Filling: In a separate bowl, whisk together the cup of milk, canned pumpkin, instant vanilla pudding mixes, and pumpkin pie spice until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy, ensuring all dry pudding mix is fully incorporated.
- Assemble the Pie: Carefully spread the pumpkin filling evenly over the cream cheese layer in the pie crust.
- Top with Whipped Topping: Spread the remaining Cool Whip (around 4 ounces) over the pumpkin filling to create a smooth and fluffy topping layer.
- Chill: Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours (or until set) to allow the layers to firm up and the flavors to meld. Once chilled, slice into 8 servings and enjoy!
