No-bake pumpkin layers with cream cheese, vanilla crust, and whipped topping. A rich, creamy autumn delight chilled to perfection.

# Ingredients:

→ Crust

01 - 240 g vanilla wafer crumbs
02 - 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
03 - 85 g salted butter, melted

→ Cream Cheese Layer

04 - 450 g cream cheese, softened
05 - 100 g dark brown sugar, firmly packed
06 - 240 ml sour cream
07 - 225 g Cool Whip, thawed and divided

→ Pumpkin Layer

08 - 450 g canned pumpkin puree
09 - 240 ml whole milk
10 - 96 g instant French vanilla pudding mix

→ Garnish

11 - White chocolate curls
12 - Pumpkin pie spice (optional)
13 - Fall sprinkles (optional)

# Steps:

01 - Combine vanilla wafer crumbs and pumpkin pie spice in a bowl. Add melted salted butter and mix until fully coated. Press mixture evenly into a greased 23x33 cm baking dish. Refrigerate while preparing remaining layers.
02 - Beat softened cream cheese and dark brown sugar until light and fluffy, approximately 5 minutes. Blend in sour cream until smooth. Fold in half of the Cool Whip gently. Spread evenly over chilled crust. Return to refrigerator.
03 - Whisk canned pumpkin puree, whole milk, and instant vanilla pudding mix until smooth and creamy. Pour mixture gently over cream cheese layer and level with an offset spatula.
04 - Spoon remaining Cool Whip in dollops over pumpkin layer. Smooth evenly with a clean spatula. Cover and refrigerate for at least 5 hours or overnight to allow set.
05 - Decorate with white chocolate curls, and optionally dust with pumpkin pie spice and fall sprinkles. Slice and serve chilled for best taste and texture.

# Notes:

01 - Ensure cream cheese is fully softened for a smooth consistency. Use an offset spatula for even layers. Prepare the dessert ahead and refrigerate overnight for optimal flavor melding.
