No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake is a creamy, spiced dessert with all the flavors of pumpkin pie and cheesecake—without turning on the oven. With a graham cracker crust and a silky pumpkin-cream cheese filling, it’s perfect for fall gatherings and Thanksgiving.

Ingredients

  1. 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  2. ¼ cup granulated sugar
  3. ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  4. 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  5. 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  6. 1 cup powdered sugar
  7. 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  8. 1 tsp vanilla extract
  9. 8 oz whipped topping (such as Cool Whip), thawed

Instructions

Mix graham cracker crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter until combined. Press firmly into a 9-inch springform pan or pie dish. Chill while preparing the filling.

  1. Beat softened cream cheese until smooth and fluffy.
  2. Add pumpkin puree, powdered sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla. Mix until fully combined.
  3. Fold in whipped topping gently until mixture is light and airy.
  4. Spoon filling over chilled crust and smooth the top.
  5. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, until set.
  6. Before serving, garnish with extra whipped topping and a sprinkle of pumpkin pie spice.

Notes

  1. For extra flavor, use a gingersnap crust instead of graham crackers.
  2. Best made a day in advance to allow flavors to meld and texture to set.
  3. Top with caramel drizzle, pecans, or candied walnuts for added texture.
  4. Can be frozen (without topping) for up to 2 months; thaw in the refrigerator before serving.
