Step 4: Fold in the Whipped Cream

  • Gently fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin mixture using a spatula. Mix slowly to keep the mousse light and fluffy.

Step 5: Chill

Notes

For a beautiful presentation, serve the mousse in small glass cups.
Add crushed graham crackers to the bottom of each glass for a pumpkin pie-inspired dessert.
You can also top the mousse with whipped cream, cinnamon, or chopped pecans.
If using homemade pumpkin puree, make sure it is thick and not watery.
