Notes
Regular graham crackers can replace cinnamon graham crackers. Add a light sprinkle of cinnamon between the layers if you want to maintain the warm spice flavor.
For halal-friendly preparation, use alcohol-free vanilla extract or vanilla flavoring and verify that the pudding mix, caramel sauce, whipped topping, graham crackers, and toffee bits contain suitable ingredients.
For additional fall spice, add a small amount of ground nutmeg, ginger, or pumpkin pie spice to the pumpkin filling.
Chopped pecans can replace the toffee bits for a nutty variation.
Serve each slice with whipped cream, caramel drizzle, cinnamon, or a small sprinkle of crushed graham crackers.
