Ingredients

  • 1 cup (240 ml) heavy whipping cream cold Note 1

  • 1/3 cup (80 ml) sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice

Equipment

Instructions

  • In a mixing bowl with a whisk attachment, whip the heavy whipping cream until hard peaks form.
    1 cup heavy whipping cream
  • Add pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk and pumpkin pie spice and beat until nice and smooth.
    2/3 cup pure pumpkin puree, 1/3 cup sweetened condensed milk, 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • Transfer the mousse into a pastry bag with star tip (I like using Wilton 1M or Wilton 8M piping tips).
  • Fill the mini chocolate cups, or tart shells, or mini dessert glasses with the pumpkin mousse and serve. (Alternatively, you can add this pumpkin mousse to your coffee. It’s amazing!!)

Notes

Note 1: Be sure to use heavy whipping cream with at least 36% of milkfat content. Half-and-half won't work for this recipe.
Note 2: Make sure you're using pure pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling. They're not the same thing.
Make-Ahead Tip: You can make this pumpkin mousse 12-24 hours in advance. Follow the steps 1-2, and then refrigerate until ready to serve. Before serving, whisk the mixture on medium-high speed for 1-2 minutes, or until it’s nice and fluffy, and continue with step 3.
Storing Tips: 
- Store leftover pumpkin mousse in a glass, airtight container in the refrigerator.
- It’s best to consume no-chill pumpkin mousse recipes within 24 hours.
- Unfortunately, this pumpkin mousse recipe does not freeze well.
