How to Make Pumpkin Pie Parfait

  1. Crush 12 gingersnap cookies into 1 cup of crumbs.

  3. Add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda and stir until the mixture becomes foamy.
  4. Stir in the 1 cup crushed gingersnap cookies.
  5. Pour the mixture onto a sheet of parchment paper sprayed with cooking spray.
  6. Spread the mixture thinly and break up any large clumps. Let cool completely.
  7. In a large bowl, whisk together 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree, 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger, 1/4 teaspoon ground cloves, and 1/2 cup (120ml) milk until completely smooth.
  8. Add 1 (3.4 ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix and whisk until well combined.
  9. Layer the pumpkin mixture, whipped cream (about 2 cups), and gingersnap crumbs in six parfait glasses or small dessert cups, repeating the layers.
  10. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour to allow the parfait to set.
  11. Top each parfait with a whole gingersnap cookie before serving.
