🧾 INGREDIENTS (COLOR-FIRST)
🟤 PUMPKIN MASCARPONE CREAM
-
1 cup heavy cream
-
8 oz mascarpone, room temperature
-
¾ cup pumpkin purée (not pie filling)
-
⅓ cup Say-She-Ate-It® Organic Agave
-
1 tsp vanilla extract
-
¾ tsp Cinnfully® Seasonings
🟤 STRUCTURE
-
Gingersnap cookies, broken into large pieces

Strong brewed coffee, cooled
⚪ FINISH

👩🏽🍳 STEP 1: PUMPKIN MASCARPONE CREAM
-
Whip heavy cream to soft peaks; set aside.
-
In a separate bowl, whisk mascarpone, pumpkin purée, Say-She-Ate-It® Agave, vanilla, and Cinnfully® until smooth.
-
Gently fold whipped cream into the pumpkin mixture.
Texture check: silky, spoonable, cohesive.
Not airy mousse. Not dense paste.
👩🏽🍳 STEP 2: PREP THE GINGERSNAPS
-
Dip gingersnap pieces quickly into coffee.
-
Do not soak.
Color check: warm light brown, aromatic.
If they go dark or soft, they stayed too long.
👩🏽🍳 STEP 3: ASSEMBLE (CLASSIC LAYERS)
In a glass dish or individual cups:
-
Gingersnap layer
-
Pumpkin mascarpone cream
-
Repeat once
-
Finish with mascarpone
Smooth the top lightly. No swirling.
👩🏽🍳 STEP 4: SET
-
Cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours, ideally overnight.
This tightens the layers and deepens the brown tone.
🍽️ STEP 5: SERVE & FINAL COLOR READ
-
Dust lightly with cocoa just before serving.
🎨 FINAL COLOR READ
-
Base: deep brown pumpkin-caramel
-
Structure: light-brown gingersnap layers
-
Surface: soft cocoa shadow
-
Cream: visible only at the edges
If it looks tan overall, it needs more chill time.
