Description

This dish is so easy to make and, in comparison to its traditional cousin, can be made as low fat as you desire (using fat free Cool Whip and sugar free pudding mix). The molasses cookies add a spiciness not often found in a traditional pie crust. If you don’t like the flavor of molasses, you could always substitute ginger snaps, but the soft molasses cookies are a delicious addition.

Ingredients

  • 12 ounces, weight Evaporated Milk
  • 5-⅛ ounces, weight Instant Vanilla Pudding Mix
  • 15 ounces, weight Pure Pumpkin Puree
  • ½ teaspoons Cinnamon
  • ¼ teaspoons Nutmeg
  • 10  Soft Molasses Cookies
  • 8 ounces, weight Cool Whip

Preparation

(Cook time is refrigeration time.)

1. In a mixing bowl, combine milk and pudding mix. Whip for 30 minutes.
2. Add the pumpkin and spices. Whip for an additional 1 minute.
3. Cover with plastic wrap, placing directly on the pudding, and refrigerate.
4. Allow to set in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour.
5. When ready to assemble, crumble half a cookie in the bottom of a glass, followed by 2 tablespoons of pumpkin pudding, and 1 tablespoon Cool Whip. Repeat layering., finishing with a garnish of cookie crumbles.
6. Refrigerate until ready to serve.

Note: Although simple, this is a rich dessert because of the molasses flavor. The directions make a parfait large enough for one person with a big sweet tooth. You could make smaller versions in a champagne flute or large shot glass.
