Pumpkin Spice Mousse makes a wonderful fall holiday dessert idea. While it looks elegant, this dessert is actually quite easy to make.  The mousse itself just takes 5 ingredients, and with the help of a refrigerated pie crust, you can add an elegant leaf element to the dessert.

Refrigerated pie crusts are also great for making these apple tarts and empanadas too.

    This dessert is a real art ... Firstly, I can’t get past pumpkin desserts, this is my weak point. And I’m lucky, because few of my friends love pumpkin, I always get more :))) I especially like the decoration and that this dessert does not require a lot of ingredients. It looks super appetizing and brings a Christmas mood! I will definitely keep this recipe and prepare this dessert in the nearest future. Thank you for sharing such goodies!

Hi, I'm Raquel! I am a self-proclaimed foodie and have enjoyed cooking and baking since I was little. I loved baking cookies with my mother and grandma as a child, and later making dinners for my parents to foster my passion while in high school. I also had a passion for organizing and keeping things tidy.
