No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake

📌Main Ingredients Used
- Pumpkin Puree | Don’t confuse this with pumpkin pie mix. Pumpkin puree is simply pureed pumpkin in a can. Then pair with the warm pumpkin spices and it brings so much flavor to this cheesecake.
- Cream Cheese | Ensure your cream cheese is room temperature. This will allow you to mix it properly for that velvety smooth texture.
- Cool Whip | This is going to help give you a light and fluffy texture. Along with the sugar, it is perfectly sweet, creamy, and light enough to enjoy.

Can I Use A Different Type of Crust
I think gingersnaps or even Golden Oreos could make a great alternative to a graham cracker crust. This homemade pumpkin dessert is able to be changed up a bit so get creative.
How to Store
If you have leftover pie, you will want to store your no bake pumpkin cheesecake pie in the fridge covered tightly. Due to the dairy in the recipe, it will spoil at room temperature.
Feel free to store in the fridge for up to 5 days.
Does This Cheesecake Freeze
Go right ahead and store any leftover pumpkin cheesecake in the freezer. Cover and store properly for up to three months.
You can pre-slice the cheesecake so when you get a craving you can pull out one slice. Otherwise just place the whole cheesecake in the fridge to thaw out overnight.
