Ingredients

Crust

1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
1 tablespoon sugar
6 tablespoons butter melted

Cheesecake Layer

8 ounces cream cheese softened
1 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Pumpkin Layer

1 cup pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
1 box Instant vanilla pudding 4 oz
1/2 cup cool whip
1 1/4 cup half and half

Topping

2 cups cool whip
1/2 cup chopped pecans
Caramel sauce for drizzle

Instructions

In a bowl, you will add your graham cracker crumbs, butter, and granulated sugar. Mix until crumbly like sand. Then press the crust into an aluminum foil-lined 8x8 pan. Press down with a cup or something firm to pack it in.
Now in a new bowl add your cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Whip it up until nice and creamy. Then spread on top of the graham cracker crust.
Next in a new bowl add your half and half and vanilla pudding. Whip until it begins to thicken. Then add in your pumpkin spice, pumpkin puree, and mix. Then once well-mixed fold in 1/2 cup cool whip. Then top the cheesecake layer.
Now add on your 2 cups cool whip. Cover and then place in the fridge covered for at least 4 hours.
Then before you serve up this pumpkin lush, top with chopped nuts and drizzle on the caramel sauce.
