1/4 cup pure pumpkin puree (blotted dry)
3 tbsp maple syrup
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
Optional Garnish:
Cinnamon sprinkle
Crushed graham cracker crumbs
Instructions
In a high-powered blender, blend cottage cheese and softened cream cheese for 1–2 minutes until silky smooth.
Add pumpkin puree, maple syrup, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract. Blend again until fully incorporated.
Divide mousse into two small serving dishes.
Chill for at least 30 minutes to set and enhance flavor.
Top with cinnamon or graham cracker crumbs before serving.
Notes
For best results, blot pumpkin puree with a paper towel to remove excess moisture.
Sweetness can be adjusted with more or less maple syrup (or use sugar-free syrup for lower carbs).
Store covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
Whipped cream makes a delicious garnish if serving for a special occasion.
