<br/>

Ingredients

• 8 ounces white chocolate
• 1 cup pumpkin puree
• 2 cups whipping cream
• 3 tablespoons chocolate vodka
• 10-12 gingersnap cookies, crushed

Instructions:

1. Break the chocolate into small pieces and place in a microwave-safe bowl. Add ¼ cup water. Microwave for 1 minute. Stir. Continue to microwave in 30-second intervals until completely melted.

2. Place the bowl in an ice bath. Using an electric mixer, beat the chocolate for 5-8 minutes until it begins to thicken.

3. Pour 1 cup whipping cream into a separate bowl. Beat with an electric mixer for 2-3 minutes, or until soft peaks form. Add 1 cup pumpkin puree. Whisk to combine. Whisk the pumpkin puree into the chocolate mixture and set aside.

4. Beat the remaining 1 cup whipped cream in a separate bowl. Add 3 tablespoons chocolate vodka. Feel free to leave out the vodka if you prefer your whipped cream booze-free. Continue to mix until soft peaks form.

5. To assemble, spoon the pumpkin mousse into a dish. Top with whipped cream. Sprinkle gingersnap cookies on top. Enjoy!
