In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 1/4 cup of the granulated sugar. Mix until the crumbs are evenly moistened.
Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9x13-inch pan to form the crust. Place the pan in the freezer for 10 minutes to set.
In a large mixing bowl, using a hand or stand mixer, beat the softened cream cheese and the remaining 3/4 cup of granulated sugar until smooth and creamy.
Add the pumpkin puree, powdered sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and vanilla extract to the cream cheese mixture. Beat until all ingredients are well combined and the texture is smooth.
Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping with a spatula until evenly mixed, being careful not to deflate the mixture.
Spread the pumpkin mixture evenly over the chilled graham cracker crust.
Cover the pan with plastic wrap or aluminum foil and place in the freezer for at least 4 hours, or until fully frozen.
Before serving, let the frozen pumpkin squares sit at room temperature for 5–10 minutes to slightly soften for easier cutting.
Cut into squares and serve immediately. Optionally, garnish with additional whipped topping or a sprinkle of ground cinnamon.
