Delight your taste buds with the light and creamy decadence of Honey Pumpkin Mousse, a no-bake dessert that perfectly combines the cozy flavors of fall with an elegant, velvety texture. Made with real pumpkin puree, a hint of warm spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger, and naturally sweetened with honey, this mousse offers a delightful balance of earthy richness and airy sweetness. Cream cheese lends a touch of tanginess, while whipped heavy cream ensures a fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth experience. Ready in just 20 minutes of prep time and chilled to perfection, this easy pumpkin mousse is ideal for holiday gatherings or as a sophisticated seasonal treat. Serve it in elegant glasses and garnish with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon for an eye-catching finish.
In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese using an electric mixer until smooth and creamy, about 1-2 minutes.
Add the pumpkin puree, honey, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and salt to the cream cheese. Mix on medium speed until fully combined and smooth, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed.
In a separate bowl, whisk the heavy cream until soft peaks form, using an electric mixer on high speed (this may take about 3-4 minutes).
Gently fold the whipped cream into the pumpkin mixture in three additions, ensuring you retain as much air as possible for a fluffy mousse.
Once the mixture is fully combined and light in texture, spoon the mousse into serving dishes or glasses.
Refrigerate the mousse for at least 2 hours to chill and set properly.
Before serving, garnish with a dollop of whipped cream or a light sprinkle of cinnamon (optional).
