With A Buttery Pecan Crust, A Whipped Cream Cheese Layer, Light And Fluffy Pumpkin Spice Pudding, And More Whipped Cream Topped Off With Chopped Pecans, This Pumpkin Delight Dessert Is Absolutely Irresistible! I don’t even think I can pick a favorite because they are both incredible and I love them both. However, if you’re a pumpkin fan you will love this version. But why do people go nuts over these recipes? It’s simple. It’s not the name as some may think, it’s because these desserts really are that great.
Instead of pumpkin pie this fall (or Thanksgiving!), try this easy pumpkin delight dessert recipe instead! A homemade pecan and graham cracker mix forms a delicious crust that is topped with three layers of light and fluffy filling — including cream cheese, pumpkin, pudding and Cool Whip.
