Ingredients

3 TBS melted butter
20 Gingersnap cookies Sweetzles or similar
1 ½ TBS pumpkin pie spice
1 ½ TBS sugar
8 oz cream cheese softened
16 oz sour cream
1 small box vanilla instant pudding 3 oz
½ cup sugar
1 ½ teaspoons vanilla

Instructions

Crush the gingersnaps in your food processor (or just smash them into crumbs in a plastic bag). Add in the butter and pulse until combined. Place in a small bowl and set aside.
Make your sweet pumpkin pie spice blend by combining the pumpkin pie spice and sugar, shaking in a small mason jar or stirring vigorously to blend. Set aside.
In your mixing bowl combine the cream cheese and sour cream and mix on medium speed until blended. Pour in the pudding mix, sugar, vanilla and pumpkin pie spice blend you just made and mix on med-high for 2-3 minutes.
In shooter cups, wine glasses or whatever you may be using, first spoon enough of the gingersnap mixture to cover the bottom. Then spoon or pipe in some cheesecake mixture, Then another layer of gingersnap mixture, then spoon or pipe in second layer of cheesecake mixture, then sprinkle some pumpkin pie spice mix over top.
Keep cold until ready to serve or transport.
You can of course layer it all in a large bowl if you prefer. Enjoy!

Notes

Homemade Pumpkin Spice recipe found here.

You can certainly halve this recipe.

Also since this recipe was originally posted back in 2012, since then Jello has a pumpkin pie spice pudding. You can choose to use that instead of the vanilla and if you do you won't need to add the sweet pumpkin pie spice mixture to this (unless you taste and adjust because you want to).
