Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).

Step 2

In a medium bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar until the mixture resembles wet sand.

Step 3

Press the crust mixture firmly into a 9-inch pie pan, covering the bottom and sides evenly. Bake for 8-10 minutes, then let it cool completely.

Step 4

In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar together until smooth and creamy.

Step 5

Add the vanilla extract and heavy whipping cream to the cream cheese mixture. Beat until fluffy and smooth. Set aside.

Step 6

In another bowl, combine the pumpkin puree, 0.5 cups of granulated sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and cornstarch. Mix until fully combined.

Step 7

To assemble the pie, first spread half of the cream cheese mixture evenly over the cooled graham cracker crust.

Step 8

Gently spoon the pumpkin mixture on top of the cream cheese layer, spreading it evenly.

Step 9

Finish with the remaining cream cheese mixture, spreading it carefully over the pumpkin layer.

Step 10

Refrigerate the pie for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, to set.

Step 11

Before serving, optionally top the pie with whipped cream and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon for garnish.
