How to Create Ghostly Pumpkin Spice Mousse Cups. When making Pumpkin Spice Mousse Cups.
To create the pumpkin spice mousse, start by whipping cream cheese, pumpkin puree, pumpkin spice, vanilla extract and your desired sweetener until smooth and whipped cream can be folded in. Prepared whipped cream may then be folded into the texture for extra lightening effects.
Tips for Producing an Ultra Smooth Mousse: When whipping pumpkin puree with cream cheese, ensure it has been softened sufficiently so as to produce a silky smooth mousse. If necessary, place the bowl in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to soften further, before whipping until all white specs have dissipated and continue whipping until everything becomes creamy smooth again.
Pumpkin mousse can also make for an incredible dessert sans ghosts!
