Pumpkin Cheesecake No Bake Parfaits

That’s right, you read that correctly.  This recipe is the best of both worlds for me because I love anything pumpkin and I love cheesecake and you are going to love these No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake Parfaits. 

This is an easy dessert recipe, as most of mine are, because really who has a lot of time to cook and bake these days?  This is also a no bake dessert and will make a great addition to your dessert table this holiday season.

I love using mason jars to serve a no bake dessert in.  I’ve used mason jars this summer to make my No Bake Pudding Desserts.  It’s easy to make the desserts the day before if you’re preparing for company using mason jars like I did for our daughter’s bridal shower.

These desserts are great for every day snacking too!  They’re easy to store in the refrigerator and the kids can just grab an easy treat after school.

For the Pumpkin Cheesecake

• 8 ounces cream cheese; softened

Followed by the whipped topping.  Continue layering until you get to the top of the mason jar.

Chopped pecans on top add just the right amount of crunch to the recipe.

Tips for Serving the Pumpkin Cheesecake Dessert
