Spiced pumpkin mousse with gelatin in a cozy pie/tart - perfect for fall & winter.
Ingredients:
  • 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup light cream
  • 0.25 cup milk
  • 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 0.25 teaspoon ground cloves
  • 0.25 teaspoon salt
  • 0.25 cup white sugar
  • 0.25 cup cold water
  • 4 egg yolks
  • 0.5 cup white sugar
  • 3 tablespoons Scotch whiskey
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1 (9 inch) baked pastry shell
Instructions:
  • In a blender, combine pumpkin, light cream, milk, ginger, nutmeg, cinnamon, cloves, salt, and 1/4 cup sugar. Blend until smooth.
  • In a small bowl, pour in the cold water and gently sprinkle the gelatin on top to soften.
  • In a large saucepan, whisk together egg yolks and the remaining 1/2 cup of sugar until thick and pale using a hand mixer, about 5 minutes. Add the blended pumpkin puree and gently heat over low heat, stirring until hot with small bubbles forming. Avoid boiling. Transfer the pumpkin mixture to a large bowl and mix in vanilla, whiskey, and gelatin. Chill in the refrigerator until slightly set, approximately 20 minutes.
  • Whip the heavy cream using a hand mixer in a large bowl. Gently fold 1/3 of the whipped cream into the cooled pumpkin mixture using a rubber spatula or wire whisk. Gradually incorporate the remaining cream by gently folding until fully mixed.
  • Transfer the mixture into the pastry shell and refrigerate for 2 to 3 hours until it firms up. Top with extra whipped cream for an added touch, if preferred.
