These bars make it possible for everyone to easily enjoy a chunk of cookie dough without the need for scooping everyone a serving. They’re super easy because you prepare them a day or two in advance, keep them in the fridge, slice them up, and set them out on your dessert table! It couldn’t be easier!

Who loves pumpkin dessert??? 🙋🏻‍♀️🙋🏻‍♀️ I LOVE when the Fall season finally comes around and it’s time to feast on pumpkin desserts. This pumpkin lush is the perfect embodiment of Fall - it’s warmly-spiced ginger/cinnamon crust, the tangy cream cheese layer, a luscious pumpkin filling, fluffy whipped topping, and crunchy walnuts make this the ideal autumn dessert. I find that this dessert is a fantastic alternative to traditional pumpkin pie! My family actually prefers it when offered both options - not only is the flavor superior, but the textures are unmatched - it melts in your mouth!

In my opinion, this lush should be replacing pumpkin pie on your Thanksgiving dessert table. If you’re not willing to give up the classic dessert, then make both and see which one gets eaten quicker! I can guarantee that this pumpkin lush will be so greatly enjoyed that you won’t have much left over (if any at all). A good ol’ friendly competition: Classic Pumpkin Pie vs. Pumpkin Lush! Give it a try - you’ll be pleasantly surprised. Everyone will be so impressed not only with the flavors, but with the fancy layering as well. The compliments will be flooding in!
