Time once again for the Secret Recipe Club (get all the details here!)
My October assignment was This Mama Cooks. Anne-Marie has a blog full of healthy recipe tips and tricks for busy moms and families. Well, I am such a pumpkin fanatic that I wasn’t going to let my SRC assignment get by this month without choosing a pumpkin recipe from my assigned blog. As it turns out, two of This Mama Cooks recipes inspired these mini pies. I love the fluffiness of this Pumpkin Mousse and the idea of a pumpkin cheesecake, but on the particular day I was making this recipe I was in a no-bake kind of mood. So I made a no-bake pumpkin cheesecake cream and put in on top of a biscoff crust. Best part about it – I put it in a mini jar…portion control at it’s finest.
SRC: Mini Pumpkin Cream Pies with Biscoff Cookie Crust
Ingredients
- 1 (8.8 oz.) pkg of BISCOFF COOKIES*
- 4 Tablespoons BUTTER, melted
- 1 (8 oz.) block CREAM CHEESE, softened
- 1 cup PUMPKIN PUREE
- 1/2 cup SUGAR
- 1/2 teaspoon VANILLA EXTRACT
- 1/4 teaspoon GROUND CINNAMON
- 1/8 teaspoon GROUND NUTMEG
- Pinch of GROUND CLOVES (optional)
- 1/2 cup WHIPPING CREAM
- 2 Tablespoons SUGAR
- 1/4 teaspoon VANILLA EXTRACT
- Extra Biscoff Cookies and Caramel Sauce for serving
Instructions
- Using a food processor, pulse cookies until they are fine crumbs. Add melted butter and pulse a few times to combine. Divide crumbs among 12 - 4 oz. jars (about 2 Tablespoons per jar) press crumbs down firmly to make crust.
- In a large bowl, whip cream cheese until smooth. Add pumpkin, 1/2 cup of sugar, 1/2 teaspoon vanilla and spices. Whip for a minute on high, scrape sides of bowl and whip again 30 seconds or so until smooth. Divide mixture among jars. (You can refrigerate at this point if it will be awhile before serving.)
- Whip cream, 2 Tablespoons of sugar and 1/4 teaspoon vanilla together until stiff peaks form. Top pumpkin cream with this whipped cream, drizzle with caramel sauce and serve with extra biscoff cookies if desired.
Notes
*I found biscoff cookies in the cookie aisle at Walmart.

I love pumpkin anything, and these look especially delish! Great job!
I’m all about pumpkin this month. Can’t wait to try this fabulous looking recipe
Pumpkin, biscoff, cheesecake, and no bake? Where do I sign up?
Sounds divine. So pinning this.
These look so awesome (and easy!) Can’t wait to make them myself YUM!
What a great presentation for your Mini Pumpkin Cream Pies, we would really enjoy these little treats.
Oh you guys, you’ve done it again. This looks incredible. Imma pin it for later!
What a perfectly genius idea! These look so amazing, and I can only imagine the flavor combo – pumpkin, cream cheese, biscoff – what’s not to love?!! Great choice and great pics!
Love these! They are adorable and include the flavors of the season right now — Biscoff and pumpkin. 🙂
You know how I feel about pumpkin! And with Biscoff?? Yes, please!!
Looks scrumptious! I think I put cinnamon and vanilla extract into everything I bake…they’re such wonderful ingredients!
Your mini pies are just adorable. What a great choice!
Wow – that is such an awesome interpretation of the recipes on your assigned blog. Those mini pies look outstandingly delicious!! Great job!
OMG, Becca! These pie parfaits are adorable and look totally scrumptious!! I LOVE the caramel drizzle. Pumpkin + caramel + Biscoff is a winning combo if I’ve ever seen one.
Obsessed with mini desserts! Now to find biscoff cookies in dc…
Thanks for the inspiration for my first SRC post, loved it!
The combination of biscoff + pumpkin sounds incredible! I’ve never tried those two together. But I love the idea of little inidividual pies! I feel like mini desserts just taste better 🙂
I love the little jars of dessert. It’s so much easier to grab and serve straight from the fridge rather than cutting, serving…Plus, look how cute they are!
What a fantastic idea to pair pumpkin with biscoff!!! And you know how much I love treats in little jars…these are adorable!!!!
It’s pumpkin season! These look fabulous.
These are almost too cute to eat… almost. Brilliant choice.

Can these be frozen?
I’ve never tried freezing them so I can’t say for sure. Let me know if you give it a try – enjoy!
I absolutely adore this idea! I am sucker for anything pumpkin or Biscoff and served in cute little jars. 😉
