Pumpkin tiramisu is a delicious and easy no bake dessert recipe perfect for any holiday meal or celebration. With layers of pumpkin mousse and coffee soaked ladyfinger cookies this pumpkin tiramisu is a great make ahead dessert that's impressive and serves a crowd.
In a large bowl whisk together the pumpkin, brown sugar, granulated sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and cloves (alternatively you can replace these spices with 1 tsp of pumpkin pie spice) and salt. Add in the softened mascarpone cheese and heavy cream . Using a hand mixer beat everything together until the mixture forms soft peaks.
Add the cooled coffee, sugar and bourbon ( if using) to a medium bowl and stif until the sugar has disolved.
Briefly dip each ladyfinger into the coffee mixture and arrange in a single layer into a 9×9 dish. Spread half of the pumpkin cream onto the ladyfingers. Repeat with another layer of ladyfingers and the remaining pumpkin cream.
Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.Dust with cocoa powder or shaved chocolate and serve as desired.
Optional whipped cream topping - In a large bowl beat together heavy whipping cream and powdered sugar into stiff peaks. You can spread whipped cream in an even layer over the tiramisu or use a large round piping tip to pipe dollops of whipped cream on top of the tiramisu as I did.
Notes
Tip 1 - you can replace the cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger and cloves with 1 tsp of pumpkin pie spice.Tip 2 - Make sure the mascarpone cheese has come to room temperature (about 20 minutes) so it's easier to mix.
