Living way down in South Texas means Fall weather kicks in gradually, and for the first part of the season, we’re experiencing sweltering temperatures. This can’t stop us from enjoying Fall goodies, but it does mean we improvise with no-bake Fall desserts like this easy Pumpkin Mousse Pie.
Pumpkin-flavored anything is synonymous with all things Fall, so it’s only natural to take the pumpkin route when it comes to this no-bake pie.
This recipe comes with a decadent cranberry meringue topping accompaniment; this will involve popping the pie into the oven, but remember, the meringue is completely optional.
If you choose to stick to just the pie, by all means, do.
This mousse pie will soon become one of your favorite no-bake thanksgiving treats to take for that potluck!
