Easy No Bake Gingerbread Cream Pie
A delightful and easy-to-make no-bake gingerbread cream pie, perfect for holiday gatherings or a quick festive treat!
Equipment
- Large mixing bowl
- Electric Mixer
Ingredients
Pie Crust
- 1 pre-made graham cracker crust 6-ounce
Gingerbread Cream Filling
- 1 package cream cheese 8-ounce, softened to room temperature
- ¾ cup powdered sugar
- ¼ cup unsulphured molasses like Grandma’s brand
- 1 ½ teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ⅛ teaspoon ground cloves
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 containers whipped topping 8-ounce, such as Cool Whip, divided
Garnish
- 2-4 tablespoons crushed gingersnaps or Biscoff cookies for garnish
Instructions
- Whip the Creamy Base: In a large mixing bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until the mixture is super smooth and creamy.
- Infuse with Spice: Add the molasses, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, and vanilla extract. Continue to mix on medium speed until all the warm spices are wonderfully combined and the mixture is fragrant. Don't forget to scrape down the sides of the bowl!
- Fold in the Fluff (Part 1): Gently scoop out about one cup of whipped topping from one of your containers and add it to the spiced cream cheese mixture. Beat this in on medium speed until everything is smoothly incorporated.
- Lighten It Up: Now, carefully fold in the rest of that first container of whipped topping. Mix on a low to medium speed just until it's all combined and you don't see any streaks of whipped topping left. The goal is a light and airy consistency!
- Chill to Perfection: Pour your delightful gingerbread cream mixture into the prepared graham cracker crust. Cover it well and pop it into the refrigerator. Let it chill for at least 6 hours, or even better, overnight, to allow it to firm up beautifully.
- Garnish & Serve: Right before you're ready to enjoy, spread the remaining 8-ounce container of whipped topping evenly over the chilled pie. Sprinkle generously with your crushed gingersnaps or Biscoff cookies for that extra crunch and festive look. Slice and savor this easy, no-bake treat!
