Thanksgiving Pumpkin Slush Cake

• Crust:
• 1 1/4 cups chopped pecans, divided
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/2 cup butter, softened
• 2 tablespoons white sugar
• 1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar
• Cream Cheese Layer:
• 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
• 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar
• 2 (8 ounce) containers whipped topping (such as Cool Whip(R)), divided
• Pumpkin Layer:
• 1 1/2 cups canned pumpkin
• 1 1/2 cups milk
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 2 (3 ounce) packages instant vanilla pudding mix
• 1 3/4 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
• 1 pinch ground cinnamon, or more to taste

1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
2. Stir 1 cup pecans, flour, butter, white sugar, and 1 tablespoon confectioners' sugar together until crumbly. Press pecan mixture into the bottom of a 9x13-inch baking dish.
3. Bake pecan crust in the preheated oven until golden, 20 minutes. Cool completely.
4. Beat cream cheese and 3/4 cup confectioners' sugar in a bowl with an electric mixer until fluffy, about 2 minutes. Fold 1 1/2 cups whipped topping into cream cheese mixture. Spread cream cheese mixture over cooled pecan crust.
5. Beat pumpkin, milk, brown sugar, vanilla pudding mix, and pumpkin pie spice together in a bowl with an electric mixer until mixture thickens, 2 to 3 minutes. Gently fold in 4 ounces whipped topping. Spread pumpkin mixture in a layer over the cream cheese mixture.
6. Spread remaining whipped topping over the pumpkin mixture layer. Sprinkle cinnamon and remaining 1/4 cup pecans over the top. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 3 hours or overnight.
