- 1 cup heavy cream
- 1 (8 ounce) package reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
- 34 cup sugar
- 1 (15 ounce) can solid-pack pumpkin
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 3 medium bananas, cut into 1/4-inch thick slices
- long gummy worms, clean plastic skeletons, spiders, for garnish
- Process the cookies in a food processor bowl fitted with a steel blade to make fine crumbs; set aside.
- Beat the cream in a mixing bowl to form firm peaks; set aside.
- Beat the cream cheese and sugar in a separate bowl until creamy.
- Add the pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice; mix well.
- Fold in the whipped cream and bananas until blended to finish the mousse.
- Spoon 3/4 cup pumpkin mousse into each of 8 stemmed dessert glasses or large custard cups; spread top evenly.
- Sprinkle 2 tablespoons cookie crumbs over the top.
- Cover and refrigerate until serving time.
- To garnish, arrange gummy worms and skeletons on "dirt" layer, arranging gummy worms to resemble worms crawling out of the glass.
- Tip: If a food processor is not available, place the cookies in a resealable plastic bag.
