Equipment

  • 1 muffin tin
  • 24 muffin liners
  • 1 Mixing bowl
  • 1 Electric mixer
  • 1 Rubber spatula
  • 1 measuring cup set
  • 1 measuring spoon set

Ingredients
  

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter melted
  • 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
  • 8 ounces cream cheese softened
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 2 large eggs

Instructions
 

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a muffin tin with liners.
  • Combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 2 tablespoons of sugar in a mixing bowl.
  • Press about 1 tablespoon of the crumb mixture into the bottom of each muffin liner.
  • In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth.
  • Add the pumpkin puree, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, brown sugar, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger to the cream cheese and mix until well combined.
  • Beat in the eggs one at a time, mixing just until incorporated.
  • Spoon the pumpkin mixture over the crusts in the muffin liners, filling each about three-quarters full.
  • Bake in the preheated oven for 25 minutes or until the centers are set.
  • Remove from the oven and let cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely.
  • Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.

Notes

For best results, ensure that the cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing to avoid lumps in the filling. You can also top these bites with a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon before serving for an extra festive touch.
