Name: Leftover Thanksgiving Pumpkin Pie Parfait Recipe
Prep time: 15 min
Cook time: 30 min
Total time: 45 min
Yield: 4 servings
Ingredients: 1 pumpkin pie, with the custard scooped out and separated from the crust; 1 large ginger cookie; 1 slice of pound cake; 1 tablespoon of Amaretto; 1 1/2 cups of soft vanilla ice cream; 2 1/2 cups of whipping cream; 1/4 teaspoon of cinnamon; 3/4 cup of sugar; 1/2 cup of water; 1/2 cup of cranberry sauce

Servings: persons

1
The trifle has four components: a crust-cookie-cake crumb bottom, a pumpkin-pie-ice-cream custard, a cinnamon whipped cream, and a cranberry sauce syrup--which sounds like a lot of steps, but each honestly takes 2 minutes. Begin by making the crumb, by pulsing the pie crust, cookie, pound cake, and amaretto lightly in the food processor until you have a crumb mixture. Be careful to stop before the mixture resembles a dough. Set aside.
2
For the custard, combine the pumpkin pie custard filling with the softened ice cream (a vanilla custard) with a hand mixer or a whisk. Set aside.
3
For the whipped cream, whip the cream and the cinnamon together with a hand mixer until the cream reaches a soft peak.
4
For the cranberry syrup, boil together the water, sugar, and cranberry sauce for 10 minutes, until it has reduced and become syrupy.

Tips for the best results

Read through all the steps once before you start and measure out your ingredients first — it makes everything go more smoothly.
Preheat the oven fully and bake on the middle rack for the most even results.
Check for doneness a few minutes early — a toothpick in the center should come out with just a few moist crumbs.
Let it cool before slicing so it sets properly and holds its shape.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge and enjoy within a few days.

Variations & substitutions

Brown sugar instead of white sugar adds a deeper, more caramel-like flavor.
Coconut cream is a reliable plant-based alternative to dairy cream.
