Pumpkin Fluff Pie (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 1 cup of crushed graham crackers, that's about 9 sheets or a sleeve.
02 - 1 tablespoon granulated sugar.
03 - 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
04 - 1/2 cup melted butter.
05 - 15 oz of canned pumpkin puree.
06 - One small box (3 oz) of vanilla pudding mix.
07 - Pumpkin pie spice, about 1 to 1 1/2 teaspoons.
08 - 12 oz container of previously thawed frozen whipped topping.
09 - Optional: mix your own pumpkin spice blend with 3/4 tsp cinnamon, 1/2 tsp ground ginger, 1/2 tsp nutmeg, 1/4 tsp cloves, and 1/4 tsp allspice.

# Instructions:

01 - Crush the graham crackers with sugar and cinnamon, then combine with butter. Firmly press into a 9-inch dish. Let it chill for 10-15 mins.
02 - In a bowl, blend together the pumpkin, pudding mix, and spices. Once smooth, gently fold in the whipped topping.
03 - Spread the filling evenly into the crust, wrap it with plastic, and let it rest in the fridge for a minimum of 4 hours.
04 - You can sprinkle extra spices if you'd like before serving. Keep it chilled.

# Notes:

01 - Stays fresh for up to 3 or 4 days in the fridge. Want to save time? Pre-ground graham crumbs (1 cup) work. Spice blend can be made in advance. Cool Whip is better than fresh whipped cream for keeping it sturdy.
