I found this recipe a few years ago but decided to tweak it a bit to reduce the fat and calories. It is a nice change from pumpkin pie.

Time 10m

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 can(s) (15 ounces) solid pack pumpkin
1/2 c packed light brown sugar
1 tsp pumpkin pie spice
4 c light vanilla ice cream or vanilla frozen yogurt, softened
2 Tbsp chopped pecans or walnuts

Steps:

  • 1. In a large bowl combine pumpkin, sugar and pumpkin pie spice. Stir until well blended.
  • 2. Blend in softened ice cream/frozen yogurt until well combined.
  • 3. Pour into 8 x 8 pan and sprinkle with nuts.
  • 4. Freeze 4 hours or until firm. Remove pan from freezer and let stand 10 minutes to soften before serving. Top each piece with whipped topping if desired. Store dessert covered in the freezer.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pumpkin: Look for sugar pumpkins or pie pumpkins, which are smaller and have a sweeter, denser flesh. Avoid using carving pumpkins, which are large and bland.
  • Roast the pumpkin before freezing: Roasting the pumpkin intensifies its flavor and makes it easier to puree. You can roast the pumpkin in the oven or in a slow cooker.
  • Use fresh spices: Freshly ground spices, such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger, will give your desserts a more intense flavor than pre-ground spices.
  • Don't overcook the pumpkin: Overcooked pumpkin can become watery and bland. Cook it just until it is tender, about 15 minutes per cup of pumpkin puree.
  • Chill the pumpkin puree before using: Chilling the pumpkin puree will help it to thicken and make it easier to work with.
  • Be creative: There are many ways to use frozen pumpkin puree in desserts. You can add it to cakes, cookies, muffins, pies, and ice cream.

Conclusion:

Frozen pumpkin puree is a versatile ingredient that can be used to make a variety of delicious desserts. It is a great way to use up leftover pumpkin after Halloween or Thanksgiving, and it can also be used to make desserts year-round. With a little creativity, you can use frozen pumpkin puree to make everything from classic pumpkin pie to more unique desserts like pumpkin cheesecake bars or pumpkin bread pudding. So next time you have some leftover pumpkin, don't throw it away - freeze it and use it to make a delicious dessert!
