Steps:
- For the pie filling: Bring some water to a boil in a saucepan, then reduce the heat to a simmer. Find a heatproof mixing bowl that will fit over the top of the pan, but not sink it all the way in. (Do-it-yourself double boiler!)
- Put the egg yolks in the mixing bowl. Add the granulated sugar and whisk until the yolks start to turn pale. Place the mixing bowl on top of the saucepan with the simmering water. Slowly add the bourbon and whisk to combine. Cook over the simmering water, using a rubber spatula to scrape the bowl, until thick, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat, then cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until cool, 20 to 25 minutes.
- Place the mascarpone cheese and pumpkin puree in a bowl and stir until smooth. Combine the whipping cream, brown sugar, vanilla and cinnamon in a separate mixing bowl and whip until not quite stiff. Add the mascarpone and pumpkin mixture to the whipped cream mixture, followed by the chilled egg mixture. Fold gently until mixed well. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 1 hour.
- For the pumpkin pie espresso syrup: Bring 1 1/2 cups water to a boil in a small saucepan. Remove the pan from the heat and slowly add the instant espresso, then stir until dissolved. Add the brown sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg and stir until the sugar has dissolved completely, 1 to 2 minutes. Set aside.
- To assemble: Arrange the ladyfingers in a single layer in a 9-by-13-inch pan, breaking as necessary to fit. Spoon 2 teaspoons of the espresso syrup over each ladyfinger. Plop a third of the chilled mascarpone/pumpkin mixture on top and spread it into a thin layer. Grate over a thin layer of chocolate and sprinkle over 1/2 cup of the crushed gingersnaps.
- Repeat the process 2 more times, finishing with the crushed gingersnaps. Cover and refrigerate for 3 hours or up to overnight before serving. This will allow for more moisture to soften the cookies and for the whole mixture to meld together. The tiramisu is best consumed within 24 to 36 hours after assembling, as the components will begin to break down and become soupy.

Tips:
- Choose the right pumpkin: For the best flavor, use a sugar pumpkin or a pie pumpkin. These pumpkins are small and have a sweet, dense flesh. Avoid using a carving pumpkin, as they are stringy and not as flavorful.
- Roast the pumpkin: Roasting the pumpkin intensifies its flavor and makes it easier to puree. To roast the pumpkin, cut it in half, scoop out the seeds, and place it cut-side down on a baking sheet. Drizzle the pumpkin with olive oil and season it with salt and pepper. Roast the pumpkin at 400 degrees Fahrenheit for 45 minutes, or until it is tender.
- Make the pumpkin puree: Once the pumpkin is roasted, let it cool slightly. Then, scoop the flesh out of the skin and puree it in a food processor or blender until it is smooth.
- Use high-quality ingredients: The quality of your ingredients will greatly affect the taste of your tiramisu. Use fresh, organic ingredients whenever possible.
- Don't overmix the mascarpone cheese: Overmixing the mascarpone cheese will make it grainy. Gently fold the mascarpone cheese into the pumpkin puree until it is just combined.
- Let the tiramisu chill for at least 4 hours before serving: This will give the flavors time to meld and the tiramisu time to set.
Conclusion:
Spiced pumpkin tiramisu is a delicious and unique dessert that is perfect for fall. It is easy to make and can be enjoyed by people of all ages. Whether you are serving it at a holiday party or enjoying it as a special treat, this tiramisu is sure to be a hit.
