Mix together the vanilla pudding mix and the milk with a wire whisk. Fold in the pumpkin filling and spices in a small bowl.
Make the fresh whipped cream.
Pour the cold heavy whipping cream into a chilled mixing bowl.
Using an electric mixer on medium speed, beat the cream until it begins to thicken.
Once the cream starts to thicken, add the sugar and vanilla extract. Continue to beat the mixture.
Continue beating the cream on medium-high speed until soft peaks form. Soft peaks are when the cream holds a peak, but the tip falls over when the beaters are lifted.
Fold in the softened cream cheese to the whipped cream.
To make the cookie crumbs, either pulse the cookies until they are finely chopped into crumbs using a food processor or use a rolling pin to crush the cookies in a resealable plastic bag.
Add gingersnap cookie crumbs in each mason jar as your bottom layer.
Add the pumpkin layer. Continue until each jar is filled to the top.
Refrigerate the jars for at least 2 hours to allow the flavors to meld and the filling to set.
Before serving, top each jar with a dollop of whipped cream and a sprinkle of ground cinnamon.
Variations to Try:
- Swap out the cookies for graham cracker crumbs or use a combination of both graham crackers and gingersnaps.
- Make one large pumpkin cream pie using a 9-inch pie tin.
- use an 8-ounce tub cool whip in place of the whipped cream.
