Ingredients

  • 2 cups finely ground gingersnap cookie crumbs (from about 10 ounces of gingersnaps)
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 (.25-ounce) envelope gelatin (2 ½ teaspoons)
  • 1/2 cup brown sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 3 eggs, separated (or 3 egg yolks and enough egg white substitute for 3 egg whites)
  • 2 tablespoons rum (note original recipe called for 1/2 cup of rum, but I and several others think it's a bit much)

  • 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree (1 3/4 cups)
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream, softly whipped (for topping)
  • Extra crushed gingersnaps, for garnish
