Step-by-Step Instructions
- In a medium bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs and melted butter, stirring until evenly moistened. Press firmly into the bottom of a 9x9 inch dish to create the crust.
- In a large bowl, beat together the powdered sugar and cream cheese using an electric mixer until smooth, about 2-3 minutes.
- Add the pumpkin puree, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice. Mix on low speed until fully incorporated and smooth, about 1-2 minutes.
- Fold in the thawed whipped topping gently until well combined and fluffy.
- Spread the pumpkin filling evenly over the crust, smoothing the top for a neat appearance.
- Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours to set.
- Before serving, top with additional whipped topping, sprinkle with ground cinnamon and crushed graham crackers.

Notes
For best results, let the graham cracker crumbs be finely crushed and the cream cheese softened to ensure a smooth filling. Garnishes add visual appeal.
