PUMPKIN MOUSSE

Steps:

• Fill a medium pot with a few inches of water and bring to a simmer.
• In a small pot, add ¼ cup of cold water, sprinkle gelatin over the top and let soften for a minute or two. Place on stove and stir over low heat to liquify, being careful not to boil. When gelatin is dissolved, remove from heat and let cool.
• In a medium stainless steel mixing bowl, whisk together the egg yolks and ½ cup sugar.
• Add the pumpkin, ginger, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt and milk and beat to blend. Set the bowl over the pot of simmering water on the stove and beat constantly with the whisk (this could be done with a portable electric mixer on a low setting, but it tends to splatter) until the mixture thickens and becomes custardlike, about 5 minutes.
• Pour and scrape the gelatin into the pumpkin mixture. Pour and scrape the mixture into a large mixing bowl and let pumpkin mixture cool for about 10-15 minutes.
• Beat the egg whites until they hold soft peaks and slowly add the remaining sugar, beating until the whites are firm and the sugar has been fully incorporated. Beat half of the whites into the pumpkin mousse. Add the remaining whites, folding them in gently.
• Beat the cream until it is stiff and fold it into the mousse. Divide prepared mousse among parfait or wine glasses. Chill until set, at least 2 hours or up to a day.

• Add flavorings: Add the vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon and salt to the bowl. Beat on medium-high until creamy and smooth; making sure no lumps of cream cheese remain - if so, continue beating!
• Fold in whipped cream: Add 2 cups of the whipped topping to the bowl. Using a rubber spatula, gently fold the whipped topping into the pumpkin mixture until well combined. Make sure you fold gently so you don't deflate the whipped topping! Gently fold until the topping in completely combined and no streaks of cream remain.
• Serve or Store: Either transfer the mousse to a piping bag or gently scoop the mousse into serving cups, glasses or a trifle dish. Top with remaining whipped topping and whatever toppings you love! Serve immediately and enjoy! Storage: Alternately, you can cover the mixing bowl tightly with plastic wrap and store in the refrigerator for several days.
