I know, we are in pumpkin overdrive! There are pumpkin recipes everywhere! When I check my Pinterest feed, every other pin is Pumpkin something. AND I LOVE IT!!! I adore everything pumpkin, except, believe it or not, pumpkin pie! Never been a fan.
Yum

My husband and I were recently at a Large Farmers market where they have lots of unique goodies. I was overjoyed to find the Pumpkin Spice Pizzelles (Italian Waffle Cookies). These things are amazing and only 23 calories each.
After asking hubs, "can we get them?", I was quickly inspired to make a healthy version of pumpkin mousse to top them with and of course add a little cool whip and candied pecans on top!! The result, yummy and light, just the right amount of sweetness and crunch pumpkin goodness!!! So EASY too!! Enjoy pumpkin time friends and fans!!!
INGREDIENTS
8 Pizzelle Cookies
4 containers of Greek Pumpkin Yogurt (this Oikos Pumpkin Pie is the BEST I've had)
1 package Cheesecake pudding Mix (I used sugar free)
1 8 oz tub cool whip
1 teasppon vanilla
Pumpkin Pie spice
Honey Roasted Pecan Pieces (I make homemade candied pecans at the Holidays and will share that recipe later on)
DIRECTIONS
In a medium bowl, mix yogurt, vanilla and cheesecake pudding mix. Fold in cool whip. Place a large spoonful on each pizzelle, then put a dollop of cool whip on top and if desired, sprinkle with pumpkin pie spice and pecans. Note, make sure to assemble these Right before serving as the pizzelle with get soft. Enjoy!! These are super yummy!!

If you are not a pumpkin fan, I bet this would work great with other Greek yogurt flavors as well!!

I love how these are individual sizes. I'm not a really big pumpkin fan {gasp, I know} but David loves it. I need to do a better job of making some for him!
ReplyDeleteCompletely understand. My best friend is not either but she liked these. It's light on pumpkin flavor. I want to try them with lemon or vanilla too. Hope you have a great day my dear!!! ;-)
DeleteMy parents have a pizzelle maker and every Christmas we make lots of them! I have never tried pumpkin ones, but they would be delicious I'm sure!
ReplyDeleteHow cool! I remember seeing one of those in Williams and Sonoma, I think I need a pizzelle maker in my life, Ha ha ha. I hope you have a terrific day!

Thank you my love!! They're yummy, light and tasty!!! :-)
DeleteOMG! I need these! They dont seem as heavy or decadent as some of the other desserts that come to mind when you think of pumpkin either!
ReplyDeleteExactly. I was trying to come up with something light and these were perfect. ;-)
DeleteIt seems like every time I read your recipe posts, it's in the morning before I've had breakfast, and it makes me extra hungry! lol. I can't believe you don't like pumpkin pie! It's the only type of pie I do like.

You're so funny!! Isn't it funny how I love everything else pumpkin but not pumpkin pie?? I just saw a recipe for pumpkin brownie sheet cake with caramel frosting I must try!! Now I'm hungry too!!
DeleteThese look really yummy even though I'm not really a pumpkin fan. I want one.
ReplyDeleteAhhhhhhh Pizzelles!!!!!!!! YES!!!! I grew up eating homemade pizzelles from my grandmother. Her and my aunt (who is from Italy) used to make them all the time and the recipe got passed down to my mom. Gosh I love pizzelles and everyone always looks weird at me when I have them. (My mom always makes them at Christmas for us.)
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Pizzelles! And everyone else's excitement I'm seeing that you used them lol. What a fabulous dessert that looks like the perfect pumpkin-cheesecake combo. Yes, please!
ReplyDeleteYou're so creative! Cheesecake anything catches my eye and I love that you can use healthier options!
ReplyDeleteI saw this picture and thought it looked sooo good. I was shocked one of the ingredients is that yogurt! We just bought some last week! I ate the last one today, but dang that yogurt is good! We will be buying more!
ReplyDeleteThis looks and sounds amazing - I've never seen pumpkin spiced pizzelles!

ReplyDeleteLOL. I love your ending image. It's so true that this time of year brings "everything pumpkin" and as yummy as it all is...it does get to be a bit overwhelming. These look so yummy though. I am quite certain that I would not be able to find those little cookies anywhere in my neighborhood...hell I can't even get a pumpkin spiced latte in my neighborhood. That's what I get for moving to such a small town. Thank you for always sharing such great recipes with #foodpornthursdays.
ReplyDeleteI've never seen those pumpkin spice pizzelles, but I'm definitely going to be on the lookout. The recipe looks delicious!
