Pumpkin Cheesecake Lasagna – Filled with a graham cracker crust, pumpkin cheesecake filling, whipped cream and chopped pecans. The perfect fall dessert that’s great for a crowd!
If you’ve never had a dessert lasagna, you are missing out! They’re filled with layers of deliciousness and are always so refreshing. This pumpkin cheesecake lasagna is one of my favorites, as well as chocolate lasagna and lemon coconut cream lasagna.
I started dreaming up this pumpkin lasagna recipe (also known as pumpkin delight or pumpkin lust cake) a couple months ago when I made my famous chocolate lasagna. I knew I had to make a version for fall and pumpkin was the first thing that came to mind. And boy is it delicious!
I thought about using golden Oreo’s, but knew that a thick graham cracker crust would taste so much better. I am all about the thick crust! The brown sugar and cinnamon addition adds the perfect touch to this recipe!
If you like pumpkin cheesecake, I think you will really love this dessert! It’s a yummy twist. There are a few different steps that take a little bit longer, but it’s totally worth it! YUM! Dig in!
