Easy Salted Caramel Pumpkin Cheesecake Parfait
If you are tired of slaving over the stove around Thanksgiving, or any other special occasion this time of year, then this is the dessert for you! Salted caramel pumpkin cheesecake parfaits are the cheater’s version, okay maybe time-saver’s version sounds better, of the famous pumpkin pie!
This is the way to go if you’re looking for the easy way out, but do not want to sacrifice an ounce of the tastiness that pumpkin pie offers. This recipe is a winner, and may just take the place of your traditional pumpkin pie from now on… I mean who doesn´t like anything that´s EASY to make but still tastes delicious??
Bring it on!
The main ingredient, is, of course, PUMPKIN. You get to choose between tinned or homemade. Besides just being plain fun to bake with this time of the year, these members of the squash family, along with most other orange produce, pack in a huge punch of vitamin A – great for your eyes and skin! In fact, just one cup of pumpkin will give you almost 200% of your daily vitamin A requirement! Wow!
Thanks to the rich cream cheese used to make it, it´s the perfect indulgence that you can’t help but savour every last bite of..
For a base, I also used some leftover pumpkin spice bundt cake, cut into small squares. If you haven’t baked yours’ yet, it’s time to get on top of it! This bundt cake is super delicious!
To top off all the deliciousness that these delicious parfaits are already full of, inside and on top, it contains homemade salted caramel sauce. Tell me you’re not motivated to jump up, run into your kitchen, and get started!

I love a good parfait, I have no idea why I don’t eat them very often. I might just have to change that!
They are so easy to make and you can add as many or as little things you like 🙂
