We Love Layered Desserts!

Some of the most popular dessert recipes on this site involve pumpkin, especially during November around Thanksgiving, which tells me you guys LOVE pumpkin!

This layered Pumpkin Lasagna (aka Pumkin Lush) is loved for so many reasons:

  • Easy to make. It may look fancy, but it is very simple to put together.
  • Perfect for fall. From the pumpkin to the spices, every bite is a taste of Autumn.
  • Customizable. Switch up the crust, adjust the spices, or decorate the top in different delicious ways.

It’s very similar to the White Chocolate Lasagna and Lemon Lasagna I’ve posted on the site – it’s just a pumpkin version.

Ingredients

  • Golden Oreos
  • Pumpkin Oreos – Use more Golden Oreos with pumpkin pie spice or use crushed gingersnaps.
  • unsalted butter 
  • cream cheese
  • powdered sugar
  • Cool Whip – substitute Homemade Whipped Cream
  • instant pumpkin pudding – It must be instant pudding otherwise it will not set correctly. 
  • milk – Use whole milk for the creamiest texture.
  • white chocolate bar – Or vanilla candy coating to make the decorative curls.

Pro Tip!

A standard package of Oreos is 14.3 ounces. From the package, 2 rows contain about 30 Oreo Cookies which weigh about 10 ounces.

How to Make Pumpkin Lush

  1. CRUST. Crush Oreos in a food processor or Ziploc baggie and add your melted butter. Mix until it is well combined.
    • Press into the bottom of a 9×13 pan spreading out to cover the entire bottom of the pan.
  2. CHEESECAKE LAYER. In a medium bowl, combine cream cheese, butter, powdered sugar, and ½ of the cool whip. Mix well and pour over your Oreo Crust.
  3. PUDDING LAYER. In another bowl, make your pudding by adding the milk to a bowl and the instant pudding. Whisk together until pudding thickens. Pour over the cream cheese layer. Refrigerate for at least 5 minutes.
  4. GARNISH. Top off with the rest of your Cool Whip. Add white chocolate shavings.
  5. ENJOY! Refrigerate at least 1 hour before serving. ENJOY!

  • 1 (15 ounce) can of pumpkin puree
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  1. Mix pudding mix and evaporated milk together and refrigerate for 5 minutes. Add puree and Pumpkin Pie Spice and whisk together.
  2. Add milk until you get your desired texture. Start with ½ cup milk and mix up to 1½ cups milk. Do not mix in the full 3 cups of milk or it will be soup. Use for the pumpkin pudding layer in this pumpkin dessert lasagna.

Recipe Tips

This recipe for pumpkin lasagna is simple, with beautiful layers that you definitely want to see!

  • Mixing. Use a hand mixer or stand mixer to mix the different layers.
  • Whipped cream. Use heavy cream and powdered sugar to make Homemade Whipped Cream to use in place of store-bought Cool Whip.
  • Chocolate curls. Shave the sides of the chocolate bar with a vegetable peeler which makes beautiful curls.
  • Make Ahead + Store. This pumpkin lush can be made 24 hours in advance. Just cover and place in the refrigerator until ready to serve. It can be kept in the fridge for 3-4 days.

Notes

CAN’T FIND THE PUMPKIN PUDDING MIX??
Omit the instant pumpkin pudding mixes and 3 cups of milk and you can use this homemade recipe to make the pumpkin pudding layer.
  • 1 (5.1-ounce) package instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 (12-ounce) can evaporated milk 
  • 1 (15-ounce) can pumpkin puree
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
Mix pudding mix and evaporated milk together and refrigerate for 5 minutes. Add puree and Pumpkin Pie Spice and whisk together.
Add milk until you get your desired texture. Start with ½ cup milk and mix up to 1½ cups milk. Do not mix in the full 3 cups of milk or it will be soup. Use for the pumpkin pudding layer in this pumpkin dessert lasagna.
CAN’T FIND PUMPKIN OREOS?
  • I’d use Golden Oreos and add a little bit of Pumpkin Pie Spice OR use crushed Gingersnaps
DON’T LIKE OREOS?
  • A graham cracker or gingersnap crust on this dessert would be great too.
