Cooking Steps
- Add half the white chocolate chips (use all for 4 ppl) and 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) maple syrup to a large microwaveable bowl. Heat on high in 15-sec increments, stirring after each increment, until white chocolate is melted. Stir mixture until smooth. Add cream and 1/2 tsp (1 tsp) pumpkin pie spice mix, then whisk until combined. Transfer white chocolate base to the refrigerator until completely cool, about 20 min.
- Meanwhile, heat a medium non-stick pan over medium heat.
- While the pan heats, place a piece of parchment paper on a plate.
- When the pan is hot, add pepitas. Toast, stirring often, until light golden-brown, 3-5 min. (TIP: Keep your eye on pepitas so they don't burn!)
- Add half the graham cracker crumbs (use all for 4 ppl), honey and 1/2 tbsp (1 tbsp) butter. Season with salt. Then, stir to combine until pepitas and graham cracker crumbs are coated in the honey-butter mixture, 1 min.
- Remove from heat, then transfer to the parchment-lined plate.
- Using a whisk or an electric mixer, beat maple-white chocolate mixture for 1-2 min, until stiff peaks form and mixture is smooth.
- Divide maple-pumpkin mousse between 2 (4) cups or bowls. Drizzle with 1 tbsp (2 tbsp) maple syrup. (TIP: If you prefer your desserts a little less sweet, omit maple syrup drizzle!)
- Place in the refrigerator to set for at least 1 hour. (TIP: Maple-pumpkin mousse can be made the night before and placed in the refrigerator to set overnight!)
- Before serving, sprinkle pepita crumble over top.
