1 tsp pumpkin pie spice (or a mix of cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves)

Directions:
Prepare the Pumpkin Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the pumpkin puree, instant vanilla pudding mix, cold milk, and pumpkin pie spice until the mixture is smooth and begins to thicken.

Fold in Whipped Topping: Gently fold half of the thawed whipped topping into the pumpkin pudding mixture until it is well blended.

Layer the Trifle: In a large glass trifle dish (or individual cups), create layers in the following order:

A layer of crumbled gingerbread cookies.

A layer of the pumpkin pudding mixture.

A layer of the remaining whipped topping.

Repeat Layers: Repeat the layers (cookies, pumpkin mixture, whipped topping) until all ingredients have been used, finishing with a layer of whipped topping on top.

Refrigerate: Cover and chill the trifle in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours (or overnight) to allow the flavors to meld together and the cookies to soften slightly.
