Sooo easy, low calorie, low fat and really tastes great! My husband loves it and we can eat dessert without feeling guilty!

Great! My 5 and 2 year old made this with very little help from me (measuring)! Tastes great, very quick and very easy!

This mousse was great. I used fat free cool whip and organic pumpkin puree and next time I might try it with light unsweetened almond milk. The taste and texture are amazing and the next day I had a serving as a quick pre-cross country lunch. I will defiantly be making this again!

Delicious! Made exactly as recipe is written except I added ground fresh ginger and nutmeg instead of allspice.

This dessert was great! I'm watching my figure so I am constantly looking for light desserts to eat after dinner. My family enjoyed it very much.

I liked it very much. Some have complained it was a little tasteless, which I could see. I added a few shakes of cloves and salt and it made it scrumptious!

Like it a lot. Quick and easy. I follow the Weight Watchers' plan so it fits perfectly.

Just a mediocre recipe with no outstanding flavor. Also, it is not a healthy recipe with sugar-free packaged pudding mix and fat-free Cool Whip. Don't waste the ingredients.

If you like pumpkin, this is excellent!
