These no bake pumpkin cheesecake bars are easy to make, creamy, and packed with pumpkin flavour! The thick brown sugar graham crust has a touch of pumpkin spice. They are topped with fluffy whipped cream and more pumpkin spice. The cheesecake base uses whipped cream (no cool whip) to make it fluffy and creamy.

Crust
Prepare 8" or 9" square baking pan by lining with parchment paper (SEE NOTES). I used 2 strips of parchment paper layer out like a cross to get handles to help me lift the cheesecake out.
Mix graham crumbs, sugar, salt, and pumpkin spice in a large bowl. Add melted butter and stir well.

Transfer to cheesecake crust and smooth the top. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight. For clean cuts, freeze for 1 hour before cutting.
Assembly
Lift the cheesecake out of the pan using the parchment paper. Transfer to a cutting board. Trim any uneven edges and cut into 12 bars (4x3). Wipe the knife clean after each cut.
Whip the cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks. Transfer to a piping bag fitted with a star tip (I used a Wilton 1M). Pipe swirls on top of each bar. Sprinkle the tops with pumpkin spice and serve.
