Ingredients

    1 envelope Knox Gelatin
    1/4 cup cold water
    1 30oz. can Pumpkin Pie Mix
    3 T crystallized ginger
    1 8 oz. carton Cool Whip
    1 16 oz. store-bought Angel Food Cake
    12 gingersnap cookies

Directions

1. Cut angel food cake into 1'' chunks.
2. Pour 1/4 cup cold water into sauce pan, sprinkle 1 envelope Knox gelatin into water and let stand 1 minute.
3. Heat gelatin on low-heat until dissolved.
4. Once gelatin is cooled to room-temperature, add to canned pumpkin pie mix.
5. Gently fold 1/2 (4oz) cool whip and chopped crystallized ginger into pumpkin pie/ gelatin mixture until combined. Do not stir vigorously.
6. Assemble: There are various ways to present this dessert. You may layer in a glass bowl (angel food cake, pumpkin mousse, cool whip, repeat), use a 9X13 baking dish, or create individual servings in a glass or plastic dish. I used plastic martini glasses, and topped with toasted almonds and a gingersnap cookie. You may also sprinkle cinnamon, top with more crystallinzed ginger, chocolate shavings, cookie crumbles, etc.
