Pumpkin Mascarpone: Beat whipping cream in a mixing bowl just until barely stiff peaks. In a separate mixing bowl, combine pumpkin, brown sugar, mascarpone, vanilla, cinnamon, and pumpkin pie spice until smooth. Fold in whipped cream, until combined.
1 cup canned pumpkin puree, 2/3 cup light brown sugar, 8 oz mascarpone cheese, 1 teaspoon vanilla extract, 1 1/2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice, 1 cup heavy whipping cream
Assemble: Add coffee (and liqueur if using) to a shallow bowl. Dip the lady fingers in the coffee (don't soak them--just quickly dip them on both sides to get them wet) and lay them in a single layer on the bottom of an 8x8'' or similar size pan.
Smooth half of the pumpkin mascarpone mixture over the top. Add another layer of dipped lady fingers. Smooth remaining pumpkin mascarpone over the top.
Dust cocoa powder over the top (I use a fine mesh strainer to do this).
unsweetened cocoa powder
Refrigerate for 3-4 hours or up to overnight before serving.

Notes
Alcohol: Pumpkin tiramisu can be made with or without alcohol. This recipe calls for coffee flavored liqueur because I like that it enhances the coffee flavor, but other options are marsala wine or brandy. The liqueur is optional and can be left out if preferred.Make Ahead Instructions: Pumpkin tiramisu can be made up to 2-3 days ahead.Lady Fingers: Should be a 7 ounce package (about 24 cookies). I love the Savoiardi brand.Classic Tiramisu Recipe
