Ingredients

Dip Ingredients

  • 8 oz cream cheese (room temperature)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • ½ cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin spice
  • 1½ cups whipped topping (cool whip)

Optional Dippers

  • Sliced apples
  • Shortbread cookies
  • Molasses cookies
  • Graham crackers
  • Creme filled wafers

Instructions

  1. Whip Cream Cheese and Sugar: In a medium sized mixing bowl, whip together the cream cheese and powdered sugar using a mixer until the mixture is smooth and creamy, ensuring there are no lumps.
  2. Add Pumpkin and Spice: Incorporate the pumpkin puree and pumpkin spice into the cream cheese mixture, whipping again until fully combined for uniform flavor.
  3. Fold in Whipped Topping: With a rubber spatula, gently fold in the whipped topping to maintain its light texture while blending it evenly into the pumpkin mixture.
  4. Chill the Dip: Cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld and the dip to firm up slightly.
  5. Serve with Dippers: Remove from the fridge and serve the dip chilled alongside your choice of sliced apples, cookies, or crackers for dipping. Enjoy!

Notes

  • Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature for easier whipping and a smoother dip.
  • Use canned pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, for best results.
  • Adjust pumpkin spice amount to taste or substitute with cinnamon if preferred.
  • Can be made a day ahead and refrigerated, allowing flavors to develop.
  • Keep the dip covered while chilling to prevent it from absorbing fridge odors.
