Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 can (15 oz) pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Optional Garnish

  • 1/2 cup crushed graham crackers


Instructions

  1. Combine Pumpkin and Cream Cheese: In a large mixing bowl, combine the pumpkin puree and softened cream cheese. Use an electric mixer on medium speed until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  2. Add Powdered Sugar: Gradually add the powdered sugar to the pumpkin and cream cheese mixture. Beat until fully incorporated and smooth.
  3. Incorporate Spices: Add the ground cinnamon, ground ginger, and ground nutmeg. Mix well until the spices are evenly distributed throughout the dip.
  4. Add Vanilla Extract: Stir in the vanilla extract and mix until well combined.
  5. Transfer to Serving Bowl: Once the dip is smooth and thoroughly mixed, transfer it into a serving bowl.
  6. Garnish (Optional): If desired, sprinkle crushed graham crackers over the top of the dip for added texture and flavor.
  7. Chill the Dip: Chill the dip in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to meld together.
  8. Serve: Serve with graham crackers, apple slices, or ginger snaps for dipping.

Notes

  • The dip benefits from chilling to let flavors meld and the texture firm up slightly.
  • Ensure cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps and to achieve a smooth texture.
  • Garnish with crushed graham crackers adds a nice crunchy contrast but is optional.
  • Pair with fresh fruit or crunchy cookies for a well-rounded appetizer or snack.
  • Can be prepared ahead and refrigerated for up to 2 days, covered.
