Pumpkin Cheesecake Dip (with 10 Pumpkin Alternatives!)
Pumpkin Cheesecake Dip combines cream cheese, pumpkin puree, and warm spices folded into a whipped cream base. The result is a light yet creamy dip with traditional pumpkin pie spice flavor, suitable for dipping cookies or fresh fruit.
Ingredients
- 8 ounces cream cheese (1 package, room temperature)
- 1/2 cup sugar (or 3/4 cup powdered sugar)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 1 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1 ground cloves pinch
- 1 allspice ground
- 3/4 cups heavy cream (very cold)
- 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
Instructions
- In a stand mixer beat the heavy cream and 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar until its formed almost hard peaks (2-3 minutes).
- Remove from stand mixer and set aside into another bowl.
- Add the rest of the ingredients into the stand mixer and let it cream until fully combined and you can't taste the granules of sugar (alternately you can also use 3/4 cup of powdered sugar instead of the regular sugar).
- Fold half of the whipped cream in gently to lighten the dip before adding the second half.
- The first half will mostly deflate because the weight of the dip is still heavy, but the second half of the whipped cream will make it airy and light.
- Serve with your favorite cookies or fruit for dipping
