Pumpkin Dip
Report
Thick, rich, and smooth, this Pumpkin Dip is a sweet fall treat that's full of cream cheese, pumpkin and warm spices.

Ingredients
- 2 (8 ounce) blocks cream cheese, softened
- 16 ounces powdered sugar, sifted
- 1 (15 ounce) can pumpkin puree
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- Optional, for serving: graham crackers, gingersnaps, sugar cookies, Nilla wafers, pretzels, apples, pears
Instructions
- Beat cream cheese with an electric mixer on medium speed until creamy.
- Gradually mix in the powdered sugar, beating well.
- Stir in pumpkin, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, cloves and salt. Cover and chill for at least 1 hour.
Notes
- Use blocks of cream cheese -- not the spreadable cream cheese from a tub. The spreadable cream cheese has more air and liquid added, which will give your dip an undesirable consistency.
- Let your cream cheese soften at room temperature. This will make it easy to whip. Cold cream cheese is too firm to blend into a light, fluffy dip.
- Make sure to use a can of 100% pure pumpkin puree -- not canned pumpkin pie filling. They look similar on the store shelves, but pumpkin pie filling has added sugar and seasonings that you don't want in this dip recipe.
- Sift the powdered sugar before adding it to the cream cheese. I know this is an extra step, but it's incredibly important. Otherwise, you may end up with little clumps of powdered sugar in the dip, which gives it a lumpy texture (no, thank you)! Instead, sifting the sugar results in a smooth, creamy dip.
- Cut the ingredients in half to prepare a smaller amount of dip. This recipe yields approximately 4 ½ cups, or about 18 servings at ¼-cup each.
