Pumpkin Spice Cream Cheese
Description
This spread combines Philadelphia cream cheese with canned pumpkin puree, vanilla, cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, brown sugar, and honey. The ingredients are beaten together until smooth, resulting in a rich and slightly sweet cream cheese infused with typical pumpkin pie flavors.
The mixture’s creamy texture and spiced pumpkin taste make it suitable as a seasonal topping or ingredient. Its sweetness and spice are well-balanced, complementing the slight tang of the cream cheese.
Use this spread on bagels or crackers, or incorporate it into recipes that call for flavored cream cheese. Because it contains pumpkin and dairy, keep refrigerated and consume within a reasonable time.
The original recipe was adapted from Pinch My Salt, which inspires variations on sweet spreads and dips.

- 1 tbsp honey
Instructions

Notes
- Use full-fat or reduced-fat cream cheese as preferred for texture variations.
