Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- 1 cup canned pumpkin puree (100% pumpkin, not pie filling)
- 1/2 cup sour cream (or plain Greek yogurt)
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1 cup frozen whipped topping, thawed (or homemade whipped cream)
Serving Suggestions
- Gingersnap cookies
- Cinnamon graham cracker sticks
- Apple slices
- Optional: pretzels or vanilla wafers
Instructions
- Soften the cream cheese: Let the cream cheese sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes until fully softened for easier mixing.
- Beat cream cheese and sugar: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with the powdered sugar until smooth and free of lumps.
- Add pumpkin and spices: Mix in the canned pumpkin puree, sour cream, ground cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice, and ground ginger until well combined and no streaks remain.
- Fold in whipped topping: Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping using a spatula, taking care not to deflate the light and fluffy texture.
- Chill the dip: Transfer the mixture to a serving bowl, cover it, and refrigerate for about 1 hour if you prefer a firmer texture.
- Serve and enjoy: Serve chilled alongside gingersnap cookies, cinnamon graham cracker sticks, apple slices, or your preferred dippers.
Notes
- Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened for a smooth dip without lumps.
- Use 100% pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling, for authentic flavor and texture.
- Adjust pumpkin pie spice amount based on preferred spice level.
- Sour cream can be substituted with plain Greek yogurt for a tangier dip.
- For a lighter alternative, homemade whipped cream can replace frozen whipped topping.
- Chilling the dip improves firmness and enhances flavors.
