Pumpkin Cream Cheese Dip 

I really love simple dips like this, but you can also fill out your snack table by adding a healthy chocolate Greek Yogurt fruit dip, a Greek yogurt fruit dip recipe made delicious with honey and peanut butter, a cream cheese caramel apple dip, or a savory easy taco dip. Yum!

This recipe is provided by a guest author for The Parent Spot. 

• 11 ounce bag of caramels
• 1/4 cup heavy cream
• 8 oz. package of cream cheese
• 3/4 cup pureed canned pumpkin
• 1/3 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon vanilla
• 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
• 8 oz. Cool Whip

How to make

Add caramels and heavy cream to a medium saucepan. Cook on low, stirring constantly until they’re combined. Cool 15 minutes.  You can also microwave on high 30 seconds at a time, until melted, stirring every 30 seconds to combine.

Mix cream cheese until light and fluffy in a medium bowl. Add pumpkin, brown sugar, vanilla, and pumpkin pie spice. Stir until combined. Fold in the Cool Whip, using a spatula.

Now, you’re ready to assemble the dip!

Add 1/2 of the dip to a serving dish, and drizzle with 1/2 of the caramel sauce. Top with the other 1/2 of the dip, and drizzle with the remaining caramel sauce.

Serve with fresh fruit, graham wafers, crostini, vanilla wafers and animal crackers.
