Pumpkin Pie Dip
I came up with this rich, creamy pumpkin dip when I had a small amount of canned pumpkin left in the fridge after my holiday baking. It's also great served with sliced pears and apples, or as a spread on zucchini bread. —Laurie LaClair, North Richland Hills, Texas

This was TOTALLY AWESOME. Made it as per recipe but I did not put the full 2 cups of confectioner sugar. Tried it on apple slices, Bagels, Gingersnaps, and anything else we could spread some on. I did freeze some as this does make a lot.

Put all ingredients onto food processor at once, added just a hit of vanilla flavoring. Worked great!
I made a batch of this dip for a party and it was great. I served mine with ginger snaps. Just be warned...this makes A LOT of dip! I would definitely halve the recipe. On that note though, I know it freezes very well, as that's what I did with my leftovers. It didn't have any impact on the texture. This would be a good choice to feed a crowd.
I made this dip earlier in the week to go with phyllo mini shells, as a test to see how they would hold up--would they make the shells soft, would the pumpkin mixture separate, etc. I was pleased that they kept their shape, didn't separate or make the shells mushy. In addition, I had some left over so I filled some zucchini slices with it. The zucchini with the filling went faster than the plain sliced zucchini.
I made this for a lunch that I hosted. It was a nice light and cool dessert. Our guests raved about it. I served it with Vanilla wafers and graham cracker sticks, but it would be delicious with fresh apple slices for a lighter dessert.
LOVE IT! Made it twice this season and can't get enough! I've used whipped cream cheese (mostly because its what I had on hand) and extra pumpkin (just because I love pumpkin), and kept the rest of the recipe the same and thought it was fabulous "as is"! We also served ours with sliced granny smith apples and no one complained it was too sweet as they gobbled it down. Definitely a keeper!
This is a great way to use leftover pumpkin, but it was too sweet for us. Next time, I'm going to reduce the sugar, omit the spices and try using leftover pumpkin pie mix.
Delicious!! I used the same recipe but served with mini nilla wafers...perfect!!
Great tasting. I didn't think it was to sweet at all.
