Ingredients
Scale
Base
- 4 ounces cream cheese (softened)
- ¼ cup powdered sugar
Pumpkin Mixture
- 15 ounces canned pumpkin
- 3.4 ounces white chocolate instant pudding mix
- 2 teaspoons cinnamon (plus a pinch for dusting)
- 1/8 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/8 teaspoon ground ginger
Whipped Topping
- 8 ounces whipped topping
Garnish
- 1 graham cracker (crushed for garnish)
Instructions
- Beat Cream Cheese and Sugar: In a large bowl, use a hand mixer on low speed to beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar until the mixture is well combined and fluffy, which should take about one minute.
- Add Pumpkin and Spices: Add the canned pumpkin, white chocolate instant pudding mix, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger to the bowl. Beat on medium-low speed until all the ingredients are thoroughly combined into a smooth mixture.
- Fold in Whipped Topping: Using a silicone spatula, gently fold the whipped topping into the pumpkin mixture until just combined, keeping the mixture light and airy.
- Chill the Dip: Cover and refrigerate the dip for at least one hour or longer to allow the flavors to meld and the dip to set.
- Serve and Garnish: Transfer the chilled dip to a serving bowl. Lightly dust the top with a pinch of cinnamon and sprinkle with crushed graham crackers. Serve alongside cinnamon graham crackers, vanilla wafer cookies, Biscoff cookies, or fresh apple slices.
Notes
- This dip can be made a day in advance and stored in the refrigerator, covered tightly, to enhance the flavors.
- For a lighter version, you can substitute low-fat cream cheese and whipped topping if desired.
- If white chocolate instant pudding mix is unavailable, vanilla pudding mix can be used as a substitute but will alter the flavor slightly.
- Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened before starting to make blending easier and the texture smoother.
- Serve with a variety of dippers to suit different tastes and preferences.
