How This Pumpkin Fluff Is Different

It's made WITHOUT Cool Whip and without pudding!
It's made WITH cream cheese to give it a pumpkin cheesecake flavor and creamy consistency.
You can control the sugar/sweetness because you are making your own freshly whipped cream (which takes 1 minute).
It uses real pumpkin puree so you know you're getting the real thing.

🛒 Ingredients

Canned Pumpkin Puree- Make sure you do NOT grab the pumpkin pie filling. That is to use for pies and has added sugars and spices.
Whipping Cream- We will be whipping up our own 1 minute whipped cream and controlling the sweetness.
Pumpkin Pie Spice- This is a pantry staple this time of year. You can make your own spice using cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, all spice, and clove!
Cream Cheese- This is what's going to give it the creamy cheesecake-like flavor. You can use fat free if you wish.
Powdered Sugar- Everyone wants a different sweetness level when it comes to desserts so you can add as much sugar or as little as you want to make the perfect pumpkin fluff dip.

A pumpkin with the center hollowed out to use as a bowl.

🎃 Festive Serving Tips

Option #1: Make A Pumpkin Bowl Using A Real Pumpkin

Try serving your pumpkin dip in an actual PUMPKIN for an added 'WOW' factor! Here is a video that shows you how to clean out a pumpkin if you want to serve the dip inside one. Just make sure to get yourself a SMALL pumpkin if you want to use it to hold this dip.

Option #2: Use A Ceramic Pumpkin Bowl

I have a FEW of this around the house that I use for many things this time of year. (I always find them at Target for less than $5.00 around fall.) I will put candy in them, cookies, or DIPS! It is beautiful and a lot quicker than cleaning a real pumpkin out.

These babies are also the perfect vessel for taking dips to parties! Just scoop the dip inside, cover with the lid and use a large rubber band to keep the lid closed! Then tell the host or hostess they can keep the pumpkin at a thank you gift!

If you want to add a creamy element, serve a bowl of my boozy bourbon whipped cream for those who don't mind dairy!
