Recipe of the Week; CREAMY PUMPKIN DIP

Happy Halloween!!

I have been making this simple, yummy, pumpkin dip recipe for YEARS. It's quick, simple, and decidedly festive when served in a small, hollowed-out pumpkin lined with plastic wrap.


INGREDIENTS
4 cups confectioners sugar
2 packages (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1 can (30 oz) pumpkin pie filling
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2 ground cloves

Combine sugar and cream cheese in mixing bowl. Mix on low until well blended. Add remaining ingredients.

Place in bowl or pumpkin, set in fridge for at least two hours before serving.

Use a a dip with gingersnaps cookies, sliced apples, pretzels, marshmallows, Teddy Grahams and/or graham crackers. I especially like to use the little mini gingerbread men cookies that you can find around this time of year.
