This is a very simple and easy to do recipe that’s great to do with the kids, and for kids parties (as well as adults Halloween parties).\u00a0 We made this recipe a couple of years ago for the school party, but instead of serving it in the pumpkin, we made “cookies sandwiches”, spreading the dip on one cookie, and sandwiching it with another.<\/p>\n
16 ounces cream cheese, softened
\n3 3\/4 cups pumpkin (or a 30ounce can)
\n4 cups powdered sugar (10x, or icing sugar)
\n2-4 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice (to taste)
\n1 small sugar pumpkin
\nSmall fun candies – candy worms, candy spiders, candy corn, etc.
\nShortbread, Oatmeal, GingerSnaps or any other hard cookie.<\/p>\n
If you have a hand mixer, this will go a bit easier.<\/p>\n
Mix together the cream cheese and pumpkin, until combined.\u00a0 Add in the sugar and spices and mix well.\u00a0 Refrigerate overnight to allow the flavors to meld.<\/p>\n
Meanwhile, carve out a pumpkin, removing seeds and strings.\u00a0 Fill with the pumpkin mixture.\u00a0 Put this on a plate or a halloween serving plate, and decorate with the small candies.\u00a0 Looks fun\u00a0 having the worms “crawling” out of the dip.<\/p>\n
Serve with the cookies to dip with.<\/p>\n
Note:<\/p>\n
If you don’t have pumpkin pie spice, use cinnamon, ginger, allspice – 2-4 teaspoons in total.<\/p>\n
