Cornucopia of Creativity: Pumpkin Fluff Dessert Dip {Madigan Made}

Hi Mom Endeav­ors read­ers! My name is Shan­non and I blog over at Madi­gan Made.

Some peo­ple have called me the Clark Kent of craft blog­ging. By day, I work as a phar­ma­cist and by night I cre­ate sim­ple crafts, décor and much more. I love shar­ing easy and cre­ative ideas with my read­ers… includ­ing sim­ple recipes.

I love fall! Thanks­giv­ing is one of my favorite hol­i­days. Today I wanted to share with you one of our family’s favorite desserts for this time of year… pump­kin fluff! This dip would be a nice, light option to include on your dessert table this Thanks­giv­ing. And it goes great with apples, mak­ing it a great fall fruit dip, too!

Sim­ple Pump­kin Fluff

Adapted from this recipe on All­recipes.

Ingre­di­ents:

• 8 oz. con­tainer frozen whipped topping
• 1/2 of a can (15 oz.) of  pureed pumpkin
• 1 tsp. pump­kin pie spice
• 1 small pack­age (3 oz.) of instant vanilla pudding
• Gin­ger­snap cook­ies (or gra­ham crackers)
• Apples, sliced

Direc­tions:

Using an elec­tric blender, blend the first four ingre­di­ents in a large mix­ing bowl.

Then just refrig­er­ate the dip until you are ready to serve. Share the dip with cook­ies and/or apples.

The pump­kin fla­vor in this dessert is light and mel­low. Even if you are not crazy about pump­kin pie… I bet you’ll still enjoy this dip either way.  I love that you can eat it with a cookie or fruit. OR you could just eat with a spoon! (I am soo guilty of that one!)

If you like easy ideas like this recipe, please join me at Madi­gan Made!I’m a big believer that cre­ativ­ity can be THAT sim­ple… let me show you! You can find me over at my blog, Madi­gan Made, and fol­low me on Face­book, Twit­ter, Google+ or Pin­ter­est, too.

Thanks so much, Sara, for invit­ing me to share today!
