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!)
