My pumpkin cream cheese dip is the perfect sweet and creamy dessert dip for Halloween, Thanksgiving, and all your fall festivities. It’s made with just a handful of simple ingredients, only takes a few minutes to whip up, and tastes just like pumpkin pie. I love to dip all kinds of cookies in this delicious pumpkin dip!

This sweet and creamy pumpkin cream cheese dip packs all the flavors of pumpkin pie into a shareable dip. I love to serve this creamy pumpkin dip on Halloween for all the moms to snack on while we pass out candy. I always make a double batch because it’s just that good!

What’s in This Pumpkin Cream Cheese Dip Recipe?

  • Cream Cheese: Forms the base of the dip, making it creamy and tangy. Full-fat cream cheese delivers the richest and creamiest flavors, but you can make this dip healthier with reduced-fat cream cheese, or swap half of the cream cheese for plain or vanilla Greek yogurt.
  • Powdered Sugar: Sweetens the dip without making it gritty and helps give it structure.
  • Pumpkin Puree: Adds a rich orange color and an earthy pumpkin flavor to the dip.
  • Heavy Cream: Helps thin the mixture to a dippable consistency.
  • Pumpkin Pie Spice: Adds a warm and spicy flavor.
  • Vanilla Extract: Enhances the sweetness of the dip.

Tips for Success

  • Soften the cream cheese before using it so that it combines more easily. I like to take it out of the fridge 30 minutes before I’m ready to make the dip.
  • It’s quickest and easiest to make this dip in a stand mixer. If you do it by hand, make sure that it’s smooth at every step.
  • Add in the heavy slowly until you get your desired consistency. Add less if you prefer it stiffer or more if you want it a little looser.
  • If your dip turned out runny, you may have added too much heavy cream. You can remedy this by adding a bit more cream cheese or pumpkin puree and blending until it thickens back up.
  • This pumpkin dip is easy to jazz up with just a few simple additions. Try adding some chopped pecans and a drizzle of maple syrup; a swirl of melted chocolate, white chocolate, marshmallow fluff, or caramel sauce; or a dollop or two of Greek yogurt!

How to Store

Store leftover pumpkin pie dip in an airtight container, or tightly covered with plastic wrap, in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or in the freezer for up to 2 months. Let thaw overnight in the refrigerator and stir well before serving.
