Tips for Making Pumpkin Cream Cheese Dip

  • Make sure to use pumpkin puree and NOT pumpkin pie filling. Pumpkin puree is plain pumpkin without sugar or spices added. 
  • You want to use brick-style cream cheese, not the whipped kind. It makes for a creamier, more flavorful pumpkin dip! 
  • If you drizzle the caramel sauce on too soon, it becomes watery and not quite as eye-appealing. Add it just before serving!
