Ingredients

Scale

Cream Cheese

  • 2 packages (8 ounces / 226 g each) cream cheese, softened

Dry & Flavorings

  • 1½ cups (180 g) powdered sugar
  • 1½ cups (365 g) pure pumpkin puree
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice

Whipped topping & Caramel

  • 1 container (8 ounces / 227 g) whipped topping, thawed
  • ¼ cup (60 ml) caramel sauce, plus 2 tablespoons for topping

Instructions

ol

  • Prepare the base: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and powdered sugar with an electric mixer on medium speed until smooth, creamy, and free of lumps. Scrape down the sides as needed.
  • Incorporate pumpkin flavor: Add the pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice to the mixture and beat until fully incorporated and the color is uniform with a warm spice aroma.
  • Airy texture: Gently fold in the thawed whipped topping with a rubber spatula until the dip is light and fluffy, taking care not to overmix.
  • Add caramel: Pour in ¼ cup caramel sauce and fold gently until evenly distributed. Transfer the dip to a serving bowl and smooth the top with a spatula.
  • Marble topping: Drizzle the remaining 2 tablespoons caramel sauce over the surface. Use a knife tip or small spoon to swirl caramel into the dip for a marbled look.
  • Serve or chill: Serve immediately with apple slices, graham crackers, gingersnaps, vanilla wafers, or pretzels. For a firmer texture and deeper flavor, cover and refrigerate for about 30 minutes before serving.

    • Notes

    • Idea: For a lighter dip, substitute half of the cream cheese with light cream cheese.
    • Make-ahead: The dip can be prepared up to 1 day in advance and kept tightly covered in the refrigerator.
    • Texture tip: If you prefer a thicker dip, increase the cream cheese by 2 oz (56 g) and reduce the whipped topping slightly.
