This Pumpkin Pie Dip tastes just like pumpkin pie!  Serve with homemade Pie Crust Dippers and extra whipped cream.  A perfect fall dessert.

Note:  I recommend letting the finished dip rest for at least an hour (overnight is best) so all the flavours have a chance to meld together.

Instructions

Pie Crust Dippers:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350 degrees.
  2. Sift flour and salt into a bowl.

  10. Brush them with milk and generously sprinkle with a cinnamon & sugar mixture.
  11. Bake for 20 – 25 minutes, or until they are lightly golden.  Watch them carefully so they don’t burn.
  12. When they’re done baking remove them from the oven and set aside to cool.

Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake Dip:
