Easy Pumpkin Dip Recipe

Graham crackers are my favorite thing to dip in this creamy pumpkin fluff! I also want to try dipping short bread cookies and these Sour Cream Cookies in the creamy fluff.
Grab a hot cup of coffee and sit outside with this pumpkin dip to enjoy the season. Savor the leaves changing colors, savor the delicious fall flavors in this dip and enjoy fall!
This recipe is great for a small snack to eat at home, but it can easily be doubled or add more cool whip to make a great party dip.
I enjoy snack foods that are easy to graze on while visiting with friends and watching football. Pumpkin Fluff is tailgate food at it’s finest! A few days ago I tried this Pineapple Pretzel Fluff Salad. Sometimes you just crave a good fluff and want to try multiple variations.
Easy Cinnamon Fruit Dip is the most similar appetizer recipe to this fluff. We also have meatier tailgate options that would go great with this pumpkin dip, Fiesta Sausage Dip, Easy Buffalo Chicken Dip or Bell Pepper Taco Dip with Meat. This recipe is my next party food to share with friends!
Pumpkin Fluff Pie
I try to make a few recipes for every big holiday meal. Thanksgiving can get a bit hectic having a small kid, trying to travel and go to multiple parties on the same day and cook.
This Pumpkin Fluff is perfect easy Thanksgiving dessert recipe to have ready! It can easily be mixed up ahead of time using a large 16-ounce container of whipped topping and stored in the refrigerator. Just before the meal begins spread the fluff in a purchased graham cracker crust and set out on the dessert table.
I always thought my Ten-Minute Berry Cheesecake was the easiest dessert to make in a graham cracker shell until my husband’s aunt shared this recipe with us. Pumpkin Fluff Pie can be made in 5 minutes!
How you want to use the fluff determines whether to use 8 ounces or 16 ounces of cool whip. The cool whip adds a lighter, creamier flavor to the pumpkin. In a dip I like the stronger pumpkin flavor. In a pie I like the lighter cream pie flavors. You can always start with 8 ounces, sample it and stir in more cool whip as desired.

- I have better luck folding this together by hand than using a mixer
