This post is the crossroads of my teacher self and my blogger self.
You have some homework.
You need to make this glorious trio of pumpkin, cream cheese, and heavy whipping cream and bring it to a party. For me, a party is usually me and Bjork hanging out on a Tuesday night. But you can do whatever you want.
There are a few rules, because I’m the teacher.
You have to eat this pumpkin dip with gingersnaps. Translation: you need to put an XL (xtra large), XF (xtra fluffy) dollop of pumpkin dip on top of each cookie, and then do it again 50x.
One last rule. Drizzle maple syrup and crumble gingersnaps on top of the bowl, because it’s more fun to look at in the 2 minutes before it gets devoured.
Assignment due ASAP.

Heavy whipping cream is so dangerous in my fridge. So. So. Dangerous.
I love living dangerously.
I made the pumpkin dip & ginger snaps for a get acquainted party ā¦
It was a hit and Iāll definitely be making it again soon
Can I make this the night before? Party is tomorrow and there is so much to get done.
Yeah…I need like 5,000 of these stat. Pop quiz tomorrow! The student who brings the most gingersnaps and pumpkin dips gets an A+.
Thanks. This is sooo good. A coworker makes it and I love it. I was looking for the recipe so I can make it this coming thanksgiving. Thanks for posting it. I might not drizzle it with mapple syrup. I cant wait to make it

Could I be able to make this with out the cheese? Maybe substituting for something like yogurt even is it doesn’t end up as creamy? It looks delicious!
Yes, I think you could totally sub some yogurt. It won’t be as cheesecake-y, but you’d still get the same other pumpkin/maple flavors!
Sounds like a dippable version of fall in a bowl!! ~Delicious.
Extra credit for doubling the batch and eating it all immediately?
Absolutely. And a gold star, too!
I can totally handle this assignment š This dip looks fantastic!
I bet I could eat this without the cookie š This would be a great dip for a party! I have to make a dish to bring this weekend, this might just be the one!
I definitely put a spoonful or two into my oatmeal. What?
:O in oatmeal – – what a fabulous idea!!
Dessert for breakfast (disguised as oats) is always a good idea. š
Totally agree with this! I made a version of your dip this weekend and put a small bowl aside for me – served this over some oatmeal pancakes and again with a scone!
Yum. This could be seriously deadly. I can see myself eating gingersnaps like potato chips with this bowl of heaven at my side.
I made a pumpkin spread for bagels, but never thought to dip cookies into it! Genius!
Oh my goodness, pumpkin spread for bagels? Searching for that recipe now.
This dip looks yummy!
This is very similar to the pumpkin fluff recipe I like to make. I like to dip apples and ginger snaps in the pumpkin fluff too!

Yep, we had some honey crisp apples with it, too!
I like this kind of homework!
Good. š I like giving this kind of homework.
I’m going to a party this weekend… I may need to bring this as my offering. š
I have a feeling your offering will be well received. š
Not only does the dip and snaps look good, your nails look good! š
One word: Photoshop. š
That sounds delicious and perfect for a holiday party.
I bet this dip would be great on gingersnaps, and then some!
