- ½ cup light brown sugar, packed
- 1½ teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger

- Using a medium-sized mixing bowl and a handheld mixer on medium-high speed, beat the softened cream cheese for 1 minute until smooth. Use a silicone spatula to scrape down the sides.
- Lower the mixer speed to low and add the canned pumpkin puree, brown sugar, and vanilla extract. Increase the mixer speed to medium and continue mixing for 1 minute, then scrape down the sides of the bowl.

- Tightly cover the pumpkin dip and refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.
Notes
- Watch out when you are at the grocery store that you buy pure pumpkin puree and not canned pumpkin pie filling.
- This sweet dip can be made ahead of time. Just leave off any toppings such as whipped cream until you are ready to serve.
- Make sure your cream cheese is at room temperature so that you don’t have any lumps in your dip.
