I've been steadily plowing my way through pumpkin recipes; it seems my pumkin craving is even more pronounced this year. Luckily, Pinterest has kept me well supplied with yummy things to try. Original post of this recipe is here. I've taken this dip to a couple different events and it's been a huge hit. Start thinking Christmas parties now that Thanksgiving is over...
Dip:
8 oz package of cream cheese, softened
1 cup powedered sugar
15 oz can of pumpkin
1 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
Apple slices for dipping
Mix everything together in a bowl using a hand mixer/beaters. Store in the fridge until ready to serve. Top with candied pecans to make it extra yummy and serve with apple slices!
Candied Pecans:
1 cup pecan halves
1 tablespoon butter
1 tablespoon maple syrup
1 tablespoon brown sugar, packed
Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
Melt butter in a sauce pan over medium heat.

Add pecans and stir to coat.
Spread pecans on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake pecans for 5-6 minutes or until golden brown and fragrant.
