This Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Dip needs to be at every fall party! Creamy brown sugar and pumpkin base, chock full of chocolate chips.Serve with gingersnaps, pretzels, grahams, or fruit!

Ingredients

½ cup unsalted butter
½ cup light brown sugar, packed
½ cup canned pumpkin puree
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 package (8 ounce) cream cheese, softened
2 cups powdered sugar
¾ cup mini chocolate chips

Instructions

In a small saucepan, combine butter, brown sugar, pumpkin and cinnamon. Heat on low and whisk until smooth (and butter is melted). Remove from heat and whisk in vanilla extract. Set aside to cool COMPLETELY.
In a large mixing bowl, combine cream cheese and powdered sugar. Beat 2 minutes until blended. Slowly add in the cooled pumpkin mixture. Beat until fluffy (about 3-5 minutes).
Fold in mini chocolate chips.
Refrigerate and allow to set, about 2 hours (or overnight).
Enjoy with gingersnap cookies, nilla wafers, graham crackers or pretzels!

Notes

Keep your saucepan on low when melting the butter with the brown sugar, cinnamon, and pumpkin. You don't want to BOIL this mixture, just whisk until melted and smooth
Heating the pumpkin and cinnamon instead of adding them in with the cooled cream cheese mixture results in a much creamier texture. Trust me.
Allow the pumpkin mixture to cool COMPLETELY before adding it to the cream cheese. It will never set up if you add it warm.
Refrigerate dip for two hours (more or less). It allows the flavors to mingle, and gives the cream cheese time to firm up again with the pumpkin mixture.
Serve with gingersnaps. You will LOVE the tasty snap of the cookie with the pumpkin dip. Also good dippers include pretzels, apples, Nilla wafers, and graham crackers.
