Beat the cream cheese and brown sugar until fluffy. Mix in pumpkin, vanilla and spices until smooth. Chill before serving. Delicious with graham crackers, gingersnaps or apple slices!

🍫🥜 BUCKEYE DIP

Beat cream cheese, peanut butter and vanilla until creamy. Gradually mix in powdered sugar, then gently fold in whipped topping and chocolate chips. Chill until ready to serve.

🍎🍯 CARAMEL APPLE DIP

Beat cream cheese, powdered sugar and vanilla until smooth. Spread into a serving dish, cover with caramel and sprinkle with toffee bits. Serve with crisp apple slices. SO good! 😍

🤎 CINNAMON DIP
