Spiced Pumpkin Dip with Roasted Marshmallow Topping

October 25, 2012 · by · 9 Comments

I posted last night that I had some Pumpkin Dip baking in the oven. Well, like a true blogger- I took photos 😉 Here is the recipe! I cut up apples for dipping. You can also use graham cracker dippers or buy pre-made pie crust {or make your own} to cut into dippers.

*This is a natural food allergy friendly treat. 

Beat cream cheese until fluffy- This is an important step to getting a smooth texture. 

Grab a child and put him to work. Did I just write that? Bahaa! Eh hem…Add pumpkin puree, brown sugar, pumpkin pie spice and marshmallows. {This son of mine is going to make one fine husband one day btw} 

Sprinkle with chopped nuts {I used chopped peanuts- can you believe the price of pecans these days?!} 

The best part…

Bake in a 350 oven covered for 20 mins, then take off foil and broil on low for 2 mins to roast the marshmallows. 

Tasty!!!! Mmmmmm….

    Janelle, this looks so good! Can I tell you that you are such a blessing to me. Cooking is not one of my gifts, but I try. You have everything set up with pictures and instructions. I love that, because I am a visual person and i love the step by step pictures. I am going to try to make this for my family and friends this weekend. I will let you know how it turns out.

    The gooeyness of that picture is overwhelming!!! I always buy 1-2 big ol’ bags of pecans from Sam’s somewhere in October and it will last me until Christmas…usually. It saves a few $, which is better than like $7 for a 1/2 cup at the grocery store. Had a pecan tree when I was a little girl; didn’t know how lucky I was!

    That looks utterly scrumptious! And I have to agree with you about the pecan prices—they are way too high for a family that loves pecan pie way too much.

    Hi Janelle,
    I saw this delicious recipe on your site and made it for Bible Study tomorrow and will bake it in the morning. I doubled the recipe and wonder if I need to double the baking time or not. Would you know or care to venture a guess? 🙂

    Thanks!
