With all the amazing and complex flavors of your favorite Fall pie, this pumpkin pie dip comes together in 5 minutes, with minimal effort, and no baking!
Preheat oven to temperature listed on package (mine was 450 degrees), and line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Lay pie crust out on a cutting board and cut out shapes. I use THIS leaf cutter.
Transfer pieces to prepared baking sheet and bake about 6-7 minutes, or until slightly golden brown.
MAKING THE DIP:
To a large mixing bowl, add cream cheese and powdered sugar. Use a handmixer on LOW to beat until combined. Increase speed to MED-HIGH and beat until smooth and creamy.
Add in pumpkin, sour cream and spices and beat until well combined.
Add thawed whipped topping and beat on LOW for an additional 30 seconds - 1 minute, until smooth.
Spoon dip into a serving bowl, sprinkle with cinnamon and serve with pie crust dippers or gingersnaps, graham crackers, apples, etc.
IF DESIRED:
Spoon dip into a pastry bag and freeze for 15 minutes to firm it up.
Pipe a dollop of the dip onto pie crust dippers (or desired cookie/cracker) and serve.
