:: Gingerbread Pumpkin Fluff ::

I don’t know about you, but this long weekend allowed for ample time to start thinking away about Thanksgiving and the holidays.  No… it wasn’t just me thinking about them, but my family as well.  “What would you like to bring to Thanksgiving?” Well for starters, my first choice will always lean towards dessert {obviously I have a sweet tooth}. I also like to think of simple recipes that I know will be an easy addition to my traditional dishes {that can be found here and here}.  This Gingerbread Pumpkin Fluff is simple, yummy, and can be either an appetizer or a dessert {whew… a two-fer}! It is a great sweet appetizer for family waiting for the turkey to be done, or a wonderful dessert for those who like pumpkin pie, but maybe aren’t fans of the crust.  This dip is similar to pumpkin pie but with the twist of cream cheese and marshmallow fluff.

While Mason on the other hand would of course lead with his sweet tooth and beg to dip his favorite cookies into this recipe.  Have you experienced these lovely cookie delights?  These Speculoos Cookies from Trader Joe’s are loved by all in our home.  Oh my!!!

    1. Thanks Shaina. Lot’s of pressure I am sure for you to bring a dessert, when maybe you want to take a break and enjoy. This is super easy a good one to whip up if you have to visit more than one Thanksgiving or if you actually want to enjoy the day without all the work. Thanks for stopping by.
