Pumpkin Dip and Nutella Pumpkin Dip

First of all, kudos for the idea goes to my friend Kristen Schnibbe.

This dip goes great with a lot of things, many of which I'm still discovering. Some of those include apples, crackers, pretzels, mixed in with pancakes, etc.

Straight Up Pumpkin Dip:

Ingredients:

• 1 can pumpkin
• About 3/4ths an 8 ounce container of whipped cream cheese (I like Philadelphia)
• About 1/4th to 1/3rd a cup of brown sugar
• About 2-3 T cinnamon-sugar
• About 1-2 teas. vanilla extract
• A shake or two of nutmeg

Directions:

• Mix it all up

Nutella Pumpkin Dip:

Ingredients:

• All the same as the above
• Add in a couple T of nutella

Directions:

• Mix it up; eat
  

Pretty simple so...the end! You might want to try mixing some of either into pancake batter, then spread some caramel and apples between layers, top with some maple syrup and whipped cream. Just a thought. There are kind of a thousand different things you could do with this stuff that would be equally good. Ideas?
