Why You’ll LOVE This Pumpkin Pie Dip Recipe
- Everything you love about Pumpkin Pie: pumpkin filling and whipped cream, WITHOUT the stress of making pie. It is no bake, crustless, and takes significantly less time. Make my Pie Crust Cookie Chips to make up for the crustless part.
- Tastes better than other pumpkin pie dips! Hear me out, the 3 layers in this dip gives so much more pumpkin flavor than the ones where everything is mixed together into 1 dip.
- Only 5 simple ingredients needed- cream cheese, whipped cream, powdered sugar, pumpkin pie filling, and ground cinnamon… 6 if you include the sprinkles.
- It can be made ahead of time (I actually think it tastes better the next day). This makes it the perfect, stress free dish to serve during the holidays, or take with you to a party.

Ingredients for Pumpkin Pie Dip
This is not your average Pumpkin Pie Dip, there are three layers of deliciousness to this recipe: no bake cheesecake bottom, pumpkin pie filling, whipped cream topping with a dusting of ground cinnamon.
- Cream Cheese: I recommend full fat cream cheese for this recipe. Also, make sure you bring it to room temperature prior to mixing up your dip or you will get large lumps in your cheesecake.
- Cool Whip: You can also make homemade whipped cream, whichever you prefer.
- Powdered Sugar: This gives the dip stability and a subtle sweetness.
- Pumpkin Pie Filling: I used canned filling because it is not only easier, but it comes pre spiced and sweetened. I do give you a recipe for transforming a pumpkin puree into pumpkin pie filling in the recipe card and below.
- Ground Cinnamon: This amps up the spice and is dusted on top of the whipped cream layer. I like this one.
- Festive Sprinkles (optional): I use a blend of brown, orange, and yellow that is perfect for fall.
Homemade Pumpkin Pie Filling from Pumpkin Puree
If all you have is pumpkin puree, I got you covered! Just combine the ingredients below… it is that easy.
- 2 cups of pumpkin puree (or 1- 15 ounce can)
- 1/2 cup brown sugar
- 1 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
How To Make Pumpkin Pie Dip
This is a short summary, the recipe card below will have detailed instructions.
1. Whip together your No Bake Cheesecake (cream cheese, part of the whipped cream, and powdered sugar) using a stand mixer or hand mixer.
2. Construct the Pumpkin Pie Dip in a serving dish: no bake cheesecake and pumpkin pie filling.
3. Construct the Pumpkin Pie Dip in a serving dish: the remaining whipped cream, ground cinnamon, and sprinkles (if you want).
4. Refrigerate for AT LEAST 30 minutes. This not only helps the flavors to deepen and further develop, but it tastes even better. I recommend chilling overnight for the best flavor.
5. Serve with dippers of your choice (examples in the next section).
Storing Information
Any leftover Pumpkin Pie Dip should be stored in an airtight container and in the refrigerator. It will last up to 4 days. I do not recommend freezing this dip because once it is thawed the texture is unpleasant.
What Dippers to Serve With Pumpkin Pie Dip
You have a lot of options, but here are my favorites:
- pie crust cookies (my go to recipe)
- sliced apples or other types of fruit
- pretzels
- shortbread or other cookies
- broken sugar cones
- graham crackers
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ’s)
Yes (that is what I prefer to do) and it can be made 1 to 2 days before you plan on serving it. Make sure you store it covered and in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
Your cream cheese was most likely too cold which kept it from incorporating well with the other ingredients. It may also be because you did not whip the mixture well enough or for long enough.
This recipe makes 2 cups of dip which will feed 8 to 10 people (1/4 cup serving). Doubling it will feed 16 to 20 people and tripling it 24 to 28. I recommend spreading this dip in a large, shallow dish. This makes it easier for party guests to serve themselves and they get all the layers this way.

Can I use whipped cream, maybe stabilize it, rather than Cool-Whip? Not a fan. But I love the whole idea of this. Thank you.

Of course! Whipped cream works great! Enjoy it!

I love that this gave me an excuse to eat pumpkin pie without having to make a crust. Will definitely be making thsi easy dip again! Thanks
Loooved this! It’s like pumpkin pie but so much more fun to eat! Loved all the dipper suggestions, too!
Such a great idea. I love the whole thing, I am such a big pumpkin pie fan!
What a great fall dip recipe!! I made this for a potluck dinner and everyone was asking for the recipe!!
We are hooked! My daughter and I are the only ones in the house that like pumpkin pie, so it has never made sense to buy a whole pie just for the two of us. Made a half batch of this and it satisfied our craving to no end!
This recipe is SO easy and SO delicious! I am not a big pumpkin pie fan, but this dip has me hooked! It is the perfect balance of sweet and savory, and it is so addicting! I cannot get enough of it!
