It’s time to dunk into dessert, literally!
Dips are often typecast as appetizers, and for good reason. They’re easy to make in big batches for parties and gatherings, they allow for casual grazing before a meal, and they offer endless flavor possibilities.
When you think of a dip, you probably envision something savory, like spinach and artichoke, buffalo chicken, or even hummus, but here’s a sweet surprise: with only four common ingredients you can whip up a sweet and seasonal dip for dessert!
That’s right, dips are just as good at the end of a meal as they are the beginning. This Whipped Pumpkin Cream Cheese Dip is packed with the flavors of fall thanks to Heinen’s pumpkin cream cheese spread and pumpkin pie spice.
What you choose to serve with your dip is just as important as the dip itself. Apples, berries and graham crackers would all be delicious, but nothing beats the crisp crunch and sweet flavor of Heinen’s salted caramel cookie crisps, available in the cookie aisle.
