Pumpkin Spice Cream Cheese Spread

November 13, 2014 by Meghan 5 Comments

These days you can’t go into the store without finding pumpkin-flavored everything. It seems like every company is capitalizing on the pumpkin craze and releasing new products all the time. Sometimes I am tempted to buy all the pumpkin things. But sometimes I see something in the store and am motivated to go home and make my own version.

This was exactly the case when I saw not one but two different brands of pumpkin spice cream cheese in the supermarket last week. A flavored cream cheese spread seemed easier enough to make at home. It turns out that I already had all of the ingredients on hand and was able to make my own pumpkin spice cream cheese spread in just minutes. It has been at least a year or two since I have tried store-bought pumpkin cream cheese but like so many other things, I can only imagine this homemade version is so much better. It is thick, creamy and adds just the right amount of fall flavor to your regular cream cheese.

    This is such a great idea! I’ve seen these in the supermarket too but haven’t tried them and love that you made your own pumpkin spice cream cheese spread! I would be tempted to put that on everything too 🙂
