Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice

Whipped Topping

  • 1 pint whipping cream
  • 1/4 cup white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

  2. Add pumpkin puree: Mix the pure pumpkin puree into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined and smooth.
  3. Whip the topping: In a separate bowl, whip the whipping cream, white sugar, and vanilla extract together until thick and stiff peaks form, indicating it is fully whipped.
