How To Make Pumpkin Fluff Dip
This simple pumpkin dip recipe comes together in no time with the help of premade pudding mix and a few simple ingredients! That means you can whip up your own batch of pumpkin fluff and start snacking with just a few minutes of prep work.
To prepare pumpkin fluff, start by combining the pumpkin puree, vanilla pudding mix, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and vanilla extract in a large mixing bowl. Stir together all the ingredients until they are well combined and the instant pudding powder is fully dissolved.
Next add the thawed whipped topping to the bowl and carefully fold it into the rest of the pumpkin ingredients. Continue folding until the whipped topping is fully combined with the rest of the ingredients and it is light and fluffy.
Then cover the bowl and place it in the refrigerator to chill for at least one hour or longer. You can make the pumpkin fluff ahead of time and store it in the refrigerator overnight before serving.
This simple recipe can be served in a variety of ways, which means it’s perfect for just about any occasion! As you’re waiting for your fluff to chill, consider these fun serving ideas.
Different Ways To Serve Pumpkin Fluff

- As a dip. Another fun way to enjoy this dessert recipe is to serve it as a dip. You can transfer your pumpkin fluff to a bowl and serve it with graham crackers, vanilla wafers, apple slices, or ginger snaps for dipping.
- In individual bowls or cups. Create individual desserts for each of your guests by transferring the finished recipe into small bowls, cups or mason jars. You can then chill the jars individually and top them with a dollop of whipped topping before serving.
