Pumpkin Spice Fluff #Recipe @PegCochran #Halloween


 

I always think of Halloween as the beginning of pumpkin spice season but in reality it started while we were all still wearing shorts and T-shirts (and some of us still are!)  This pumpkin spice fluff is super easy to whip up and would make the perfect quick dessert for a party or just to satisfy a longing for more pumpkin spice!  It's stiffer than a pudding but if you close your eyes, the taste would make you think you were eating pumpkin pie filling.  I made this with all sugar free products but that's not necessary if that isn't a concern for you.  I don't like to eat a lot of artificially sweetened products but hubby (who has to watch his carbs) occasionally needs something to satisfy his sweet tooth.

 Did you know that pumpkin pie spice was created in 1934 by McCormick & Company?  Eighty percent of McCormick's pumpkin pie spice sales occur in the fall--from September to November!

 Ingredients

1 15-oz. can pure pumpkin
1 3.4-oz box instant vanilla pudding (can substitute sugar free if desired)*
1 8-oz. container of whipped topping such as Cool Whip (
can substitute sugar free if desired 
6 tsps. white sugar (or sugar substitute of your choice equaling 6 tsps. sugar)
1/2 tsp. pumpkin pie spice
1/4 tsp. vanilla extract 

* Note: The size of pudding boxes varies and can be either 1.5-ounces or 3.4-ounces. Be sure to check and buy two 1.5-ounce boxes if necessary.

 

In a large mixing bowl, add all of the above ingredients and mix.


 

Serve in a pretty bowl or individually in glasses or dessert dishes. Top with orange and black sprinkles if desired.
