Pumpkin Cheesecake Crack Dip

Are you sick of pumpkin yet?

 You better not be since after today we still have 4 days left! Annnnd.... I can't guarantee it but I'm pretty sure you'll see some more pumpkin out of me in the days  leading up to Halloween.

The great thing about this weeks Pumpkin Party is that I don't feel alone. There are 7 other women out of their gourds for pumpkin. (Nice play on words there huh?)

Today's guest post is from Megan who is the blogger behind Wanna Be a Country Cleaver. If you remember Megan has guest posed here before. She shared this fantastic Coconut Curd recipe. She has made so many recipes that leave me drooling. Like these Boston Cream Pie Pancakes?!?! Come on! How can you not want a huge stack of those babies!

Today she has her Pumpkin Cheesecake Crack Dip, with a name like "crack" dip you now it is going to be good. And extremely addicting. I can tell you I will be making it for the kiddie's Halloween party with tiny little bat cookies to dip in it!

After Megan's overly addictive crack in pumpkin form...  be sure to check out today's giveaway from Popcorn Passion! 

Well hello there happy faces! I'm Megan from Country Cleaver and I'm so excited to be here with you all, and with Carrie, to share my favorite pumpkin treat of like, ALL. TIME. Perhaps that comes off as a little Overly dramatic...but it's so 110% worth ever ounce of drama, theatrics, and hooplah.

I was introduced to the wonders of Crack Dip out of a necessity, on one of those days where everything goes wrong, hormones run-amuck, and nothing in my kitchen couldn't satisfy the void. Sweet and cream cheesy was where it was at. But with fall in full swing, the crack dip had to morph to fit the season - with PUMPKIN.

So Pumpkin Cheesecake Crack Dip was born - and I have been devouring it ever since, with graham crackers, ginger snaps and sugar cookies all day long. My jeans are angry with me, but my pumpkin-philic tummy couldn't be more pleased.

Happy Pumpkin Week everyone! See you soon at Country Cleaver!
