So...this is pumpkin frosting? Is it spreadable?

I have only ever used this dip as an appetizer. It is definitely spreadable. I suppose it could be used as a frosting but I have never tried it. Therefore, I don't know how it would work out. If you try it as a frosting and wouldn't mind posting how it turns out I would be interested in the end result.

so, so, so good! i brought this to a function last nite and everybody loved it. my husband especially LOVES it.

it makes a ton, though. i think i could have 1/2ed the recipe and had plenty.

we dipped apples in it (my boys loved this) and then have even spread it on bread and toasted bagels.

next time i think i'd try lite cream cheese. and if i needed to thicken it up i would think just adding more powdered sugar would do the trick?

it's so delicious and so fallish.

i did this last night and use lite cream cheese. i think next time i'd use regular as it was just a bit too runny. although, i didn't add extra powdered sugar as my sis suggested. maybe i'll do that to the leftovers. it was super tasty, however. thanks becky.
