Try using half the Cool Whip, 4 oz of cream cheese and cheesecake pudding mix instead of vanilla... YUM!
Jenn says:

Okay, so I never really "got" the whole pumpkin obsession that everyone goes nuts about this time of year. Nonetheless, I'm part of a MOPS group and decided to make it to bring to our meeting tomorrow. I sampled some of it (got to make sure it's edible right!?) and it is D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S!! So good! And so simple to whip up. It makes A LOT! For once I'm actually hoping there are leftovers for me to have more! I'm sure it will taste even better tomorrow once the flavors really get together! :) Thanks for a great recipe!
Jessica says:

How long can this stay in the refrigerator before serving? Is a day or two okay or should I make it just before serving basically? Thank you!
Cyd says:

You will be fine to make this dip the day before. Place in the fridge and make sure to cover it. Either in an airtight container or with plastic wrap. :)
A.O. says:

This may sound silly but do you make the pudding then add the pumpkin? Or just the dry packet of pudding mix?
Cyd says:

Just the dry packet of pudding mix.
Kasha Kinney says:

The recipe and the video are doing two completely different things. So which is the correct way to make it? I plan to try it for Thanksgiving this year.
Momma Cyd says:

That is because they are 2 different recipes. The blog post has pudding mix and the one in the video has yogurt. So you can decide which one you like and make that one!
