Equipment

Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounce block cream cheese (softened)
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 8 ounce whipped topping (such as Cool Whip)
  • 3.4 ounce instant vanilla pudding mix
  • 1 cup milk
  • Neon green gel food coloring
  • For garnish: Halloween sprinkles (purple, green, black, etc.), candy eyeballs, gummy worms

Instructions
 

  • Add cream cheese to a medium mixing bowl. Use an electric mixer to beat the cream cheese until smooth and fluffy.
  • Add powdered sugar and beat again until fully combined.
  • In a separate bowl, whisk together the vanilla pudding mix and milk for about 2-3 minutes, until smooth and beginning to thicken.
  • Add the pudding mixture to the cream cheese mixture and beat on low speed until smooth.
  • Use a spatula to fold in the whipped topping until fully combined and no streaks remain.
  • Add neon green food coloring to reach your desired spooky shade and stir until evenly tinted.
  • Refrigerate for 30 minutes if desired, or serve immediately.
  • Before serving, top with Halloween sprinkles, candy eyeballs, and gummy worms.

Notes

  • Serve with dippers of choice, such as: apple slices, fresh strawberries, graham crackers, vanilla wafers, marshmallows, pretzels, or Halloween cookies.
  • Optional: Serve in individual cauldron cups for parties, with dippers already added to the cups!
  • Sugar-free vanilla pudding works just as well and is a great lower-sugar option.
  • You can skip the food coloring if preferred--the dip will just be a light creamy color. For Halloween flair, though, the green adds a fun witchy vibe.
  • 
Store in the refrigerator, covered, for up to 3 days.
  • 
This is a great no-bake recipe for kids to help with—just let an adult handle the mixer, and the kids can help decorate it!
