Yummy Pumpkin Butter Recipe!

Okay so I've neglected posting a few posts. Actually I forgot to finish them and just realized they were there. This was in October.

Friday while helping Dalton's teacher at school I had the pleasure of tasting Pumpkin Butter on bread. I had never tasted Pumpkin Butter until that day, talk about delicious. It's so good you could eat it by the spoonful. I decided to post the recipe, it's very festive.

At first Dalton protested that he didn't like butter, but his teacher has a one taste no thank you bite. They have to at least try one bite. He bit into it and ate the whole slice of bread with pumpkin butter. Only one child out of twenty-three didn't finish their slice. Pretty amazing odds if you ask me.

Pumpkin Spiced Cream Cheese Spread

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

1. In a small bowl, beat softened cream cheese, sugar, and syrup till creamy.
2. Add pumpkin, spices and vanilla and beat till smooth.
3. Refrigerate at least one hour and enjoy!
