Pumpkin Dip



1 (8 ounce) pkg cream cheese
2 c confectioners sugar
1 (15 oz) can pumpkin
1 T ground cinnamon
1 T pumpkin pie spice
1 t frozen orange juice concentrate

In a medium bowl, blend cream cheese and confectioners sugar until smooth. Gradually mix in pumpkin. Stir in the cinnamon, pumpkin pie spice and orange juice until smooth and well blended. Chill until serving. I like to make this the day before because I think it tastes so much better completely chilled. Serve in a hollowed out pumpkin or dip bowl of your choice. Place Ginger Snaps, apple slices, or even cinnamon Teddy Grahams around the dip! Delicious, festive looking, and easy :-)
