Blue Ribbon Recipe
Both the gingersnap cookies and the pumpkin dip are Blue Ribbon-worthy alone. Together, they are fantastic! The cookie is full of ginger spice. It's similar to a chewy molasses cookie. The pumpkin dip is similar in taste to a pumpkin cheesecake - sweet, smooth, and full of pumpkin spice. You can use the pumpkin dip for other cookies too. Try dipping sugar cookies or chocolate sandwich cookies. Yum! This will be a beautiful addition to a dessert table during the holidays.
