Okay, so I will be the first to admit it- this dessert dip looks gross, folks. But no worries because it also happens to be deliciously gross! And it is for Halloween. 






I mean, on what other day of the year can you get away with making a dessert dip that looks like vomit and actually impress your party guests- am I right? ;) 






I actually made this dip for my parents' costume party last Halloween. At first, the adults were a little hesitant to dig right in. But after they tried it, this dip disappeared pretty quickly. 






And the kiddos at the party immediately loved it & thought it was the best thing ever right from the get-go! (Shocking, huh?)






This dessert dip comes together pretty quickly- in less than 10 minutes. 






The carving of the pumpkin can take a little more time, but it is still pretty easy. I picked up a smallish medium white pumpkin (like the Cinderella variety) and had it scooped out and carved in about 15 minutes. 






You can totally use an orange pumpkin for this if you can't find a white one, but I just love how the paleness of this pumpkin worked so well with the theme of the dip. ;)

This Puking Pumpkin Dessert Dip gets it "chunks" from tropical mixed fruit pieces and mini marshmallows. So while this dip is kind of gross to look at, I can promise you all that it is also absolutely delicious!
