It's that time of the year where we start seeing pumpkin spice all around so I wanted to share one of my favorite pumpkin spice recipes...actually, I am already late since the season seemed to start in August this year! Any-who, this recipe gives a fun twist to cashew cheese spread and it is not your typical pumpkin spice recipe since it can be used for an appetizer or dessert.

​It is great to have on hand when you have a craving for pumpkin spice but don't want to fall off course with your healthy lifestyle. Only quality ingredients are used in this recipe, which is another reason why I love it. This pumpkin spice cheese pairs wonderfully with sliced pears or apples and can be enjoyed warm, straight out of the oven, or chilled overnight. Happy Pumpkin Season!
