Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 0.5 cup pumpkin puree blot with paper towels to reduce moisture
  • 1.25 cup powdered sugar
  • 1.25 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • 1.25 tsp pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 0.13 tsp fine salt
  • 12 oz white chocolate or vanilla candy coating
  • 1 tbsp coconut oil or shortening helps thin the coating
  • 2 oz dark chocolate, melted for drizzle optional
  • 0.5 cup gingersnap or extra graham crumbs, for coating optional for rolling
  • 0.5 tsp ground cinnamon for dusting, optional

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment and clear space in the freezer.
  • Beat the softened cream cheese in a medium bowl until completely smooth.
  • Blot the pumpkin puree with paper towels to remove excess liquid, then add to the bowl.
  • Mix in vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, and salt until creamy.
  • Beat in powdered sugar until combined and fluffy.
  • Stir in graham cracker crumbs until the mixture thickens and holds its shape.
  • Chill the mixture for 20 minutes to firm up.
  • Scoop tablespoon portions and roll into 1-inch balls; set on the prepared sheet.
  • Freeze for 10 minutes until the truffles feel solid.
  • Melt white chocolate with coconut oil until smooth, using short bursts in the microwave or a double boiler.
  • Dip each chilled ball into the coating, tap off excess, and return to the sheet.
  • Drizzle with dark chocolate and dust with cinnamon, or roll in gingersnap crumbs if you like.
  • Chill 10 minutes more to set the coating before serving.

Notes

Variation: Swap half the white coating for caramel chips for a caramel-pumpkin shell. Storage: Keep truffles refrigerated up to 5 days or freeze up to 1 month; thaw in the fridge overnight.
