- 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 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.
