ADVERTISEMENT

Instructions

  1. Beat softened cream cheese and confectioners’ sugar together with a mixer until smooth and creamy.
  2. Add pumpkin puree and mix until fully combined and evenly blended.
  3. Mix in graham cracker crumbs, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and melted white chocolate until a thick truffle mixture forms.
  4. Cover the mixture and refrigerate for at least 1 hour until firm enough to shape.
  5. Scoop small portions of the chilled mixture and roll them into smooth balls using your hands.
  6. Place the shaped truffles on a lined baking sheet and chill again for about 30 minutes.
  7. Melt the chocolate coating slowly until smooth and allow it to cool slightly.
  8. Dip each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate, letting excess coating drip off before placing it back on the lined sheet.
  9. Sprinkle with graham cracker crumbs or cinnamon sugar while the chocolate is still soft.
  10. Refrigerate the finished Pumpkin Spice Truffles until the coating is fully set before serving.

Notes

  • Use pumpkin puree instead of pumpkin pie filling to control the sweetness and spice level.
  • Keep the truffles chilled during preparation to make rolling and dipping easier.
  • Store finished truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week.
  • These truffles can be frozen for up to 2 months in a freezer-safe container.
  • For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free graham crackers.
