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