Description

These Pumpkin Truffles are a delightful treat combining smooth cream cheese, pumpkin puree, and sweet white chocolate. Perfect for gatherings or a sweet snack, these simple homemade truffles deliver irresistible flavor in every bite. Make them for any occasion or simply to enjoy a taste of fall!

Ingredients

Scale
  • 4 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1/3 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 ¾ cups finely ground graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • ½ teaspoon cinnamon
  • 12 ounces white chocolate chips
  • extra graham cracker crumbs or english toffee bits, optional

Instructions

  1. In a mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese and powdered sugar. Beat until creamy and smooth.
  2. Mix in pumpkin puree and cinnamon, blending at medium speed until well combined.
  3. Add graham cracker crumbs, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon. Mix until incorporated and dough is thick.
  4. Transfer dough to a bowl, cover and refrigerate for about 2 hours or longer if needed.
  5. Prepare a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  6. Scoop a tablespoon of dough and roll into a 1-inch ball. Place on the baking sheet, spacing each about 2 inches apart. Make approximately 20 truffles.
  7. Chill truffles in the refrigerator for 20-25 minutes before dipping in chocolate.
  8. Melt white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl at 100% power in 10-15 second intervals, stirring in between, until smooth.
  9. Use a fork to dip each truffle into the melted chocolate until fully coated. Remove and scrape off excess chocolate.
  10. Place the truffles back on the baking sheet using another fork to keep sides clean.
  11. Repeat for remaining truffles and re-dip if needed to cover any areas.
  12. Sprinkle English toffee bits or graham cracker crumbs on top immediately after dipping. Allow to set to a hard shell.
  13. Refrigerate until fully set before serving. Truffles can sit at room temperature for a few hours before serving.

Notes

Ensure the cream cheese is softened for easier mixing.
You can customize toppings by using crushed nuts or different types of sprinkles.
Store leftover truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
