Description

Discover the festive joy of Pumpkin Cheesecake Truffles, an irresistible fall-inspired treat perfect for Halloween parties and autumn gatherings. These bite-sized desserts combine creamy pumpkin filling with a chocolate coating, creating a deliciously indulgent experience that celebrates the flavors of fall.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • White chocolate or chocolate melts (for coating)
  • Optional: shredded coconut, chopped pecans or sprinkles for decoration

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese, canned pumpkin, vanilla extract, pumpkin pie spice, and powdered sugar. Mix thoroughly until smooth and creamy.
  2. Add the graham cracker crumbs gradually to the pumpkin mixture and stir until thick and cohesive.
  3. Using a small cookie scoop or your hands, shape the mixture into bite-sized balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Chill for at least 30 minutes.
  4. Melt the white chocolate or chocolate melts according to package instructions. Dip each chilled ball into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Decorate as desired with shredded coconut, chopped pecans, or sprinkles.
  5. Place the coated truffles on parchment paper and refrigerate for another 15-20 minutes until the chocolate hardens. Serve chilled.
