Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup canned pumpkin puree
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2 cups vanilla wafer crumbs
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 16 oz semi-sweet chocolate or melting wafers
  • Optional: chopped nuts or sprinkles for decoration

Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese with the canned pumpkin puree. Whisk until smooth and creamy.
  2. Add pumpkin pie spice, vanilla extract, and powdered sugar to the mixture. Mix thoroughly until all ingredients are well incorporated.
  3. Gently fold in vanilla wafer crumbs until evenly combined.
  4. Using a small cookie scoop or your hands, form the mixture into 1-inch diameter balls. Place on a parchment-lined baking sheet and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
  5. Meanwhile, melt the semi-sweet chocolate or wafers according to package instructions.
  6. Dip each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate using a fork or dipping tool, then place back on the parchment-lined sheet.
  7. Optional: decorate with chopped nuts or sprinkles before the coating sets.

Notes

  • Ensure the truffles are thoroughly chilled so the chocolate coating sets properly.
