Ingredients You Need
Easy Pumpkin Cream Cheese Truffles Recipe
TRUFFLE FILLING
- 4 ounces cream cheese room temperature
- 3 Tablespoons confectioners’ sugar
- 1/3 cup pumpkin purée
- 1 3/4 cups graham cracker crumbs about 12 full sheet graham crackers
- 1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
white CHOCOLATE COATING
- 10 ounces white chocolate, coarsely chopped or white chocolate chips or candy melts
- Garnish with variations of toppings: Extra graham cracker crumbs, sprinkles, cinnamon, candies like candy corn
Instructions How To Make Easy Pumpkin Cream Cheese Truffles
TRUFFLE FILLING
- Using an electric mixer, mix together cream cheese and confectioners’ sugar until creamy. Add pumpkin pureé and beat until combined. Add graham cracker crumbs, pumpkin pie spice and cinnamon, mix on medium speed until incorporated for 2 minutes. Pumpkin mixture will be thick and smooth.
- Being the truffle mixture is very soft, it must be refrigerated for at least 1 hour (up to 1 day) before you can roll it into balls or use a small cookie scoop. Chilled truffles work better for dipping.
- Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Scoop chilled dough in generous teaspoon amounts and roll into 1-inch balls. Place on parchment-lined cookie sheet and chill the balls for 30 more minutes.
white CHOCOLATE COATING
- Five minutes before you take the balls out of the refrigerator, melt the chocolate in the microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring each time. Let the chocolate sit for a minute or two to cool slightly before dipping.
- Remove pumpkin pie truffles from the refrigerator and dip them one at a time into the melted chocolate. Use a fork to lift the dipped ball out of the chocolate and use a toothpick (or another fork) to slide the ball off the fork onto the lined baking sheet.
- Place balls back onto the baking sheet after you dip each one. Immediately sprinkle with crushed graham cracker crumbs, sprinkles, candies or cinnamon. Allow chocolate to completely set in the refrigerator before serving.
- Bring truffles to room temperature when serving. They are fine to sit out a few hours for parties, etc., otherwise, store in refrigerator until ready to serve.
Storing Pumpkin Cheesecake Truffles
- Refrigerator: Store any leftover pumpkin cheesecake truffles in an airtight container for up to 4-5 days.
- Freezer: Store any leftover pumpkin cheesecake balls in an airtight container for up to 1 month.
More Variations
- Replace the graham cracker crumbs with gingersnap crumbs, Oreo golden cookie crumbs or whatever you wish!
- Not a white chocolate fan? No worries! Just switch it out with dark chocolate, milk chocolate or top with any excess chocolate to give it a bit of extra chocolate drizzles on top for a fancy look!
- Add a teaspoon orange zest to your pumpkin cream cheese mixture for a delish Christmas vibe!
