Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Hand or stand mixer
  • Spatula
  • Cookie scoop or tablespoon
  • Parchment-lined baking sheet
  • Microwave-safe bowl or double boiler

Ingredients
  

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup pumpkin purée (not pie filling)
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs (or gingersnap crumbs)
  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice (or cinnamon/nutmeg/ginger mix)
  • 12 oz chocolate chips (white, milk, or dark)
  • 1 tsp coconut oil or butter (optional, for melting)
  • Optional toppings: crushed graham crackers, sea salt, cinnamon sugar, or orange drizzle

Instructions
 

  • In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add pumpkin purée, powdered sugar, vanilla, and pumpkin pie spice. Mix until creamy and fully combined.
  • Stir in graham cracker crumbs until mixture thickens to a soft dough. Adjust texture with extra crumbs or purée as needed.
  • Cover bowl and refrigerate for 30–45 minutes until firm enough to roll.
  • Scoop 1 tablespoon portions and roll into balls. Place on parchment-lined sheet. Freeze for 15–20 minutes before coating.
  • Melt chocolate and coconut oil in microwave or double boiler, stirring until smooth.
  • Dip each truffle in melted chocolate using a fork. Let excess drip off and return to parchment. Decorate before chocolate sets.
  • Chill truffles for 20 minutes or until chocolate is fully set.
  • Serve chilled or slightly softened. Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge.

Notes

Use full-fat cream cheese and blot extra moisture from pumpkin purée for best texture. Chill thoroughly before rolling and dipping. Coat with white, milk, or dark chocolate — or roll in crushed cookies for a no-coat option. Great make-ahead gift or party dessert!
