Ingredients
Scale
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 4 ounces cream cheese, softened at room temperature
- 1/2 cup canned pumpkin puree
- 1 (14-ounce) can sweetened condensed milk
- 1 1/2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice
- 1/2 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1/3 cup white chocolate chips
- Orange food coloring (optional)
- Granulated sugar (for rolling)
- Chocolate chips (for topping)
Instructions
- Combine the butter, cream cheese, pumpkin, sweetened condensed milk, and pumpkin pie spice in a skillet over medium heat. Stir constantly until thickened and well-combined.
- Stir in the graham crackers and white chocolate chips until melted and smooth. Add food coloring if desired for your pumpkin cream cheese truffles.
- Cook until the mixture releases from the sides and bottom of the pan. If unsure, cook slightly longer for firmer pumpkin cream cheese balls.
- Pour the mixture over a greased baking sheet, spread evenly, and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
- Butter your hands and roll the chilled pumpkin cheesecake dough into small balls to create your cream cheese pumpkin truffles.
- Roll the truffle balls in granulated sugar to coat.
- Use a toothpick to make ridges on the truffles and top with a chocolate chip stem to resemble small pumpkins.
- Serve immediately or refrigerate until ready to serve these easy pumpkin cream cheese truffles.
Notes
- Butter your hands before rolling to prevent sticking when making pumpkin cream cheese truffles.
- Cook the mixture until thickened for best texture in your pumpkin spice cream cheese bites.
- Truffles are best served chilled and can be made a day in advance for stress-free entertaining.
