Ingredients
  

For the Truffle Base
  • 8 oz Cream Cheese Use vegan cream cheese for a dairy-free version.
  • 1 cup Canned Pumpkin Puree Ensure it’s pure pumpkin and not pumpkin pie filling.
  • 1 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs Use gluten-free graham crackers for a gluten-free option.
  • 1 cup White Chocolate Chips Consider using dark chocolate for a richer flavor.
  • 1/2 cup Sweetened Condensed Milk Coconut condensed milk works as a dairy alternative.
  • 1 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice Homemade blend of cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger if needed.
For Decoration
  • 1 tbsp Food Coloring (optional) Gel colors are preferred for a more intense hue.
  • 1/4 cup Granulated Sugar
  • 1/4 cup Chocolate Chips (for stems)

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a skillet over medium-low heat, combine the cream cheese, canned pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, pumpkin pie spice, and a pinch of salt. Stir constantly for about 3-5 minutes until smooth and thickened.
  2. Remove from heat and stir in the white chocolate chips and graham cracker crumbs until well incorporated and the mixture pulls away from the skillet sides, about 2-3 minutes.
  3. Transfer the mixture onto a buttered baking sheet and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours until firm.
  4. Roll the chilled dough into 1-inch balls using greased hands, dusting with powdered sugar if necessary.
  5. Roll each truffle in granulated sugar, create grooves with a toothpick, and place a chocolate chip on top as the stem.
  6. Serve immediately or store in the fridge until ready to enjoy.
