Ingredients
1 cup white chocolate chips
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1 cup graham cracker crumbs
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
8 ounces white chocolate, melted (for coating)
Optional: extra graham cracker crumbs or cinnamon for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the Filling: In a medium bowl, combine the white chocolate chips and pumpkin puree. Microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until melted and smooth. Stir in graham cracker crumbs, powdered sugar, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger. If the mixture is too soft, refrigerate for 15-20 minutes.
- Form the Truffles: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Scoop tablespoon-sized portions of the pumpkin mixture and roll into balls. Place on the baking sheet and freeze for about 30 minutes until firm.
- Coat with White Chocolate: Melt the 8 ounces of white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 20 seconds until smooth. Dip each pumpkin ball into the melted white chocolate using a fork, letting excess chocolate drip off before placing back on parchment paper. Garnish with extra graham cracker crumbs or cinnamon if desired.
- Set and Serve: Allow the truffles to set at room temperature or refrigerate until the chocolate coating is firm. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Notes
Ensure the pumpkin mixture is firm enough to hold its shape before dipping.
Work quickly with the white chocolate to prevent the pumpkin balls from softening.
For extra decoration, drizzle additional melted white chocolate over the truffles.
