How to Make Pumpkin Cheesecake Truffles

  • In a skillet over medium heat, melt the butter until it’s bubbly and fragrant.
  • Stir in the softened cream cheese, canned pumpkin puree, sweetened condensed milk, and pumpkin pie spice. Mix until thickened, around 5-7 minutes.
  • Gently fold in the graham cracker crumbs and white chocolate chips until you achieve a smooth texture.
  • Transfer the mixture to a greased baking sheet and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • With buttered hands, scoop out the chilled mixture and roll it into golf-ball sized balls.
  • Roll each truffle in granulated sugar for sparkle and use a toothpick to create ridges, then place a chocolate chip on top.
  • Enjoy chilled or store in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
