These impressive white chocolate pumpkin spice truffles come together with no baking and just 6 ingredients, and are the perfect treat to celebrate the season.

INGREDIENTS

  • 3 ounces cream cheese, softened
  • ½ cup pumpkin puree
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 (12-ounce) package gingersnap cookies, crushed (about 2 ¼ cups)
  • 12 ounces white chocolate chips or candy melts

Optional Ingredients

  • sprinkles, for garnish
  • more crushed cookies, for garnish

NOTES

  • You could use graham cracker crums instead if gingersnap cookies.
  • You could use Semi-Sweet or Dark Chocolate instead of the White Chocolate.

DIRECTIONS

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Set aside.
  2. Beat together the cream cheese, pumpkin puree, powdered sugar, and pumpkin pie spice until combined and smooth.
  3. Add in the crushed cookies and beat until the mixture forms a wet dough. Refrigerate for at least 15 minutes.
  4. Use a small cookie scoop to scoop out balls of dough onto the prepared cookie sheet.
  5. Use your hands to roll the dough into round balls. Freeze for about 10 minutes.
  6. Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave in 20-second increments, stirring in between, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted.
  7. Dip the truffles in the melted chocolate, let the excess chocolate drip off, and then place them back on the baking sheet.
  8. Add sprinkles or cookie crumbs to decorate if desired. Let the chocolate set, then serve.
