Ingredients
  

  • 8 ounces 225g cream cheese, softened​
  • 1 cup 240g canned pumpkin puree​
  • 1 cup 120g powdered sugar​
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice​
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract​
  • 2 cups 240g graham cracker crumbs​
  • 12 ounces 340g white chocolate, melted​
  • Optional: Additional graham cracker crumbs or crushed nuts for coating

Instructions
 

Prepare the Mixture:

  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the softened cream cheese and pumpkin puree until smooth.​
  • Add the powdered sugar, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract. Mix until all ingredients are well incorporated.​
  • Gradually fold in the graham cracker crumbs until the mixture reaches a consistency that holds its shape when rolled.​

Chill the Mixture:

  • Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 1 hour to firm up the mixture, making it easier to handle.​

Form the Balls:

  • Once chilled, use a tablespoon or small cookie scoop to portion out the mixture.​
  • Roll each portion between your palms to form smooth, round balls.​
  • Place the formed balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.​

Coat with Chocolate:

  • Melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.​
  • Using a fork or dipping tool, dip each ball into the melted chocolate, ensuring it's fully coated.​
  • Allow any excess chocolate to drip off before placing the coated ball back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.​

Add Optional Coating:

  • While the chocolate is still wet, you can sprinkle additional graham cracker crumbs or crushed nuts on top for added texture and flavor.​

Set the Coating:

  • Refrigerate the coated balls for at least 30 minutes, or until the chocolate has fully set.​

Serve:

  • Once set, the Pumpkin Cheesecake Balls are ready to be enjoyed.​
  • Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
