Ingredients
Scale
- 1 (8 oz) block light cream cheese, softened
- 1/3 cup pumpkin puree
- 10 graham crackers, crushed finely
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- Tiny pinch of salt
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 tbsp coconut oil
- Extra crushed graham crackers for topping
Instructions
- Crush graham crackers in a food processor until fine crumbs form.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine softened cream cheese, pumpkin puree, crushed graham crackers, and powdered sugar. Stir until smooth.
- Add pumpkin pie spice, salt, and vanilla extract. Mix thoroughly to combine.
- Freeze the mixture for 1 hour to firm it up. If too soft, mix in 2 more crushed graham crackers.
- Roll the chilled mixture into about 20 balls and place them on a baking sheet.
- Freeze the rolled balls for another 30 minutes.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate and coconut oil in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth.
- Dip each ball into the melted white chocolate and place on parchment paper.
- Sprinkle with extra crushed graham crackers while chocolate is still wet.
- Chill in the refrigerator until the coating hardens. Store in an airtight container.
Notes
- Use 100% pumpkin puree, not pumpkin pie filling.
- Let cream cheese fully soften to avoid lumps in the mixture.
- Store in the fridge for up to 4 days or freeze for up to 3 months.
- You can use dark or milk chocolate instead of white chocolate.
- Use a cookie scoop for evenly sized balls.
