Ingredients
Scale
-
- For the Pumpkin Cheesecake Filling:
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
- 1/4 teaspoon cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- For Coating:
- 12 oz white chocolate or semisweet chocolate, melted
- Extra graham crumbs or festive sprinkles (optional)
Instructions
- In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth.
- Add pumpkin puree, powdered sugar, vanilla, pumpkin pie spice, cinnamon, and salt. Mix until fully combined.
- Stir in graham cracker crumbs until the mixture thickens and becomes scoopable.
- Refrigerate for 20–30 minutes until firm enough to roll.
- Roll the mixture into 1-inch balls and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
- Freeze for 15 minutes to help them hold their shape.
- Dip each chilled ball into melted chocolate, letting excess drip off.
- Place back on the baking sheet and top with graham crumbs or sprinkles if desired.
- Refrigerate until the chocolate is set.
- Serve chilled—these taste just like creamy pumpkin cheesecake bites!
Notes
For a firmer texture, add extra graham crumbs. White chocolate pairs best with the pumpkin flavor, but dark or milk chocolate work too. Store Pumpkin Cheesecake Balls in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days or freeze for up to 2 months.
