How to Make Pumpkin Spice Truffles

In the bowl of a stand mixer, beat together cream cheese and powdered sugar until light and fluffy. Add pumpkin puree and mix again. Add in graham cracker crumbs, pumpkin pie spice, and 4 oz. melted white chocolate and beat until mixture resembles a soft dough, about 2-3 minutes.

Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge for at least 1 hour. Pinch off a tablespoon-sized piece of truffle mixture and roll it into a ball. Place balls on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet and chill again for at least 30 minutes.

Dip truffles in 10 oz. melted white chocolate and let any excess chocolate drip off before returning them to the baking sheet. Sprinkle graham cracker crumbs over the truffles and let the chocolate set before serving.
