Step-by-Step Instructions for Pumpkin Cheesecake Truffles
  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup of canned pumpkin, 8 ounces of cream cheese, ¼ cup of unsalted butter, 1 tablespoon pumpkin spice, and 14 ounces of sweetened condensed milk. Heat over medium-low, stirring constantly for about 5-7 minutes until the mixture is smooth and slightly thickened.
  2. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in 1 cup of white chocolate chips and 1 cup of graham cracker crumbs. Mix well until combined.
  3. Transfer the mixture to a buttered baking sheet, spreading it into an even layer. Allow it to cool for about 10 minutes at room temperature, then refrigerate for about 2 hours.
  4. Once the mixture is chilled, use a spoon or a small cookie scoop to portion out small amounts and roll each portion into a ball.
  5. In a shallow dish, roll each truffle gently in granulated sugar to create a sparkling exterior.
  6. Using a toothpick, create little pumpkin designs on each truffle. Optionally, place a mini chocolate chip on top as a stem.
  7. Enjoy immediately or refrigerate in an airtight container, where they will last for up to a week.
