Ingredients
• 8 oz cream cheese, softened (or dairy-free alternative)
• ½ cup canned pumpkin puree (unsweetened)
• ¼ cup powdered sugar
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice (or ½ tsp cinnamon + pinch each nutmeg, ginger, cloves)
• 1 cup graham cracker crumbs (or gluten-free cookies)
• Optional: ½ cup chopped pecans or walnuts (for coating)
Instructions
- In a bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Mix in pumpkin, powdered sugar, vanilla, and pumpkin pie spice until fully blended.
- Roll mixture into 1-inch balls (use slightly damp hands if sticky).
- Roll each ball in graham cracker crumbs (and nuts if using) until fully coated.
- Place on a tray and chill at least 30 minutes to firm up.
- Serve cold—they’re perfect for snacking, dessert trays, or holiday parties!
✨ Great with:
• A drizzle of caramel or chocolate sauce
• As a make-ahead treat (stores well in the fridge!)
💡 Make ahead: Store in an airtight container in the fridge up to 5 days or freeze for longer. Thaw before serving.
