Rich, velvety pumpkin cheesecake balls infused with warm fall spices, perfect for holiday parties or indulgent snacks.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 tsp ground cloves
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs
  • Optional: Chocolate chips or melted chocolate for drizzling

Instructions

  1. Set out the cream cheese to soften at room temperature for about 30 minutes.
  2. In a medium mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy. Add the pumpkin puree and mix until fully combined.
  3. Gradually add the powdered sugar, about 1/4 cup at a time, mixing until smooth after each addition. Then, mix in the vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and cloves until the mixture is well-blended.
  4. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until the mixture is firm enough to handle.
  5. Once the mixture is firm, use a cookie scoop or tablespoon to scoop portions of the mixture. Roll each portion into a ball using your hands.
  6. Roll each ball in the graham cracker crumbs until fully coated. For extra crunch, you can double-coat them.
  7. Optional: Drizzle melted chocolate over the balls or dip them halfway into melted chocolate.
  8. Place the coated balls on a tray lined with wax paper or parchment paper. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour before serving.

Notes

[‘Ensure cream cheese is softened to avoid lumps.’, ‘Chill the mixture thoroughly before rolling into balls.’, ‘Use fresh spices for the best flavor.’, ‘Experiment with different coatings like crushed nuts or sprinkles.’]
