Ingredients

  • 8 graham crackers (large rectangles)
  • ½ cup pumpkin puree
  • cup granulated sugar
  • ½ tsp cinnamon
  • 1 ¼ cups dark chocolate chips (if dairy free, look for dairy free chocolate chips)

Instructions

  • Break up graham crackers into pieces and add them to a food processor bowl. Pulse a few times until it forms a fine crumb.
  • In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs with the pumpkin puree, sugar, and cinnamon in a bowl. Mix until well combined.
  • Roll the pumpkin mixture into balls and place on a parchment-lined plate or baking sheet in the freezer for about 30 minutes. This will help them firm up.
  • Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave, using 30-second intervals and stirring thoroughly between each interval.
  • Roll each pumpkin truffle in the melted chocolate, using a spoon to roll them and fully coat them in chocolate. Use the spoon to remove each from the melted chocolate and return to the parchment-lined plate or baking sheet.
  • Place in the refrigerator for about 15-20 minutes, or until the chocolate hardens. Enjoy now, or place truffles in an airtight container and store in the fridge for up to 4-5 days.

Notes

  • If you prefer, you refrigerate the filling balls (rather than freeze) for several hours, then return to them later that day to coat in the chocolate.
