Description

Celebrate autumn with these Pumpkin Pie Cheesecake Balls! A no-bake treat combining creamy cheesecake, spiced pumpkin, and a crunchy coating, these bite-sized delights are perfect for fall gatherings or festive indulgences.


Ingredients

For the Filling:

  • 2 cups white chocolate chips
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/3 cup powdered sugar
  • 2/3 cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1 1/2 cups gingersnap crumbs

For the Coating:

  • 12 oz white almond bark
  • 1 cup orange candy melts (optional, for drizzle)

Instructions

Prepare the Filling:

  1. Melt the White Chocolate: Place the white chocolate chips in a heat-safe bowl. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring each time, until smooth. Set aside to cool slightly.
  2. Mix the Cream Cheese and Sugar: In a large mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese and powdered sugar for 1-2 minutes until smooth and creamy.
  3. Incorporate Pumpkin and Spices: Add the pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice, then beat for another minute until well combined.
  4. Add the Crumbs: Mix in the graham cracker and gingersnap crumbs until evenly combined.
  5. Stir in Melted Chocolate: Gently fold the melted white chocolate into the mixture until fully incorporated.
  6. Chill the Mixture: Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and chill for 2 hours and 15 minutes to firm up.

2. Shape the Cheesecake Balls:

  1. Scoop and Roll: Using a tablespoon, scoop out portions of the chilled mixture. Roll each portion into a ball and place on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
  2. Refrigerate: Chill the rolled balls in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to set.

3. Coat the Cheesecake Balls:

  1. Melt the Almond Bark: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white almond bark in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  2. Dip Each Ball: Using a fork or skewer, dip each chilled ball into the melted almond bark, ensuring it’s fully coated. Tap off any excess coating and place the ball back onto the parchment-lined baking sheet.
  3. Optional Drizzle: Melt the orange candy melts and drizzle over the coated balls for a festive touch. Use a piping bag or spoon for precision.
  4. Let Them Set: Allow the coating to harden completely before serving.
