Squash Recipe ⟶ Pumpkin Chocolate Truffles

These yummy little truffles are rich and addictive. I sprinkle them with powdered sugar but the choices are endless. You can roll them in chopped pumpkin seeds, nuts, coconut, cocoa powder, or dip them in melted chocolate. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator.

Pumpkin Chocolate Truffles
Prep:15m
Ready in:45m
Serving:24 truffles

Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ cups crushed cookies (such as Biscoff®)
  • ½ cup ground almonds, toasted
  • ¼ cup powdered sugar
  • ½ teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
  • ¼ cup pumpkin-flavored coffee liqueur (such as Pumpkin Spice Kahlua®)
  • ½ cup chocolate chips, melted
  • ¼ cup pumpkin puree
  • 1 tablespoon pumpkin syrup (such as Torani®)
  • 24 pumpkin seeds

Cooking Directions

  1. Combine crushed cookies, ground almonds, powdered sugar, and pumpkin spice in a bowl. Mix in coffee liqueur, melted chocolate chips, pumpkin puree, and pumpkin syrup until combined but sticky. Place in freezer until firm, 30 to 50 minutes.
  2. Roll mixture into 1-inch balls. Sprinkle each ball with powdered sugar and top with 1 pumpkin seed.
For a crunchy texture I do not grind the almonds to a fine powder, rather I finely chop them in the food processor.
