The classic Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Truffle just got a touch of Pumpkin! These delicious truffles are full of fall spices and dipped in rich chocolate.
Ingredients
- ⅓ cup canned pumpkin
- ¼ cup unsalted butter, softened
- ½ cup light brown sugar, packed
- ½ cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- pinch of kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon ground cloves
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ⅓ cup mini semi-sweet morsels
- 12oz Ghirardelli chocolate wafers, melted
- sprinkles, optional
Instructions
- In a large mixing bowl, beat together the pumpkin, butter, and sugars until fully combined.
- Add flour, vanilla, and seasonings. Beat until well blended. Fold in mini morsels.
- Refrigerate cookie dough for about an hour, until it begins to firm up a little.
- Scoop by tablespoon onto a parchment paper lined freezer safe baking sheet. Freeze for 2 hours, or overnight.
- Using a toothpick, dip each frozen truffle into the melted Ghirardelli chocolate. Tap gently on side of bowl and place on parchment paper. Add sprinkles, if desired, immediately. Repeat until all truffles have been dipped. Store in refrigerator until ready to serve.
- Keep in airtight container for up to 7 days. ENJOY.
Notes
- All purpose flour. For food safety, make sure to heat treat the flour first!
- Use a metal scoop like this one to ensure all the truffles are as evenly shaped as possible.
- Store the truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They stay good for about 7 days but we can never resist eating them all before then!
- After dipping the truffles, allow the excess chocolate to drip off into the bowl. Removing excess prevents mess on your parchment paper and makes the bottom of the truffles smoother.
