I found this recipe on Pinterest<\/a> and had to share for our Thanksgiving featured recipe! I used Whole Food’s recipe, but you can try Erin’s Food Blog<\/a> for a slightly different version (she uses almond bark instead of white chocolate).<\/p>\n

Since presentation is half the taste, you will want to make sure you have a nice tray to serve them with. I suggest a tiered ceramic tray or a clear glass tray like the one in Erin’s Food Blog.<\/p>\n

Whole Foods Recipe<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Ingredients:<\/strong>
\n2 1\/2 white chocolate chunks
\n1\/3 cup gingersnap cookie crumbs, plus more for garnish
\n1\/4 cup canned pumpkin puree
\n1\/4 cup graham cracker crumbs, plus more for garnish
\n1 tablespoon confectioners’ sugar
\n1\/2 teaspoon orange zest
\n1\/8 teaspoon ground cinnamon
\npinch of fine salt
\n2 ounces cream cheese, softened<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Method:<\/strong>
\nMelt 1\/2 cup of the chocolate in a double boiler over medium-low heat or in the microwave for about 1 minute. Stir often to keep the chocolate from burning. Transfer to a large bowl. Add gingersnap crumbs, pumpkin, graham cracker crumbs, sugar, zest, cinnamon, salt and cream cheese and beat with an electric mixer until smooth. Transfer to a shallow bowl, cover and chill until just solid enough to roll into balls, about 2 hours.<\/p>\n

Line a large sheet tray with parchment paper. Melt remaining 2 cups chocolate and transfer to a small, deep bowl. Roll 1 heaping teaspoon of the pumpkin mixture into a ball in your hands, then drop into the chocolate. Working quickly, gently spoon chocolate over to coat. Using a small spoon or fork, lift the truffle out of the chocolate, shake off excess and transfer to prepared sheet tray. Dollop a bit of extra chocolate on any parts that remain exposed, then sprinkle a few gingersnap or graham cracker crumbs over the top, if you like. Repeat process with remaining pumpkin mixture and chocolate, then chill truffles until chocolate is completely set, about 1 hour.<\/p>\n
