No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake Balls


No Bake Pumpkin Cheesecake Balls

Ingredients
  • 2 1/2 C White Chocolate (either chips or broken into pieces) divided
  • 3/4 C Vanilla Wafer Crumbs (See instructions may double amount)
  • 1/2 C Pumpkin Puree
  • 6 ounces Cream Cheese
  • 1/4 C Powdered Sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp Pumpkin Pie Spice
method

  1. Take 1/2 C of the White Chocolate and melt
  2. While chocolate is melting (careful it burns easy) mix crumbs, puree, cream cheese, sugar and spices - I found it easiest to use a Food Processor but if you need to a hand mixer or blender should work
  3. Add melted white chocolate to already mixed ingredients and blend again - let it go in the processor for a while. It take about 2-3 minutes for everything to combine well for the balls.
  4. TASTE. If you need more sugar add it.
  5. Place mix into a bowl and place in refri
  6. gerator for at least 30 minutes (can be longer but then cover)
  7. NOTE if dough is still "mushy" freeze for 15-30 minutes. You have to work fast and make the balls. I refrigerate the balls again before dipping in chocolate
  8. NOTE 2 if you don't like the consistancy of balls at 3/4 C wafer crumbs add more wafer crumbs up to 1 1/2 C total of crumbs
  9. Place wax paper on a cookie sheet
  10. Take out chilled dough and begin making balls by rolling (about) 1 heaping spoonful at a time
  11. Melt remaining white chocolate
  12. Dip balls into white chocolate and refrigerate to set.
  13. Store in fridge and serve when chilled
