Ingredients
  

For the pumpkin pie truffles

  • 1 pack Golden Oreos ~36 cookies
  • 8 ounces cream cheese (softened)
  • ¼ cup pumpkin puree
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice

For the white chocolate coating

  • 2 cups white chocolate chips
  • food coloring (optional)

Instructions
 

To make the pumpkin pie truffles

  • Use a food processor to finely crush 36 Golden Oreos.
  • Pour the crushed Oreos into a medium-large bowl, then add softened cream cheese. Use a fork or your fingers to mix them to together until well-combined.
  • Add pumpkin puree and pumpkin pie spice. Mix until combined.
  • Cover the bowl and place it in the fridge for 30-40 minutes to allow the mixture to firm up.
  • Remove the mixture from the fridge and roll it into 1.5-inch balls. Place the balled truffles on a plate and place them in the freezer to set while you heat the coating chocolate. Allow them to freeze for at least 10-20 minutes.

To coat the truffles

  • Line a cookie sheet with wax or parchment paper or aluminum foil.
  • Melt the white chocolate in the microwave, stirring every 30-45 seconds, or using a double boiler.
  • **If you would like to decorate them like a pumpkin, remove ~¼ cup of melted chocolate and place it in a separate bowl. Add orange food coloring to the larger portion of melted chocolate and green food coloring to the reserved portion.
  • Remove the truffles from the freezer and use a spoon or a candy dipping spoon to fully coat them in (*orange-colored) chocolate.
  • Place the coated truffles on to the prepared cookie sheet and put them in the fridge to set for a few minutes.
  • Add the green-colored melted chocolate to a piping or ziploc bag and cut a very small tip.
  • Remove the truffles from the fridge and add a green tip on top of the truffle to resemble the pumpkin stem, with swirls to resemble vines (if desired).
  • Place the truffles back in the fridge to fully set, then place them in a sealed container. Store them in the fridge.
