To create these delectable pumpkin truffles, you will need a few key ingredients to bring out the rich flavors of fall.
Ingredients-
● 14 oz can of sweetened condensed milk
● 1/4 cup of pumpkin puree
● 1 tbsp of unsalted butter
● 1 tsp cinnamo
● 1 cup of sugar
● 9 semi sweet chocolate chips
1. In a medium sized saucepan add the sweetened condensed milk, pumpkin puree, butter and cinnamon. Cook over a medium heat and stir constantly. The mixture needs to come to a low boil and cook. Don’t stop mixing.
2. Cook until it starts to get thick, about 5-7 more minutes. You should be able to run a silicone spoon on the bottom of the pan and the mixture separates and forms back together after a few seconds. Once it starts taking about 5-8 seconds to come together, turn off the heat and put the mixture on the plate or in a large bowl. Let it cool a bit and then place in the fridge for 1 hour.
3. Pour the sugar into a bowl and set aside, line a tray with parchment paper and set aside and grab a toothpick. Butter your hands up or use spray oil, grab about 2 tbsp worth of the mixture and roll into a ball, dip and roll in the sugar and place on the tray, repeat until you have no more mixture left.
4. Once all the balls are rolled and dipped into sugar take the toothpick and place your thumb slightly on the top of the ball, take the toothpick and slightly push the side of it into the ball to make the lines like a pumpkin, repeat all around the ball and to the other ones. It’s okay if your thumb slightly makes a dent in the top of the pumpkin, it needs it.
5. Once all the lines are added take a chocolate chip and place it on the top middle of the pumpkin and slightly push down just a tiny bit. Serve and enjoy!
Tips and tricks!
● Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-4 days.
● If you stop mixing while the mixture is cooking it will stick to the pan and won’t work.
● You can make these smaller to make more balls and use mini chocolate chips.
● The cinnamon gives it the perfect taste but you can substitute it for pumpkin pie spice.
● Make sure you dip them in sugar before pressing the lines in.
When it comes to serving pumpkin truffles, presentation is key in elevating your sweet treat to the next level. One fun idea is to arrange them on a bed of crushed graham crackers or cinnamon sugar for a touch of fall flair. You can also sprinkle some finely chopped nuts or toasted coconut on top for added texture and flavor.
For a more elegant presentation, consider placing each truffle in mini cupcake liners and arranging them on a tiered dessert stand. This not only makes them look visually appealing but also adds a touch of sophistication to your table setting.
Another creative way to serve pumpkin truffles is by skewering them with small pretzel sticks or lollipop sticks for easy bite-sized indulgence. This allows guests to enjoy these delightful treats without getting their hands sticky.
Don't forget to garnish with a dusting of cocoa powder or powdered sugar before serving for that final decorative touch. Remember, presentation matters just as much as taste when it comes to making your pumpkin truffles stand out at any gathering!
