¼ cup of pumpkin pureé
3 tablespoons of powdered sugar

How to make these mummy truffles

These truffles are easy to make and lots of fun to decorate!

Prep steps

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Set it aside.
Place the ginger snap cookies in a Ziploc bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
You can also use a food processor if you wish.

Making the pumpkin cheesecake mixture

Place all of the truffle ingredients into the bowl of a stand mixer.
Mix until the batter is smooth.
Cover the dough and chill in the fridge for one hour.

Forming the truffle balls

Use a small cookie scoop to portion out the batter.
Roll the mixture into 18 balls.
Place a toothpick into each ball to help with dipping.
Place the balls in the freezer to allow them to set for about ½ hour.

Melt the white chocolate

Melt the white chocolate chips and 1 teaspoon of coconut oil in a microwave-safe bowl.
Heat it in 20-second increments until the white chocolate is smooth.

Decorating the mummy truffles

Use toothpicks to dip each ball into the white chocolate, taking care to make sure all sides are coated.
Gently shake off any excess chocolate. I used a small candy dipping ladle.
Place the truffle balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
Chill them for 3-5 minutes until the white chocolate hardens.
Carefully remove the toothpicks.

Finishing the Halloween mummy dessert

Place the remaining melted white chocolate into an icing bag.
Drizzle the white chocolate over the truffles, taking care to cover the holes left by the toothpicks.
Place two edible candy eyes on each truffle ball while the chocolate is still soft.
Store the mummy truffles in the fridge in an airtight container.

I LOVE the way they look on the display plate – almost like flowing mummy robes!

And look at those adorable little faces! Too darn cute!

Serving the mummy truffles

The mummy pumpkin truffles have a nice savory-sweet center with a crunchy white chocolate coating that gives them a rich finish. They are no-bake, kid-friendly, and perfect for the holidays.

The savory filling adds a nice center taste, and the outside coating is fairly thin, so the sweetness is nice but not super sweet.

These cute mummy truffles will be the star attraction on your dessert table at your Halloween party!
