Ingredients
  

For the Creamy Base
  • 8 ounces cream cheese Use low-fat cream cheese for a lighter version.
  • 1 cup pumpkin puree Canned pumpkin puree works well for convenience.
  • 1 cup powdered sugar Granulated sugar can be used, but may result in a grainy texture.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract Use pure vanilla extract for the best results.
  • 2 teaspoons pumpkin pie spice Can substitute with a mix of cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger if unavailable.
For the Coating
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs For gluten-free, use gluten-free graham crackers.

Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Electric Mixer
  • Cookie scoop
  • baking sheet
  • Shallow Dish

Method
 

Step‑by‑Step Instructions
  1. In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until it is smooth and creamy, about 2 minutes. Then, add in the pumpkin puree, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and pumpkin pie spice. Mix everything together until fully combined and silky, ensuring there are no lumps visible in the mixture.
  2. Once mixed, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour. This chilling step is crucial, as it helps the mixture firm up.
  3. After chilling, remove the bowl from the refrigerator and take a small cookie scoop or tablespoon. Spoon out the mixture and form it into 1-inch balls. Arrange the balls on a lined baking sheet.
  4. In a shallow dish, place the graham cracker crumbs. Roll each formed ball in the crumbs, ensuring they are completely coated.
  5. Transfer the coated balls back onto the lined baking sheet and place it in the refrigerator for at least 30 more minutes.
  6. Once chilled, your no bake pumpkin cheesecake balls are ready to be served! Remove them from the refrigerator and plate them.
