Ingredients

  • 1 Pumpkin Cake or Bread Loaf  premade
  • 6 oz Cream cheese softened
  • 3 cup Powdered sugar
  • 10 oz White chocolate chips
  • Pumpkin pie spice for decoration

Instructions

  • Beat the softened cream cheese and butter on medium speed until smooth.
  • Add powdered sugar and mix on low until combined, then increase to medium speed for 1–2 minutes until fluffy.
  • In a separate bowl, crumble the pumpkin cake and stir in half the frosting.
  • Mix until the texture holds together when pressed. Add more frosting as needed. Chill for 20–30 minutes until firm.
  • Use a tablespoon to scoop and roll into balls. Melt white chocolate in 30-second intervals in the microwave.
  • Dip each ball into the melted white chocolate using a spoon or fork. Set on parchment paper to harden. Sprinkle with pumpkin pie spice to finish.

Notes

Tips + Storage
  • Store in an airtight container in the fridge for 3–5 days. You can also freeze them for up to 6 months.
  • Freezing tip: Flash freeze before packaging to prevent the cake balls from sticking together.
  • Tap off extra chocolate by gently tapping your spoon or fork on the side of the bowl. This helps coat each ball evenly and smoothly.
