Cuisine Afternoon Tea
- 3 oz cream cheese, room temperature
- 3 tbsp confectioner's sugar
- 1/4 cup pumpkin puree
- 2 cups finely crushed Biscoff cookies (about 8.8oz package)
- 1 tsp pumpkin pie spice, divided
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract *Use Tahitian here if you have it, Madagascar also works
- 1 10oz package white chocolate melting wafers *I like Ghiradelli
Prepare Truffle Filling
In a large bowl, beat together cream cheese and sugar with a mixer on medium speed, 1-2 minutes.
Beat in the pumpkin until well combined.
Beat in the cookies, 1/2 tsp pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla extract until well combined, about 2 minutes.
Spray your silicone molds with cooking spray (I use coconut oil spray). Firmly press in 1 tbsp biscoff dough in the square silicone molds. Scrape the tops with the back of a flat silicone spatula to level and make them even.
Freeze until firm, at least 2 hours, or until you're ready to dip them and serve.
Dip Truffles
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Remove frozen truffles carefully from the molds and place on the parchment.
Melt the wafers according to package instructions in a small bowl.
Working in a batches, use a wooden toothpick in each truffle, inserted directly into the center, dip truffles into the melted chocolate, letting excess drip off. Return to the prepared baking sheet.
After all truffles have been dipped, add the remaining pumpkin spice to the melted chocolate. Transfer the spice white chocolate to a piping bag (or ziploc), and cut a small hole. Drizzle the top of the truffles to decorate as desired. Let the chocolate set. Serve, and enjoy!
