Be prepared to have your life change in just one little bite. Here is my recipe for Pumpkin truffles. I tried this recipe a few years ago when I was looking for an easy dessert option to bring to a family get together.
I am not a good baker. So I had to be sure it was something easy that I couldn’t mess up.
This recipe is not only good but is so easy anyone can do it. Trust me, if I can do it, you can do it!
These pumpkin truffles are so good you might not even want to share them. I highly recommend making a double batch for this specific reason.
