Pumpkin Cookie Dough Chocolate Truffles are luscious little bites of sweet pumpkin cookie dough with chocolate chips and covered in creamy melted chocolate!  Pure heaven!

Pumpkin Cookie Dough Chocolate Truffles

As you may have noticed, I LOVE pumpkin!  Maybe it was the Pumpkin Praline Bread Pudding or the Pumpkin Tres Leches Cake that gave it away. It could also have been the Cinnamon Swirl Pumpkin Coffee Cake or the savory Pumpkin Chipotle Vegetarian Chili that gave it away.

However, based on the popularity of these pumpkin recipes, I’m not the only one that loves pumpkin. Most of you do too!  Yay!  Welcome my fellow pumpkin peeps!!

Pumpkin Cookie Dough Chocolate Truffles

I love these little Pumpkin Cookie Dough Chocolate Truffles because you can eat them without too much guilt. Why? Because there are no eggs to worry about. Why is that important? Because these little sweet treats are not baked.  So you can have your Pumpkin Cookie Dough Truffles and eat them too.

Pumpkin Cookie Dough Chocolate Truffles

No eggs…No baking….No worries. Just pumpkin and chocolate, and happy faces all around.

OK my Pumpkin peeps. It is now your turn!  For which occasion will you make these yummy Pumpkin Cookie Dough Chocolate Truffles.

    Oh these little bites are the perfect pumpkin sweet treat! It looks like dark chocolate too, which I’m preferring more and more! Love this recipe, Michele!

    I’m definitely not as big a fan of pumpkin as most folks, but I have to say I need to try some pumpkin and chocolate together! Adding chocolate like you did here could get me to hop on board the pumpkin train!

    These look fantastic!! I’m glad to hear there’s no egg in the cookie dough…I always worry a little bit about that with regular cookie dough (not that that keeps me from sampling it!). What a lovely fall-time treat 🙂

    I was wondering if these would work without shortening. and if not if there is any substitute? thanks!

      Yes. You could substitute butter instead.
