How to Make Pumpkin Oreo Truffles
- Finely crush Oreos – A food processor works best, but you can also use a zip-top bag and rolling pin.
- Mix the Oreos with room temperature cream cheese (this makes mixing smoother and helps the truffle base hold together better) and pumpkin pie spice until smooth.
- Roll the mixture into small balls and freeze them for 20–30 minutes so they hold their shape.
How to Make Pumpkin Shaped Truffles
- After rolling and chilling the Oreo mixture, dip each truffle into melted orange candy melts until completely coated.
- Once the coating has set, use melted green candy to pipe a small stem and leaf on top. You can even add a little curl to look like a pumpkin vine.
- They don’t need to be perfectly shaped — the orange coating and green details are what give them their cute pumpkin look.
Truffles can crack when the centers are very cold and the candy coating is warm. After chilling, let the truffles sit at room temperature for about 5–10 minutes before dipping.

Oreo Pumpkin Truffles Recipe
Ingredients
- 25 Double-Stuffed Golden Oreos
- 4 oz cream cheese softened
- 2 tsp pumpkin pie spice
- 12 oz package orange candy melts
- ¼ cup green candy melts
Instructions
- Line 2 large baking sheets with parchment paper.
- Transfer the golden Oreos to a food processor or use a large ziploc and a rolling pin to crush the Oreos.
- Place in a large bowl.
- Add the pumpkin pie spice and softened cream cheese to the bowl with the crushed Oreos and mix well.
- The truffle filling should come together and ball up.
- Using a cookie scoop to measure out approximately 1 inch size (or one heaping teaspoon) of truffle mixture and roll into a ball.
- Set on the prepared baking sheet.
- Place the entire sheet in the fridge or freezer to chill for about 30 minutes to harden.
- Once chilled, remove from the fridge/freezer and set aside.
- Melt your orange candy melts by transferring to a small microwave-safe bowl.
- Heat for 30 second increments at a time and stir well between.
- Do not overheat as it will scorch the candy melts.
- Using a spoon, dip truffles in the orange candy melts and coat.
- Using the tip of the spoon, scoop the ball out and gently tap the spoon against the bowl to tap off the excess chocolate.
- Gently place on the parchment again and use the tip of the spoon to even out any indents that are left from the spoon.
- Continue with the remaining oreo balls.
- Once all of the truffles have been dipped in the candy coating, melt the green candy melts.
- Transfer the melted green to a piping bag or ziploc bag with a small hole cut in the tip.
- Carefully draw your version of the pumpkin’s stem and leaves on each truffle. Allow to set to harden.
