Step-by-Step Instructions

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth. Alternatively, use a double boiler for a gentler melting process.
2. Add Butter and Creamer
Stir in the salted butter and pumpkin pie spice creamer until fully combined and smooth.
3. Enhance with Flavor
Mix in the vanilla extract and pumpkin pie spice for extra warmth and richness.
4. Chill the Mixture
Transfer the mixture to the refrigerator and let it chill for at least 2 hours, or until firm enough to scoop.
5. Shape the Truffles
Use a small cookie scoop or melon baller to scoop out portions of the truffle mixture. Roll them into balls between your palms.
6. Coat the Truffles
Roll each truffle in your choice of coating—sprinkles, cocoa powder, crushed nuts, or even melted chocolate for a smooth outer shell.
7. Chill and Serve
Place the coated truffles on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate until firm. Serve chilled and enjoy!
