These super easy pumpkin cake balls are a perfect bite sized treat for thanksgiving and fall celebrations. With only 6 ingredients they are ready in 20 minutes.
Combine softened 6 oz of cream cheese and ⅓ cup of butter in a mixing bowl on medium speed until well combined.
Add in 3 cups of powdered sugar and combine on low until combined.
Then, turn speed up to medium for 1 - 2 minutes and mix until fluffy and smooth.
In another bowl, crumble pumpkin cake/loaf and add in half the frosting.
Mix frosting and crumbled cake together, adding frosting as needed until you can press the mixture into balls.
Chill the mixture for 20 - 30 minutes or until firm.
Once chilled, scoop mix up with a tablespoon and roll into balls.
Melt 10 oz of white chocolate chips at 30 second intervals in the microwave until smooth.
Use a spoon or fork to dip each cake ball into the melted white chocolate scraping off any excess.
Allow them to harden and dry on sheet of parchment paper.
Once hardened, sprinkle with pumpkin pie spice.
