Instructions

Combine softened cream cheese and powdered sugar in a mixing bowl and beat until smooth.
Mix in pumpkin puree and cinnamon until fully combined.
Incorporate graham cracker crumbs, pumpkin pie spice, and cinnamon into the mixture until thick and smooth.
Transfer the dough to a bowl, cover, and refrigerate for about 2 hours.
Prepare a baking sheet with parchment paper.
Scoop a tablespoon of dough and roll it into a ball, placing it on the baking sheet; repeat with remaining dough, spacing truffles 2 inches apart.
Chill truffles for 20-25 minutes before chocolate dipping.
Melt white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in short intervals, stirring in between.
Take a truffle, dip it into the melted chocolate using a fork, and ensure it's fully coated before scraping off excess chocolate.
Place dipped truffles back on the parchment-lined baking sheet using another fork.
Sprinkle English toffee bits or graham cracker crumbs on top immediately.
Let the truffles set in the refrigerator before serving; they can be kept at room temperature for a few hours.

Notes

For best texture, ensure cream cheese is softened completely before mixing.
Feel free to customize the topping based on preference—many enjoy crushed nuts or different sprinkles!
Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
