Get Into the Spirit of Halloween With These Pumpkin Spice Truffles

Halloween is nearly upon us! And apart from fully embracing our inner spookiness all October long, our second favorite part about Halloween is the treats. Whether it’s homemade or storebought, there are plenty of options for everyone, even if you’re following a plant-based diet. Just check out these 15 Vegan Halloween Candies You Can Buy Online for some of your options — and p.s., Swedish Fish are vegan!

While store-bought treats are enough to satisfy the trick-or-treaters, maybe you want to go the extra mile for yourself and conjure up a batch of vegan Halloween candy all for yourself … and friends and family, too, we guess. If that’s the predicament you’re finding yourself in, then we have just a suggestion for you, courtesy of the Food Monster App. Check it out:

White chocolate coating with a pumpkin and graham cracker cream cheese filling … These vegan truffles are just what any pumpkin lover needs.

Who needs a whole slice of pie — plus a fork and plate — when you can take all of the ingredients of a pumpkin pie and make it into finger food? These Pumpkin Spice Truffles by Melanie Sorrentino are made by combining pumpkin purée, graham crackers, and plenty of pumpkin pie spice, and then coating the frozen balls in dairy-free white chocolate. The perfect fall dessert!
