Instructions

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Apple Pie Truffles

  • In a medium saucepan, combine the chopped apples with brown sugar, lemon juice, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Cook over medium heat for about 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the apples soften and become fragrant. Once cooked, remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mixture cool completely.
  • In a large mixing bowl, combine the cooled apple filling with graham cracker crumbs and softened cream cheese. Use a spatula or your hands to thoroughly mix until everything is well combined and the mixture becomes moldable.
  • Take small portions of the apple mixture and roll them into bite-sized balls, about 1 inch in diameter. Place the formed truffles onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
  • Refrigerate the baking sheet with the truffles for at least 30 minutes to allow them to firm up.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the chocolate chips in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth and fully melted.
  • Using a fork, dip each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate, ensuring it’s completely coated. Allow excess chocolate to drip off.
  • Once all the truffles are coated, leave them on the parchment paper to set for about 15-20 minutes until the chocolate hardens completely.

Notes

Ensure apples are cooked just until tender for optimal texture. Experiment with spices for added flavor. Store in an airtight container for freshness.
