Cream Cheese Pumpkin Puffs

These bite-size puffs of pumpkin goodness have got a lot going for them, but pie-construction is not one of them. These could either be a quick appetizer or the easiest dessert ever!

Cream Cheese Pumpkin Puffs

Ingredients

24 servings

Instructions

  1. Bake the pastry cups according to package directions. I followed the egg wash instructions, but you can totally skip that step.
  2. Poke a hole in the center of each puff with the end of a wooden spoon and let cool.
  3. Meanwhile, in large bowl or stand mixer beat together the cream cheese, pumpkin, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, cloves, salt, and powdered sugar.
  4. Spoon the mixture into the cooled cups. Or you can pipe them in: I like to place a ziplock in a cup and spoon the filling into the cup. Then snip a corner and pipe (see photo).
  5. Garnish with a pecan half, toasted if you have time.
  6. These taste really good with cinnamon-sugar sprinkled on top!
