Indulgent White Chocolate Pumpkin Butter Cups – melted white chocolate chips filled with a mix of pumpkin puree and almond butter. An easy homemade fall dessert that’s so much better than Reese’s!
To be honest, I was not expecting these to be that good; I only tried them out for pretty pictures.
But man were they good!?
The nutty, spiced pumpkin and creamy, milky white chocolate was just such a good combination!
What I’m really bummed about right now is the fact that I burned half my white chocolate while melting it in the microwave. Turns out it’s a lot more sensitive to heat than milk or dark.
So I basically ended up with crunchy white chocolate “crisps”.
No complaints though. I ate all of that too haha.
