Soft, rich, low-carb chocolate pumpkin cake pops dipped in smooth sugar-free white chocolate. A fun and easy Halloween treat that tastes sweet without the sugar. Great for parties, kids, or a guilt-free dessert at home.
Cake:
1 cup almond flour
1/4 cup unsweetened cocoa powder
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 tsp cinnamon
1/4 tsp nutmeg (optional)
3 large eggs
1/2 cup pumpkin puree
1/3 cup keto sweetener (erythritol, monk fruit, or allulose)
1/3 cup butter, melted
1 tsp vanilla extract
Coating:
1 cup sugar-free white chocolate chips
1 tsp coconut oil
Optional Decorations:
Sugar-free sprinkles
Melted dark chocolate (for drizzling)
Unsweetened shredded coconut
Crushed keto cookies
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8 pan with parchment or grease it.
In a medium bowl, mix almond flour, cocoa powder, baking powder, salt, cinnamon, and nutmeg.
In a larger bowl, whisk eggs, pumpkin puree, sweetener, butter, and vanilla.
Add dry ingredients to wet. Stir just until mixed.
Pour into pan. Bake 20–25 minutes. Toothpick should come out mostly clean. Cool completely.
Crumble the cooled cake into fine crumbs.
Roll into 1 to 1.5 inch balls. If crumbly, add a little softened butter or cream cheese.
Chill cake balls for 30 minutes.
Melt white chocolate chips with coconut oil in microwave, 30 seconds at a time. Stir until smooth.
Stick each cake pop with a stick (optional). Dip each ball in chocolate. Tap off extra.
Add decorations before chocolate hardens.
Let set in fridge or at room temp. Store in an airtight container.
Don’t skip chilling the cake balls—it keeps them from falling apart.
A spoon or fork helps coat them evenly if dipping is tricky.
You can skip sticks and just call them truffles. Still delicious.
Adjust sweetness to taste before baking.
Use orange food coloring or turmeric to tint the chocolate if you want Halloween colors.
