Fall has always been my favorite season, and my go to autumnal treat is anything made with pumpkin.

From donuts to coffee to cake, I really can’t get enough pumpkin at this time of year!

If you love pumpkin as much as I do, you won’t be able to resist these Mini Chocolate Toffee Pumpkin Pies. They’re the perfect fall dessert, and they’re so simple to make … no baking required!

My husband is not a fan of pumpkin pie. And as much as I love a big slice (or two), I don’t want to eat a whole pie by myself.

So I needed to find a way to get him to enjoy my fave Thanksgiving treat, too.

These Mini Pumpkin Pies have two ingredients that convinced Joel to give these mini pumpkin tarts a try: chocolate and toffee. You’d never guess it, but chocolate pairs really well with pumpkin, and the toffee bits add lots of delicious flavor and some much needed crunch.

Joel loved these pies almost as much as my three-year old niece did … win-win!

How to Make Mini Chocolate Toffee Pumpkin Pies

The best thing about these Mini Chocolate Toffee Pumpkin Pies—apart from the delicious taste, of course—is how easy they are to make.

There is no baking required, the ingredients are simple, and everything comes together fast.

I used premade graham cracker crusts for these bite size pumpkin pies, a cooking hack I will definitely try again.

All you need to do is fill the crusts with your yummy cream cheese-pumpkin filling, drizzle the pies with melted chocolate, add the creamy topping, and sprinkle with toffee bits. So simple!

Serve these Mini Pumpkin Pies for Thanksgiving or as an easy fall treat.

And you may want to double the recipe. It’s almost impossible to stop at one!
