Leftover pie is a pain in the butt to have around. Literally, there’s a good chance it’ll end up on your rear end if temptation strikes. That’s why tossing together bite-sized portions of pumpkin pie is such a healthy holiday idea. Dipped in dark chocolate, these moist Pumpkin Pie Truffles won’t last long enough to throw you off track.
