I have a fabulous pumpkin spice white chocolate mocha recipe to share with you today. This cozy cup is based on the white hot chocolate recipe I shared a couple of weeks ago, and since that one was such a hit, I knew I had to bring out more seasonal favorites. One thing I love about fall is fall coffee drinks. Pumpkin pie lattes, pumpkin spice tea, and of course this pumpkin spice white chocolate mocha. Yum. Let me show you how it comes together and you will understand why it tastes so dreamy. The secret is in the sauce, shhh.
There is just something about that first sip when the air turns crisp. The white chocolate makes it silky and sweet without being heavy, and the pumpkin spice brings warm cinnamon and friends to the party. This is the kind of mug that invites you to slow down for a minute. I like it for a gentle start to the day or as a late afternoon treat when I need a little pick me up. If you drink decaf, it still tastes wonderful, so you can enjoy it in the evening with a blanket and a good show.
Tips for a smooth, creamy mocha
Heat gently. White chocolate can scorch if it gets too hot. Warm things in short bursts and stir well so it melts smooth.
Sweetness is flexible. The white chocolate and pumpkin sauce add plenty of sweetness. Taste before adding anything extra.
Make it your own. Use strong coffee or a shot of espresso if you prefer it bolder. Whole milk is extra creamy, but your favorite milk works.
Serve it pretty. A swirl of whipped topping with a drizzle of pumpkin sauce and a few white chocolate chips makes it feel special.

Ingredients
Method
- Brew the coffee.
- Melt the white chocolate chips in the micro wave for about 30 seconds.
- Pour the coffee into the melted chips and stir.
- Add in the cream, and Torani Pumpkin Pie Sauce then heat a little more if needed.
- Pour into a coffee mug (if you don't already have it in a mug) and top with whipped topping.
- Drizzle with a little Torani Pumpkin Pie Sauce and sprinkle with a couple white chocolate chips.
Serving ideas and simple swaps
This mocha is wonderful as is, but you can dress it up with a dusting of pumpkin pie spice or a pinch of sea salt to bring out the sweetness. If you prefer non-dairy, try your favorite plant milk. Oat milk is rich and creamy, while almond milk keeps it lighter. For a party or brunch, set out a little toppings bar with whipped topping, chocolate chips, and cinnamon so everyone can add their own finishing touch.
Make it for a crowd
If you have guests coming over, you can double or triple the recipe and warm it slowly in a saucepan on low. Keep it just below a simmer and stir now and then so the white chocolate stays smooth. You can also prepare the coffee and warm the sauce ahead of time, then assemble and top just before serving.
This pumpkin spice white chocolate mocha recipe is so super easy it is not even funny. It only takes a few minutes to make right in your own kitchen. If you have guests over you can double or even triple the recipe easily and put it in a mixing bowl to microwave, or in a saucepan over the stove to heat on low.
I have to say it’s delicious in the pumpkin spiced white mocha recipe! This is definitely my favorite fall treat right now!
