Thinking they are Pecan Truffles but, wanted to see if someone more familiar with fungi, could identify with more assurance.

This white truffle has a thin buff-colored skin and can be slightly knobby with a marbled toffee & cream to the dark coffee-colored interior when ripe. They are used primarily as aroma and flavor accents in pasta dishes as well as in creole cuisine with a slight umami flavor."

I found these under a Loblolly pine, which I guess they are experimenting as a host for truffles in NC.
