Scale
Main Ingredients
- 1 cup Biscoff cookies (crushed)
- 4 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 1/2 cup powdered sugar
- 8 oz white or milk chocolate (for coating)
Optional Ingredients
- Sprinkles or crushed Biscoff cookies (for decoration)
- Finely chopped toasted almonds or hazelnuts (for variation)
- Pinch of cinnamon or chili powder (for spiced variation)
- Melted caramel or peanut butter (for drizzling)
- Alcohol (Baileys, rum, or Kahlua) – a splash, optional
Instructions
- Crush the Biscoff Cookies: Place Biscoff cookies in a sealed plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin or pulse in a food processor until fine crumbs form with some texture remaining.
- Mix Cookies with Cream Cheese: In a mixing bowl, combine the crushed cookies, softened cream cheese, and powdered sugar. Stir until smooth and pliable.
- Form the Truffle Centers: Shape the mixture into bite-sized balls using your hands or a small cookie scoop. Place on a parchment-lined tray and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes.
- Melt the Chocolate Coating: Melt your choice of chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl or over a double boiler, stirring frequently until smooth and glossy.
- Dip and Decorate: Dip each chilled truffle ball into the melted chocolate ensuring an even coat. Place back on parchment and add sprinkles or crushed Biscoff crumbs while the chocolate is wet.
- Chill Until Set: Refrigerate the coated truffles for at least 1 hour or until the chocolate hardens completely before serving.
Notes
- Chill centers thoroughly before dipping to prevent melting.
- Use high-quality chocolate for best taste and shine.
- Softened cream cheese blends more easily for a smooth mixture.
- Work quickly when dipping as chocolate hardens fast.
- Store finished truffles in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
- Truffles can be frozen for up to 3 months; thaw in fridge overnight before serving.
