Biscoff truffles
Description
Biscoff truffles are made by finely crushing Lotus Biscoff cookies into a powdery crumb, then mixing them with cream cheese and Biscoff spread to form a smooth and well-incorporated dough-like mixture. By rolling tablespoon-sized portions into balls and chilling them, the truffles gain a firm texture that holds its shape well.
The sweet and spiced flavor profile of the Biscoff cookies combined with creamy spread and tangy cream cheese creates a distinctive taste and mouthfeel. The optional step of dipping the chilled truffles in melted chocolate adds a glossy, rich exterior that contrasts the soft interior.
This treat can be served chilled as bite-sized sweets, suitable for sharing or dessert. The recipe is straightforward, requiring no baking and minimal preparation, making it convenient for quick indulgences or gatherings.
Ingredients
- 250 grams Lotus Biscoff cookies 250g = one pack
- 140 grams cream cheese
- 4 tablespoons Biscoff spread
- chocolate optional, for dipping, about 200g
Instructions
- Crush the Lotus Biscoff cookies into very fine crumbs, ideally a powdery consistency. You can use a food processor to do this quickly or place the cookies in a resealable plastic bag and crush by rolling over them with a rolling pin.
- Mix the finely crushed cookie crumbs together with the Biscoff spread and the cream cheese until well incorporated and you have achieved a smooth, blended texture with no lumps.
- Use a spoon to scoop and roll tablespoon sized portions of the truffle filling evenly into balls. Arrange them in a single layer on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
- Place the baking sheet of truffle balls in the fridge to chill for 15 minutes. The chilling helps the truffle filling firm up.
- If you plan to dip the truffles in melted chocolate, you can melt the chocolate either in short bursts in the microwave, stirring frequently, or in a double boiler on the stovetop.
- One by one, dip the chilled truffle balls into the melted chocolate and use a fork to lift them back out, allowing any excess chocolate to drip freely through the tines of the fork back into the bowl before transferring the chocolate-coated truffle onto a parchment paper lined plate or baking sheet.
- Leave to the truffles to set.
