- 2 cups Biscoff crumbs: These provide the crunchy, spiced base that’s essential for that signature flavor and texture.
- 2 tbsp Biscoff spread: Adds a smooth, caramelized richness that blends the crumbs and cream cheese beautifully.
- 6 tbsp cream cheese, softened: Gives the truffle dough a creamy, silky texture and balances the sweetness perfectly.
- 2 cups gold chocolate: This delectable coating not only adds visual elegance but also complements the Biscoff taste magnificently.

How to Make Biscoff Truffles Recipe
Step 1: Prepare the Truffle Dough
Start by combining the Biscoff crumbs, Biscoff spread, and softened cream cheese in a bowl or food processor. If you use a food processor, your mixture will turn out smooth and velvety, while mixing by hand will give it a lovely textured bite. Blend everything until it forms a smooth dough that you can shape easily.
Step 2: Shape the Truffles
Using your hands, scoop spoonfuls of the dough and roll them into small balls. Place these on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Pop the tray into the fridge for about 5 minutes to firm them up slightly, but be careful not to chill them too much, or the chocolate coating may crack later.
Step 3: Melt the Gold Chocolate
While the truffles chill, gently melt the gold chocolate. Gold chocolate is the perfect choice here because it carries a flavor that mirrors Biscoff’s caramelized, spiced notes, helping to tie the whole recipe together beautifully. Take your time melting the chocolate smoothly to avoid any lumps.
Step 4: Coat the Truffles in Chocolate
Once melted, use a fork to dip each truffle into the gold chocolate, lifting them out and allowing the excess to drip away. This coating encases each truffle in a glossy, luscious shell that adds both elegance and that irresistible snap when you bite into it. Place the coated truffles back on the lined baking sheet.
Step 5: Decorate and Chill
Drizzle the remaining Biscoff spread over the chocolate-coated truffles, then sprinkle with extra Biscoff crumbs. This step not only adds a beautiful finishing touch but infuses even more of that iconic flavor. Let the truffles chill in the fridge for at least 30 minutes to set before serving. When ready, let them come to room temperature slightly for the best taste and texture.
How to Serve Biscoff Truffles Recipe
Garnishes
These truffles are stunning enough on their own, but a delicate sprinkle of crushed Biscoff cookies or a light dusting of edible gold glitter can make them feel extra festive and inviting. Fresh mint leaves or a tiny pinch of sea salt work wonders if you’re aiming for a surprising twist.
Side Dishes
Pair your Biscoff Truffles with a hot cup of coffee or your favorite spiced chai tea to elevate the experience. They also pair beautifully with creamy vanilla ice cream or a scoop of whipped mascarpone, which softens that spice and adds a refreshing creaminess.
Creative Ways to Present
Present these in little paper cups lined up on a pretty platter or nestled inside a decorative gift box tied with a satin ribbon. For parties, arrange the truffles among other small dessert bites for an eye-catching dessert board featuring various textures and flavors that complement the truffles’ richness.
Make Ahead and Storage
Storing Leftovers
If you happen to have any leftovers, store them in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They’ll keep well for up to a week while maintaining their texture and delightful flavor. Just be sure to bring them back to room temperature before enjoying.
Freezing
These truffles freeze beautifully! Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet first and freeze until solid, then transfer to a freezer-safe container. When you’re ready to eat, thaw them in the fridge overnight for best results—this helps preserve their consistency and taste.
Reheating
No need to reheat Biscoff Truffles Recipe treats since they are best served cool or at room temperature. However, letting them sit out for 15-20 minutes after refrigeration allows their flavors and texture to shine the brightest.
FAQs
Can I use regular cream cheese instead of softened?
Absolutely, just make sure to soften the cream cheese before mixing so it blends well with the other ingredients for that smooth dough texture essential in this Biscoff Truffles Recipe.
Is there an alternative to gold chocolate if I can’t find it?
Yes! You can use white chocolate, but keep in mind that gold chocolate complements the Biscoff flavor better with its similar caramel notes, so your truffles might taste slightly different.
How long do Biscoff Truffles last?
Stored properly in the fridge, these truffles last about one week. Always keep them covered to avoid picking up any fridge odors.
Can I make these truffles vegan?
You can try substituting cream cheese with a vegan cream cheese alternative, but traditionally, cream cheese adds the perfect creamy texture in this Biscoff Truffles Recipe. Adjustments may affect the final consistency slightly.
Do I have to chill the truffles before coating them?
Chilling helps the truffles firm up, making them easier to dip and preventing the chocolate shell from cracking, so it’s a highly recommended step to get those perfect smooth truffles.
Final Thoughts
There’s something truly magical about homemade truffles, and this Biscoff Truffles Recipe delivers that magic perfectly in every bite. It’s simple, fun, and absolutely delicious—whether you’re making them for a special occasion or just because you deserve a little treat.

Ingredients

- 2 cups biscoff crumbs (225 grams)
- 2 tbsp biscoff spread
- 6 tbsp cream cheese, softened (85 grams)
To Decorate
- 2 cups gold chocolate (340 grams)
- 2 tbsp biscoff spread
- 2 tbsp biscoff crumbs
Instructions
- Prepare the truffle dough: Place the biscoff crumbs, biscoff spread, and softened cream cheese into a food processor or a mixing bowl. Mix the ingredients together until a smooth dough forms. Using the food processor will create smoother truffles, while mixing by hand results in a more textured finish.
- Shape the truffles: Using a spoon, scoop out portions of the dough and roll each between your hands to form balls. Place each truffle on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Chill the tray in the refrigerator for 5 minutes to firm up the truffles but avoid overchilling to prevent chocolate cracking later.
- Melt the chocolate coating: Gently melt the gold or white chocolate until smooth. Gold chocolate is recommended as it complements the biscoff flavor beautifully.
- Coat the truffles: Using a fork, dip each truffle into the melted chocolate, then lift and allow excess chocolate to drip off. Place the coated truffles back onto the baking sheet.
- Add final touches: Drizzle melted biscoff spread over the chocolate-coated truffles and sprinkle with biscoff crumbs for added texture and flavor.
- Chill before serving: Refrigerate the truffles for 30 minutes to allow the coating to set. Before serving, let them sit at room temperature for a few minutes to soften slightly and enhance flavor.
Notes
- Do not over-chill the truffles before coating in chocolate to avoid cracking.
- Gold chocolate is preferred for its complementary biscoff flavor but white chocolate can be used as a substitute.
- Allow the truffles to come slightly to room temperature before serving for the best texture.
- The recipe makes approximately 16 truffles depending on size.
- Use a food processor if you want a smoother truffle texture; hand mixing offers more rustic texture.
