Ingredients
Truffles
- 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.
