Ingredients You’ll Need
The beauty of these truffles lies in their simplicity, with just a handful of ingredients that each play an important role in taste and texture. Every component is easy to find, and each one contributes to a perfect balance of creamy, crunchy, and sweet flavors.
- Biscoff cookies: These spiced cookies provide that signature caramelized crunch and warmth that define the truffles.
- Cream cheese (room temperature): This gives the truffles their rich, smooth texture and mild tang.
- Milk: Just a little bit to bring the cookie dough together without making it too wet.
- White chocolate (chopped or chips): Melts into a silky coating that adds sweetness and a beautiful finish to each truffle.
How to Make No-Bake Biscoff Truffles Recipe
Step 1: Prepare the Cookie Base
Start by setting aside two Biscoff cookies to crush later for garnish—this step adds a fun, crunchy topping. Next, crush the remaining cookies into a fine, sandy texture using a food processor. This crumbly base will give your truffles body and flavor.
Step 2: Mix in the Cream Cheese and Milk
Add the room-temperature cream cheese to the cookie crumbs and pulse until combined. Slowly add milk one tablespoon at a time until the mixture forms a dough that holds together but is not overly sticky. This creamy mixture is the heart of your truffle, and the perfect consistency is key.
Step 3: Chill the Dough
Transfer your dough into a bowl and chill it in the refrigerator for about 30 minutes. This step firms up the dough so it’s easier to roll into neat, uniform balls in the next step.
Step 4: Shape the Truffles
Line a baking sheet with wax or parchment paper. Using your hands or a small scoop, form the dough into roughly 1-inch balls and place them on the lined baking sheet. Pop the tray back into the fridge for another 10 minutes. This helps the truffles keep their shape when dipped.
Step 5: Dip in White Chocolate
Melt the white chocolate either in a double boiler or microwave using short intervals to avoid burning. Carefully dip each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off. Return the coated truffles to the baking sheet and refrigerate until the chocolate hardens, creating a smooth, crisp shell.
How to Serve No-Bake Biscoff Truffles Recipe
Garnishes
Sprinkle the reserved crushed Biscoff cookies on top while the chocolate coating is still soft for a beautiful visual contrast and extra crunch. You can also add a light dusting of cocoa powder or drizzle some melted dark chocolate for an elegant touch.
Side Dishes
These truffles are versatile and pair beautifully with a steaming cup of coffee or chai to echo the warm spices in the Biscoff cookies. Serve them alongside fresh berries or a dollop of whipped cream for a refined dessert plate.
Creative Ways to Present
Try arranging the truffles in mini paper cupcake liners or place them on decorative platters for parties. For a gift idea, wrap them in clear cellophane bags tied with ribbons—these delightful little treasures make for an unforgettable homemade gift.
Make Ahead and Storage
Storing Leftovers
Keep your No-Bake Biscoff Truffles chilled in an airtight container in the refrigerator. They will stay fresh and delicious for up to one week, making them a perfect ready-to-go snack or treat for unexpected guests.
Freezing
If you want to make a big batch, these truffles freeze wonderfully. Place them in a single layer on a tray to freeze initially, then transfer to an airtight container or freezer bag. They can be stored frozen for up to three months and thawed in the fridge when you’re ready to enjoy them.
Reheating
Since these are no-bake truffles with a chocolate coating, reheating is not necessary. If you prefer softer chocolate, simply leave the truffles at room temperature for 10-15 minutes before serving to slightly soften the coating.
FAQs
Can I use a different type of cookie instead of Biscoff?
Absolutely! While Biscoff cookies give a unique caramel and spice flavor, you can experiment with graham crackers or speculoos for a similar texture. Just keep in mind the flavor will change accordingly.
Is it necessary to use cream cheese? Can I substitute it?
Cream cheese is key for the creamy consistency and tangy note, but you can try mascarpone or a dairy-free cream cheese alternative if needed. Just make sure the substitute has a similar texture.
How do I prevent the white chocolate from seizing when melting?
Melting chocolate slowly over a double boiler or in short bursts in the microwave helps avoid overheating and seizing. Stir often and make sure no water gets into the chocolate.
Can I use dark or milk chocolate instead of white chocolate?
Definitely! Dark or milk chocolate makes a fantastic coating and will add a deeper flavor. Just melt and dip as you would with white chocolate.
Are these truffles suitable for people with dietary restrictions?
You can make these truffles dairy-free by choosing dairy-free cream cheese and chocolate. Just check the labels carefully to suit your dietary needs without compromising flavor.
