Why You’ll Love These Biscoff Truffles
These Biscoff truffles combine the rich, smooth sweetness of white chocolate with the unique spiced cookie flavour of Biscoff for a melt-in-your-mouth experience that’ll leave everyone begging for the recipe. Best of all, they’re super easy to make! There’s no need to fuss over the oven, and you can even make them ahead, so the festive season is a little less hectic. 🥳
Tips and Tricks for Perfect Biscoff Truffles
Making Biscoff truffles is as easy as it gets, but a few little tricks can take them to the next level:
- Choose the Best White Chocolate: For the best results, use high-quality white chocolate melts for smooth, creamy coverage. Avoid chocolate that contains added oils, as this can make it hard to get that perfect coating on your truffles.
- Blitz to Perfection: Crush the Biscoff biscuits in a food processor until they’re super fine. This makes a difference in the texture and helps the mixture hold together better.
- Freeze Before Dipping: Freezing the truffle mixture is a game-changer! It makes the balls much firmer, so they’re easier to dip into the melted chocolate without falling apart. Just a quick hour in the freezer, and they’ll be good to go.
- Get Creative with Sprinkles: The festive season calls for a bit of sparkle! I like to use red and green sprinkles, edible glitter, or even small candy canes crushed up for some extra crunch and colour.
- Work in Batches: If you’re making a big batch, keep some of the truffle mixture in the fridge while you dip a few at a time. This way, they stay nice and firm as you work through the batch.
Serving and Pairing Ideas
Biscoff Truffles are rich and creamy, making them a perfect match for a cup of coffee, hot chocolate, or even a glass of chilled Baileys or sweet dessert wine. Serve them as part of a Christmas dessert platter alongside other treats like gingerbread cookies, fruit mince pies, and chocolate-dipped strawberries for a spread that will impress your guests. These truffles also work beautifully as a sweet addition to a festive brunch or holiday afternoon tea!
Storage Tips to Keep Your Truffles Fresh
These Biscoff truffles keep wonderfully, so they’re great for making ahead or gifting. Here’s how to store them for the best taste and texture:
- Refrigerate: Keep your Biscoff truffles in an airtight container in the fridge, where they’ll stay fresh for up to two weeks. Just take them out a few minutes before serving, so the chocolate softens slightly.
- Freeze: If you want to make a big batch ahead of time, you can also freeze these truffles. Lay them on a tray to freeze individually before transferring them to a freezer-safe container. They’ll last up to three months this way. Just remember to thaw them in the fridge overnight.

Frequently Asked Questions
Absolutely! While Biscoff biscuits have a distinct flavour that gives these truffles their unique taste, you could use any spiced or shortbread-style biscuit. However, the texture and flavour will vary depending on the type of biscuit you choose.
A food processor makes it super easy to crush the Biscoff biscuits into a fine powder, but if you don’t have one, you can place the biscuits in a ziplock bag and crush them with a rolling pin. Just make sure the crumbs are as fine as possible for the best results!
Melt the white chocolate in short bursts in the microwave, stirring in between. This prevents overheating, which can make the chocolate seize up and become clumpy. If the chocolate does get too thick, you can add a teaspoon of coconut oil to thin it out slightly.
