I fell in love with Biscoff Cookies many years ago when I was on an airplane, just like I’m sure many of you did. I’d never had one of the crispy speculoos cookies so I wasn’t expecting much when I opened the little 2-cookie package that the flight attendant gave me. Wow, was I surprised when bit into the rectangle cookie. It was seriously, love at first bite.
The texture of the cookie was crunchy and felt dry but it sort of melted in my mouth and the flavor of caramel, cinnamon, and gingerbread lingered on my tongue. I fell into a bit of a food trance and before I knew it my cookies were gone.
I studied the packaging looking for the name of the manufacturer so that I could look them up as soon as I had a chance. I knew I couldn’t wait until I flew again to have another one of these treats.
Happily, a few years later the Biscoff Cookies started making appearances in my local grocery stores. Then not too long after that the Biscoff Cookie Spread hit the shelves. Over the years I’ve made quite a few desserts using both but surprisingly have only shared one of these recipes with you.
Today I’m going to change that.
A while back I showed you have to make Biscoff Butterscotch Basketballs. The recipe was wonderful but I realized that unless you are looking for basketball-themed treats you might not have even noticed this dessert recipe on my site.
The recipe that I used to make the basketballs was simply Biscoff Cookie Butter mixed with Butterscotch Chips. When I decided to make these Biscoff Truffles, I chose to use white chocolate chips instead and love these even more than the original recipe.
I especially love how easy they are to make.
You simply crush some Biscoff Cookies. Then blend together melted white chocolate chips and some Biscoff Cookie Spread, chill it, then scoop and roll into the crumbs.
Don’t you just love recipes like that?

Recipe
Originally published April 26, 2017
- 6 ounces white chocolate chips (about 1 cup )
- 10 ounces Biscoff Cookie Spread*
- 6 Biscoff Cookies
- *Measure the Cookie Spread in a dry measuring cup and over fill it just slightly.
-
Pour white chocolate chips into a microwave-safe bowl.
-
Heat on high power, for 30 seconds, then remove and stir.
-
Heat for two more 30 second bursts on high power, stirring after each.
-
Let the white chocolate sit for 2 minutes then stir again.
-
If not completely melted, heat for 10-20 more seconds.
-
Stir in the Biscoff Cookie Spread.
-
Place a piece of plastic wrap directly on top of the mixture and set aside for several hours until firm.
-
Optionally, you can place the mixture in the refrigerator for about an hour then let sit on your counter until soft enough to scoop.
-
Meanwhile, crush 6 Biscoff Cookies into fine crumbs using a rolling pin or food processor.
-
Scoop out twenty six 2-teaspoon size scoops and set on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet.
-
Roll one scoop into a ball then immediately roll it into the Cookie Crumbs.
-
Repeat.
NOTES:
- Be careful to melt your white chocolate on short bursts of power otherwise you might burn the candy.
- You can use any white chocolate you like, including white chocolate chips, bars, or even Candy Melts.
- Use a small OXO scoop to create perfectly sized Biscoff Truffles.
How do you get the balls so perfectly round without the chocolate/biscoff mixture melting and sticking to your hands? Also, how do you get the crumbs to completely stick to the balls? Love the recipe, I just tried making a ton as gifts and part of an office holiday treat.
Hi LT, if you use an ice cream scoop this really helps to shape the truffles into balls then you need to roll them in your hands. I find rolling them around in my finger area versus in the palm of my hand helps to make them more round but this won’t be true for everyone. It will depend on the shape of your hand.
Being these truffles are made using white chocolate they will definitely begin to melt in your hands a bit and if you notice in the video they do stick a little to my gloves. I love to wear food handling gloves when making truffles so that I don’t have to continually wash my hands. Once the truffles do get a bit soft and sticky the cookie crumbs should stick well so you actually need to have them melt a bit.
I hope this helps. I’m so glad you enjoyed the flavor of these Biscoff Truffles.
How do you store these please?
Keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 weeks. You can freeze them then allow them to thaw overnight in the refrigerator then allow them to sit at room temperature for a few hours before opening the package. This will help to keep them from getting sticky with condensation.

Can you use milk chocolate instead of white? Thank you
You can swap out milk chocolate for white chocolate in a truffle recipe but the ratios of chocolate to, in this case, Biscoff Spread, will be slightly different. Milk chocolate is not quite as soft as white chocolate so you’ll need to use a bit less of it in order for your truffles to have the same texture. I have not made this recipe using milk chocolate but based on the ratios of dark/milk/white chocolate that I use to make traditional chocolate truffles using heavy whipping cream, you will need to use 5 ounces of milk chocolate instead of 6 ounces of white chocolate in this recipe. That doesn’t seem like it would make much difference but it could make your Biscoff Truffles a bit too firm.
One other thing to note is that the milk chocolate will mute (or soften) the flavor of the Biscoff Spread. Taste the mixture while it’s warm and add a bit of cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, allspice, or cloves if you want to bring more of those flavors out.
