Craving something sweet but don't want to turn on the oven? Scrolling through endless dessert ideas, but don't want to bake? Then you have to make these no-bake Biscoff truffles! These are rich, creamy, and ready in minutes with just 3 ingredients! I've made them for girls' night, potlucks, and lazy weekends, and they never last long-trust me, you're going to love how easy and impressive they are!

✈️Our Biscoff Obsession Started on a Flight

Our love story with Lotus Biscoff biscuits began in 2016, somewhere between Yanbu and Khobar. We were handed those now-iconic caramelised cookies on a flight, and since then, we've been hooked. Soon after, I discovered Biscoff spread, and let's just say, it replaced peanut butter in my kitchen for a long while.

Both the cookies and the spread are so easy to turn into desserts like my no-churn ice cream, cakes, and truffles. I love making bite-sized sweet treats, as you may already know.

📝 Ingredients Notes

Here's a quick breakdown of what you'll need-and why I chose them-for this easy Biscoff truffles recipe:

🍪 Lotus Biscoff Biscuits: These caramelised cookies are sweet enough on their own, so I only added a little sugar. I used 20 Biscoff cookies for this batch.
Tip: You can swap them with any cookies you like-just adjust the sugar to taste.

🧀 Cream Cheese: I used solid cream cheese squares (specifically 5 squares of Almarai brand, not the spreadable type). Let them sit at room temperature for at least 30 minutes before mixing, so they blend smoothly with the crumbs.

🍫 Semi-Sweet Baking Chocolate: This is for dipping and coating the truffles. Choose a good-quality chocolate for the best results.
Add a tiny bit of vegetable oil, coconut oil, or shortening while melting-this makes dipping much easier and gives a smoother finish.

🌰 Almond Flour (Optional): I added a bit of almond flour to give the truffles a slightly cakey bite. Totally optional, but worth trying if you like that texture.

✨ Garnish: I went the easy route and just sprinkled Biscoff cookie crumbs and granulated brown sugar on top. But if you're feeling fancy, melt some Biscoff spread and drizzle it over the truffles for that wow effect. This part is your canvas-decorate quickly before the chocolate sets!

How to make it?

Don't worry-Biscoff truffles are super beginner-friendly! The only part that needs a little extra care is melting the chocolate. Here's how you can make a perfect batch without any hiccups.

Step 1: Blend the Cookies

Crush the Lotus Biscoff biscuits in a food processor or mixie until fine crumbs form.
You can also pop them into a ziplock bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
In the same jar, whisk the cream cheese (and sugar, if using) until smooth. This way, you've got fewer dishes to clean!

Step 2: Roll the Truffles

Mix the cookie crumbs and cream cheese into a dough-like mixture.
Scoop with a tablespoon and roll into balls.
If it feels sticky, chill the mixture for 10-15 minutes first.
Place the rolled truffles on a tray lined with baking paper and chill or freeze until firm. This helps them hold their shape and makes dipping easier!

Step 3: Dip in Chocolate

Melt your chocolate using the double boiler (bain-marie) method to avoid burning.
You can use the microwave if you're confident with it-just be sure to go slow.
Dip each chilled truffle into the melted chocolate using a fork or dipping tool.
Add sprinkles, crushed cookies, or other toppings right away before the coating sets.

Step 4: Clean Up the Edges

Once set, gently break off any chocolate drips around the base of the truffles for a neater finish.
Don't throw away the bits-you can snack on them or save them for a dessert topping!

How to Dip Truffles in Chocolate (Without Fancy Tools!)

Don't worry-you don't need any special tools to dip truffles beautifully. Here's my tried-and-true method using just a fork, a small bowl, and a rubber spatula:

Melt the chocolate in a small, deep bowl. The depth makes it easier to dunk the truffles completely without needing too much chocolate.
Drop one chilled truffle into the melted chocolate. Use a fork to gently swirl it around so the coating is even.
Lift the truffle with the fork and tap the fork on the edge of the bowl to let the excess chocolate drip off. Be patient-it only takes a few seconds!
Use a rubber spatula to slide the truffle off the fork and onto a tray lined with baking paper. The spatula helps clean off the fork, so it's ready for the next one.
Repeat quickly! If the chocolate starts to thicken, just warm it up again to keep it smooth and dip-friendly.

FAQ

Can we freeze biscoff cookie truffles?

Yes, they can be frozen for up to three months. Freeze them in a single layer on a lined sheet until frozen, and then transfer them to a freezer-safe container. This method will prevent the truffles from sticking to each other and also easy to take out as much as you need. Thaw in the fridge and serve only close to serving time.
