    🥘 Ingredients

    • Heavy whipping cream - full fat, not a skinny version! The lower fat content can lead to the truffles not getting the right consistency and thus can not be processed well.
    • Dark couverture - Here, take the one that tastes best, from Callebaut couverture to Felchlin, whichever brand you like best.
    • Lotus Biscoff cookies, finely crumbled - These provide an incomparable caramel flavor. You can substitute speculoos for the Biscoff ones for an even more Christmassy touch.
    • Unsweetened cocoa powder, for rolling - We recommend using a high-quality Criollo cocoa powder, as this provides the most intense cocoa flavor.

    🔪 Instructions

    Step 1

    In a medium-sized bowl, break the couverture into pieces and place them inside. Meanwhile, bring the whipping cream to a boil in a small saucepan.

    Once the whipping cream starts to boil, empty it over the prepared couverture pieces and let it sit for about 5 minutes. Then whisk until smooth and a lovely chocolate cream forms.

    Set the mixture aside and use the universal chopper to crush the Biscoff cookies into crumbs. Optionally, you can also use speculoos or ready-made cookie crumbs.

    Now mix the Biscoff cookie crumbs with the previously prepared chocolate cream until they are well combined.

    Cover the mixing bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and refrigerate the truffle mixture for eight hours (preferably overnight).

    Step 2

    Now it's time to create those bite-sized truffles and roll them in cocoa powder afterward. For this, we recommend that you make a few preparations in advance.

    First, sprinkle the cocoa powder in a small loaf pan. We recommend using enough powder to completely cover the bottom of the loaf pan, with a depth of at least 1.2 inches (3 centimeters).

    This way, you can be sure that the truffles will roll well in it.

    Set out 15-20 paper chocolate cups and a pair of gloves. Rolling the truffles is a pretty sticky endeavor that is best accomplished with a couple of disposable gloves.

    Chocolate paper cups, disposable gloves, and pan with raw Criollo cacao powder.

    Prepare the paper cups, disposable gloves, and the raw cacao powder.

    Once everything is in place, take the chilled Biscoff cookie chocolate mixture out of the fridge and start making the truffles immediately.

    The mixture comes out of the fridge very firm, but will soften as soon as you roll it in your hands.

    Using a teaspoon, prick off small pieces and roll them between your hands to form a small ball.

    Once rolled, drop them into the loaf pan with cocoa, swirl the pan back and forth briefly to coat the truffles well with cocoa, and then immediately roll the next one.

    Place the coated truffles in the prepared paper cups.

    If the Biscoff chocolate mass becomes too soft, put it in the refrigerator in between.

    During this additional cooling time, divide the finished pralines among the set-up paper chocolate cups and store them in a cookie tin.

    Place the filled cookie tin back in the refrigerator, so the chocolate candies do not become too soft.
