Decadant Truffles with Gingerbread Cookies and Biscoff, then dipped in chocolate! Great addition to any Holiday cookie tray.
Welcome to day #4 of Christmas Week, a multi-blogger event co-hosted by Kim of Cravings of a Lunatic and Jen of Juanita’s Cocina. Today’s theme for Christmas Week is “Gingerbread Surprise”.
I make truffles every year for Christmas. I usually stick with a plain chocolate, a mint one, and then an almond flavored one. Last year I did Cookie Dough Tuffles, and my son is already requesting that we do those again this year. This year, I had to find a way to turn Biscoff into a truffle. And pairing it with Gingerbread seemed like a great combination.
These are super easy to make, and you can use all store bought ingredients if you want. Sssshhhhh, don’t tell anyone, but that is what I did. All you have to do is find your favorite gingerbread cookie (or ginger snaps). Biscoff Cookies would be perfect too (I might have made some that way as well). Crush the cookies in your food processor, mix in some Biscoff spread, roll into balls, and dip in chocolate. They are a little crunchy in the inside, and completely decadent!
I gave these to my MIL for part of her Christmas present (we celebrated when we were in WI for Thanksgiving), and also gave some to my husbands Grandma. They got rave reviews all around. Even my Dad who is the ultimate skeptic with anything not 100% chocolate, thought they were delicious! So get in the kitchen, and make these for your holiday cookie tray.
Make sure you visit all the participating bloggers today to see what special dish they whipped up for you.

December 8, 2012 at 12:59 amI’m deliciously swooning at the sight! These are great gifts too but I am pretty sure I would eat most of them before they were wrapped up.

December 8, 2012 at 1:06 amGingerbread and biscoff is probably one of my favorite combos. And then add chocolates, and I’m a goner! These look amazing. They would disappear in no time flat around here.

December 9, 2012 at 1:00 pmWhoa. I love the idea of gingerbread + Biscoff together! And truffles like this are my worst enemy. SOO good.

December 12, 2012 at 1:42 pmThese look delicious! Can you tell me roughly how much semi-sweet chocolate to use? A full bag of chocolate chips??
Thanks.
Erin says
December 12, 2012 at 1:44 pmI used about a bag of chocolate chips – maybe a little more. Depends one how good you are at dipping if you can get off the excess better than I can 🙂
I hope you enjoy!
