These cookie butter truffles are three ingredient truffles are easy to make even when you are short on time. Cookie butter spread, white chocolate, and crushed Biscoff cookies make up these little bites of bliss.
Cookie Butter: What is it?
- Amazingly delicious
- Somewhat addictive
- Pulverized spice cookies (Biscoff is the most commonly recognized brand) that are blended with other ingredients to make a spread the same consistency as peanut butter.
Why White Chocolate?
- Cookie butter spread is very soft and would not hold it's shape if mixed with cream or butter. It order to make the round shape, you must have a hard fat in the recipe. A hard fat is a fat source that is solid at room temperature. White chocolate contains cocoa butter, which is a hard fat. It causes the cream center to become firmer when setting and can be scooped or formed into shapes. A bar of white chocolate is very firm under normal room conditions (imagine snapping it in half!) and doesn't overpower the flavor of the cookie butter.
The main part of this recipe, the cookie butter cream center, can be used in multiple ways.
- Cookie Butter truffles, rolled in crushed cookies (below recipe)
- Cookie Butter truffles, dipped in chocolate
- Cookie Butter cream center for candy bars or between cookies
- Dropped and swirled into brownies, cheesecakes, or cake.
It is so versitle and quick to whip up, you'll be wondering what else you can do with it immediately after the first time you try it.
