Truffle Base
- 1 cup white cake mix (heat-treated)
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup Biscoff cookie butter
Coating and Drizzle
- 2 cups white chocolate chips, melted
- 1/4 cup Biscoff cookie butter, melted
- Heat-Treat the Cake Mix: Spread the white cake mix evenly on a microwave-safe plate. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, for a total of 1 to 2 minutes to heat-treat the mix. Allow it to cool completely to prevent melting the cream cheese in the next steps.
- Prepare the Truffle Mixture: In a medium bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the 1/2 cup of Biscoff cookie butter and mix until fully incorporated. Gradually add the cooled, heat-treated cake mix, stirring continuously until the mixture becomes smooth and uniform without lumps.
- Form the Truffle Balls: Using about 1 tablespoon of the mixture for each, roll the mixture into balls with your hands. Place the formed truffles on a parchment-lined baking sheet to prevent sticking.
- Chill the Truffles: Refrigerate the truffles for at least 1 hour, or until firm enough to dip without deforming.
- Melt the White Chocolate: Place white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and melt in 20-30 second increments, stirring between intervals until smooth and glossy.
- Coat the Truffles: Using a fork or toothpick, dip each chilled truffle into the melted white chocolate. Allow excess chocolate to drip off before placing coated truffles back onto the parchment-lined sheet for setting.
- Melt the Cookie Butter Drizzle: Microwave 1/4 cup Biscoff cookie butter for 20 to 30 seconds until smooth and pourable. Drizzle over the coated truffles using a spoon or piping bag for decorative flair.
- Set the Coating: Let the truffles sit at room temperature or refrigerate them until the white chocolate and cookie butter drizzle are fully set and firm, ready to serve.
Notes
- Heat-treating the cake mix is important to kill any potential bacteria and improve texture.
- Softened cream cheese should be at room temperature for easy mixing.
- Store truffles in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to one week.
- For easier rolling, slightly wet your hands or chill the mixture if too sticky.
- Use good quality white chocolate chips for best coating results.
- Allow adequate cooling times to ensure truffles set properly without melting.
