Ingredients for Biscoff Cookie Butter Balls
This is a quick overview of the ingredients you’ll need for this Cookie Butter Truffle recipe. Specific measurements and full recipe instructions are in the printable recipe card below.
- creamy cookie butter
- unsalted butter
- vanilla extract
- salt
- powered sugar
- white chocolate melting wafers or high quality white chocolate chips
How to make Cookie Butter Balls
- Add the cookie butter and the butter to a large bowl and mix together with a hand mixer and mix for a couple minutes until they are combined well, and nice and smooth. Mix in the vanilla and salt.
- Add in the powdered sugar, gradually adding 1/2 cup at a time while mixing slowly, until it reaches a dough like consistency.
- Scoop the truffle mixture into 1 Tablespoon portions and roll into small balls. Place them onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Place the pan in the freezer for about 30 minutes.
- Add the white chocolate to a microwave-safe bowl and melt in 30 second increments, stirring after each, until you can stir it smooth. It should only take about 1 minute total. Stick a toothpick into the top of each Biscoff ball and dip it into the melted white chocolate, covering all but the top circle of the ball. Gently roll the ball around to let some of the excess chocolate drip off. Place the ball back onto the parchment paper. Use your fingers to smooth the Biscoff filling to cover the toothpick hole, if you want to. Place the pan back in the fridge to chill the balls until the white chocolate is hardened.
Tips and Tricks:
- Chill the Dough. Chill the truffle balls in the fridge or freezer for at least 30 minutes. This will make them easier to handle and make the dipping process easier and neater.
- Decorate. Get creative with decorations for these balls. Drizzle extra melted white chocolate, or melted chocolate over the top of the balls. Or top with sprinkles or chopped Biscoff cookie crumbs.
- Chocolate Coating. Use dark chocolate or milk chocolate instead of white chocolate for a different flavor.
How to store Biscoff Buckeyes?
These Cookie Butter Balls will stay good if stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks. This makes them a great make ahead treat because they can be made in advanced and stay great until you want to add them to your treat containers, or for your holiday party.
They can also be frozen for up to 3 months. I like to flash freeze them first on a lined cookie sheet for 30 minutes, then once frozen transfer them to a freezer safe container. You can eat them straight from frozen or thaw them in the fridge for a few hours.
These Biscoff bites are such a delicious homemade candy, that is simple to make, but seems very decadent. They’re such a great treat for Biscoff lovers!

Notes
- If your peanut butter balls are too sticky you can fix this by adding a little more powdered sugar to the mixture, or keeping them in the freezer longer before dipping.
- If the peanut butter mixture does end up too crumbly, add another 2 TBS of peanut butter at a time until the consistency is soft again.
