Tips & Variations

• Use room temperature heavy cream and cookie butter for a smoother ganache texture.
• Substitute milk chocolate for semi-sweet if you prefer a sweeter, creamier filling.
• Try white chocolate in the ganache for a different flavor profile.
• Add a teaspoon of espresso powder for a mocha twist.
• Use a tart pan with a removable bottom for easier removal and cleaner presentation.
• Warm your knife under hot water and wipe it clean before slicing to achieve neat, smooth cuts.
• Decorate the tart just before serving to keep garnishes fresh and crisp.
• Avoid freezing the whole tart to preserve ganache texture; freeze individual slices if needed.

Storage

Store the tart in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days. It can be left at room temperature for up to 2 hours before serving.

Ingredients

Scale 1x2x3x

For the Biscoff Crust:

• 2 cups Biscoff cookies, crushed
• 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted

For the Chocolate Ganache Filling:

• 1 cup heavy cream
• 8 ounces semi-sweet chocolate, chopped
• 2 tablespoons Biscoff cookie butter
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• Pinch of sea salt

For Garnish (Optional):

• Extra Biscoff cookies, crushed
• Shaved chocolate or chocolate curls
• Whipped cream

Instructions

1. Prepare Crust Mixture: Place the crushed Biscoff cookies in a mixing bowl and pour in the melted unsalted butter. Stir thoroughly until the cookie crumbs are evenly coated with butter, forming a crumbly mixture.
2. Form the Crust: Press the crumb mixture firmly into the bottom and up the sides of a tart pan, ideally one with a removable bottom for easy removal. Use the back of a spoon or a measuring cup to create an even, compact layer.
3. Chill the Crust: Place the crust in the refrigerator to chill and set firmly while preparing the ganache filling.
4. Heat the Cream: In a small saucepan over medium heat, warm the heavy cream just until it begins to simmer. Remove it from heat immediately before it boils to prevent splitting.
5. Make the Ganache: Place the chopped semi-sweet chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Pour the hot cream over the chocolate and let it sit undisturbed for 1 to 2 minutes to soften the chocolate.
6. Mix Ganache: Gently stir the chocolate and cream together until the mixture is smooth and silky. Then stir in the Biscoff cookie butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of sea salt until fully combined.
7. Assemble the Tart: Pour the prepared chocolate ganache filling evenly into the chilled Biscoff crust. Smooth the top with a spatula or an offset spatula.
8. Chill the Tart: Refrigerate the tart for at least 3 hours or until the ganache is completely set and firm.
9. Garnish and Serve: Just before serving, sprinkle with extra crushed Biscoff cookies, add shaved chocolate or curls, and/or a dollop of whipped cream as desired. Slice into wedges using a warm knife for clean cuts and enjoy.

Notes

• Use room temperature heavy cream and cookie butter for a smoother, silkier ganache.
• Do not allow the cream to boil to avoid splitting; warm just to simmering.
• Chill the tart completely before slicing to ensure clean, neat pieces.
• Use a tart pan with a removable bottom for easy and clean tart removal.
• Running a knife under hot water and wiping it before slicing helps to make smooth cuts.
• Store the tart in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
• Freezing can affect ganache texture; if freezing, wrap slices individually and thaw in the refrigerator.
• Feel free to experiment with different chocolates such as dark or white chocolate for variations.
• Add garnishes just before serving for the best presentation and texture.
