Decadent Christmas Chocolate Biscoff Tart

Decadent Christmas Chocolate Biscoff Tart

The Decadent Christmas Chocolate Biscoff Tart is a rich and flavorful holiday dessert combining smooth dark chocolate ganache with a spiced caramel Biscoff cookie crust. This festive tart delivers an irresistible balance of creamy chocolate and unique Biscoff spice, perfect for Christmas gatherings or cozy celebrations.

  • Total Time: 3 to 4 hours (including chilling)
  • Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients

Crust Ingredients

  • Biscoff cookies: 200g, crushed
  • Unsalted butter: 100g, melted

Ganache Filling Ingredients

  • Dark chocolate: 200g, chopped
  • Heavy cream: 150ml
  • Brown sugar: 50g
  • Eggs: 2, room temperature
  • Vanilla extract: 1 tsp
  • Sea salt: pinch

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Biscoff Crust: Crush the Biscoff cookies finely until they resemble coarse crumbs. Melt the unsalted butter and mix with the crushed cookies until fully combined. Press the mixture firmly into the base and sides of a tart pan to form an even crust. Chill in the refrigerator to set while preparing the filling.
  2. Make the Chocolate Ganache Filling: Gently heat the heavy cream and brown sugar in a saucepan until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is warm. Pour this warm mixture over the chopped dark chocolate in a heatproof bowl. Let sit for a few minutes, then stir until smooth and glossy. Whisk in the eggs and vanilla extract until the filling is silky and fully combined.
  3. Assemble and Bake: Pour the chocolate ganache filling evenly over the chilled Biscoff crust. Bake the tart at a moderate temperature (around 325°F / 160°C) until the filling is just set but still slightly wobbly in the center, ensuring a creamy texture. Allow to cool completely before refrigerating to firm up.
  4. Finishing Touches: Once chilled, garnish the tart with a sprinkle of sea salt, extra crushed Biscoff crumbs, or festive sprinkles. Serve chilled or at room temperature to best enjoy the flavor profile.

Notes

  • Use good-quality dark chocolate with at least 60% cocoa for best flavor.
  • Do not overbake; the ganache should remain slightly jiggly for a creamy texture.
  • Chill the tart for several hours or overnight for ideal firmness and flavor development.
  • Crush Biscoff cookies evenly to ensure a consistent crust texture.
  • Bring eggs and cream to room temperature before mixing to avoid curdling.
