Equipment

  • Baking Tray
  • Parchment Paper
  • Ice cream/cookie scoop or spoon
  • Microwave-safe bowl
  • Measuring Cups & Spoons

Ingredients

  • 1 ¼ cups puffed quinoa (could also use puffed rice)
  • ½ cup Biscoff cookie butter or speculoo spread, smooth or crunchy. I used crunchy for added crunch.
  • 6 Biscoff cookies roughly crushed into small pieces (about ½ cup total)
  • 1 cup dark or milk chocolate chips dairy-free if needed
  • Christmas sprinkles for topping

Instructions

Prep your tray

  • Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside to drop your candy clusters onto.

Crush the Biscoff cookies

  • Add your cookies to a zip-top bag and crush them using a mallet, rolling pin, or anything heavy. Aim for pea-sized chunks, not crumbs. You want crunchy pieces throughout.

Melt the chocolate

  • Add the chocolate chips to a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave in 20–30 second intervals, stirring between each until completely smooth and glossy.

Melt the Biscoff/speculoo spread

  • Add the Biscoff or speculoo spread to a microwave-safe bowl and microwave for 20–30 seconds to melt slightly.

Mix together

  • Stir the Biscoff cookie butter, melted chocolate, puffed quinoa and mix until everything is coated. Fold in the crushed Biscoff cookies last so they stay crunchy.

Scoop & sprinkle

  • Use a small cookie scoop to portion the mixture onto your lined tray. While soft, top each cluster with Christmas sprinkles.
