Ingredients

(Tip: You can find the complete list of ingredients and their measurements in the recipe card below.)

Biscoff biscuits form the base of the tart. Their caramelized flavor and crisp texture create a sturdy crust that pairs beautifully with chocolate.

Unsalted butter binds the biscuit crumbs together and adds richness to the crust, ensuring it holds its shape once set.

Dark chocolate provides depth and intensity. Using good-quality chocolate results in a smoother, more flavorful filling.

Heavy cream creates a silky, luxurious texture in the chocolate filling. It softens the chocolate and gives the tart its signature smoothness.

Biscoff spread adds warmth and sweetness to the filling. Its spiced caramel notes complement the chocolate without overpowering it.

Powdered sugar lightly sweetens the filling and ensures a smooth consistency.

Vanilla extract enhances both the chocolate and Biscoff flavors with subtle warmth.

Salt balances sweetness and sharpens the overall flavor profile.

Directions

Begin by crushing the Biscoff biscuits into fine crumbs and mixing them with melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the base and sides of a tart pan, then chill until set.

Heat the heavy cream until just beginning to steam. Pour it over the chopped dark chocolate and allow it to sit briefly before stirring until smooth and glossy.

Gently warm the Biscoff spread until pourable, then stir it into the chocolate mixture along with powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until fully combined and silky.

Pour the filling into the prepared crust and smooth the surface. Chill the tart for several hours until firm and sliceable.

Allow the tart to sit at room temperature briefly before serving for the best texture and flavor.

Variations and Customizations

This chocolate Biscoff tart is versatile and easy to adapt. For a milk chocolate version, substitute part of the dark chocolate with milk chocolate for a sweeter, softer flavor.

You can add a thin layer of Biscoff spread directly over the crust before adding the chocolate filling for a more pronounced caramelized note. I tried this variation and found it added an extra layer of indulgence without overpowering the tart.

For texture contrast, sprinkle crushed Biscoff biscuits or chopped nuts over the top before chilling. Hazelnuts or almonds pair particularly well with chocolate.

A touch of espresso powder mixed into the chocolate filling enhances depth and intensifies the chocolate flavor without adding bitterness.

For a lighter finish, serve with lightly whipped cream or fresh berries, which balance the richness of the tart beautifully.
