Why You’ll Love This Recipe

This dessert is easy, oven-free, and incredibly rich in flavor. It can be made ahead, slices neatly, and appeals to both chocolate and Biscoff lovers alike. It is perfect for entertaining or special occasions.

Ingredients

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

Chocolate digestive biscuits form the base of the tart. When crushed and combined with butter, they create a firm, flavorful crust.

Unsalted butter binds the biscuit crumbs together and adds richness to the base.

Dark chocolate provides depth and structure to the filling. It balances the sweetness of the Biscoff topping.

Heavy cream creates a smooth, luxurious ganache filling when combined with melted chocolate.

Powdered sugar lightly sweetens the filling without making it heavy.

Biscoff spread is the star topping of the tart. Its creamy texture and spiced caramel flavor elevate the dessert.

Vanilla extract enhances the chocolate flavor and adds warmth.

Salt sharpens the sweetness and balances the richness of the filling.

Directions

Begin by crushing the biscuits into fine crumbs and mixing them with melted butter until evenly coated. Press the mixture firmly into the base and sides of a tart tin and refrigerate until set. For the filling, heat the cream gently until just steaming, then pour it over the chopped chocolate. Let it sit briefly before stirring until smooth. Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and salt, mixing until fully incorporated. Pour the chocolate filling into the chilled crust and smooth the surface. Refrigerate until firm. Warm the Biscoff spread slightly until pourable, then spread it evenly over the set chocolate layer. Chill again until fully set before slicing and serving.

Variations and Customizations

No-Bake Chocolate Biscoff Tart adapts beautifully to different preferences. Milk chocolate can replace dark chocolate for a sweeter filling, though the tart will be softer. A layer of crushed Biscoff biscuits can be sprinkled between the chocolate and Biscoff topping for added texture. I have also tested a version with a thin layer of whipped cream on top, which lightens the richness and adds visual appeal. For a more intense flavor, a small amount of espresso powder can be added to the chocolate filling. Gluten-free biscuits work well for the base, making this dessert suitable for more dietary needs without sacrificing structure or flavor.
