Delightful Speculoos balls filled with creamy peanut butter and coated in rich chocolate, perfect for the festive season.

  • Total Time: 45 minutes
  • Yield: 20 servings 1x

Ingredients

Scale
  • 250 g Gewürz-Spekulatius cookies
  • 200 g peanut butter (smooth)
  • 200 g dark chocolate
  • 5 g coconut fat
  • Zest of one organic orange
  • Coarse sea salt for sprinkling

Instructions

  1. Finely grind the Gewürz-Spekulatius cookies in a food processor until they resemble a fine flour.
  2. Add peanut butter and the zest of one organic orange to the bowl, knead until achieving a sandy and somewhat oily dough.
  3. Take small portions (about 10 g each) and roll them into round balls.
  4. Refrigerate the balls for at least one hour to set.
  5. Roll the chilled balls between your palms to smooth the surface.
  6. Melt dark chocolate with coconut fat in a water bath until glossy and fully melted.
  7. Dip each ball into the melted chocolate, allowing excess to drip off, then place on a wire rack and sprinkle with coarse sea salt.
  8. Let chocolates cool completely, ideally overnight, until the coating hardens.
  9. Store finished chocolates in small paper cases in an airtight container in the fridge.

Notes

For best results, use high-quality chocolate and fresh organic oranges. Can customize with different butters or add spices.
