FAQ
Can I use a different type of cookie instead of Biscoff?
Absolutely! While Biscoff adds that signature spiced flavor, you can swap in shortbread, graham crackers, or even ginger snaps for a similar vibe.
Can I use regular green candy melts instead of the tinted ones?
Yes! You can use green candy melts – just keep in mind that the shade of green will be a bit darker and not as bright.
What type of food coloring works best with candy melts?
Oil-based or candy-specific gel food coloring works best, as water-based colors can cause the candy melts to seize or become grainy.
How should I store these Grinch treats?
Keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week. If it’s warm, store them in the fridge so the candy coating doesn’t melt.
Can I make these ahead of time?
Yes! These cookies hold up beautifully when made a few days in advance—just be sure they’re fully set and stored properly to keep that festive crunch.
Tips & Tricks
- If you’re using oil-based food coloring, keep in mind that it thins out the candy and takes extra time to harden.
- Get creative with toppings: Add a sprinkle of edible glitter or crushed candy canes for extra holiday sparkle.
- Work in batches: Melt your candy coating in small amounts so it stays warm and easy to work with.
- If the piping bag becomes too hot to hold, wear an oven mitt or hold with a paper towel.
So go ahead and channel your inner Grinch—just the fun, cookie-loving version! These Biscoff treats are proof that even the grumpiest holiday heart can be melted with a little sweetness and sparkle. Whether you’re sharing them with friends or hoarding them like Christmas loot, they’re guaranteed to spread cheer (and maybe a few crumbs).
