Ingredients

You’ll need these ingredients to whip up your Biscoff Brownies:

For the Brownie Base:

• 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup brown sugar
• 3/4 cup cocoa powder
• 2 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 teaspoon salt

For the Biscoff Swirl:

• 1/2 cup Biscoff spread, warmed slightly for easy swirling
• 1/3 cup crushed Biscoff cookies

Ingredient Highlights

• Cocoa Powder: Provides that deep, chocolatey flavor every brownie needs.
• Biscoff Spread: The star ingredient, adding creamy, spiced goodness.
• Biscoff Cookies: For added crunch and a boost of the signature Biscoff flavor.

Step-by-Step Instructions

Make the Brownie Base

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang for easy removal.
2. Melt the Butter: In a medium saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Remove from heat and stir in granulated sugar, brown sugar, and cocoa powder until smooth.
3. Add Wet Ingredients: Beat in the eggs, one at a time, followed by the vanilla extract.
4. Mix in Dry Ingredients: Gently fold in the flour and salt until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can make the brownies tough.

Assemble the Biscoff Swirl

1. Pour the Batter: Spread the brownie batter evenly into the prepared baking pan.
2. Add the Biscoff: Drizzle the warmed Biscoff spread over the brownie batter. Use a knife or skewer to create swirls.
3. Sprinkle with Cookies: Scatter the crushed Biscoff cookies on top for added texture and flavor.

Bake and Cool

1. Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 30-35 minutes. The brownies should be set around the edges but slightly gooey in the center.
2. Cool: Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan before lifting them out using the parchment overhang.

How to Serve

Serving ideas for Biscoff Brownies to make them even more special:

• Classic: Slice into squares and enjoy as-is.
• With Ice Cream: Serve warm brownies with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for a decadent treat.
• Drizzled with Chocolate: Add an extra layer of indulgence by drizzling melted chocolate over the top.
• Dust with Powdered Sugar: For a simple, elegant touch.
• Brownie Sundae: Layer brownie chunks with whipped cream, caramel sauce, and nuts in a glass.
• Gift-Wrapped: Wrap brownies individually in parchment paper and tie with a ribbon for a thoughtful homemade gift.

Additional Tips

Here are some tips to make your Biscoff Brownies perfect every time:

1. Don’t Overbake: The key to fudgy brownies is to take them out of the oven when they’re still slightly gooey in the center.
2. Use Room-Temperature Ingredients: This helps everything mix together smoothly.
3. Warm the Biscoff Spread: Slightly warming the spread makes it easier to swirl into the batter.
4. Experiment with Swirls: Try different patterns with the Biscoff swirl for a visually stunning result.
5. Store Properly: Keep brownies in an airtight container to maintain their freshness.
6. Freeze for Later: These brownies freeze well—wrap them tightly and store for up to three months.

• Can I use homemade Biscoff spread?
  Yes! Homemade Biscoff spread works beautifully in this recipe.
• How do I know when the brownies are done?
  Look for slightly set edges and a gooey center. A toothpick inserted should come out with moist crumbs, not batter.
• What’s the best way to cut brownies cleanly?
  Use a sharp knife and wipe it clean between cuts for perfect squares.
• Can I double the recipe?
• Absolutely! Use a 9×13-inch pan if you double the recipe. Adjust the baking time to 40-45 minutes, keeping an eye on the center for doneness.

• If Biscoff spread is unavailable, you can substitute it with cookie butter or another spiced spread. While the flavor may vary slightly, the result will still be delicious.

• To reheat, pop a brownie in the microwave for 10-15 seconds. It will soften and become perfectly gooey again.
• Can I use dark chocolate instead of cocoa powder?
• Yes, but it requires a slight adjustment. Replace the butter and cocoa powder with 6 ounces of melted dark chocolate for a richer flavor.
• How do I prevent brownies from sticking to the pan?
• Lining your pan with parchment paper is key. Leave some overhang to lift the brownies out easily after cooling.
