Biscoff Cookie Crust
- 1 1/2 cups crushed Biscoff cookies (about 20 cookies) – 155g
- 1/4 cup salted butter, melted and cooled – 56g
Biscoff Brownies
- 2 large eggs, room temperature – 112g
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar – 100g
- 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar – 100g
- 1/2 cup salted butter, melted and cooled – 113g
- 2 tsp vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste – 8g
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour – 65g
- 1/3 cup unsweetened baking cocoa – 33g
- 1/4 tsp baking powder – >1g
- 1/3 cup smooth Biscoff spread – 80g
- Prepare Pan and Crust: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8×8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving some overhang for easy removal later. In a bowl, mix the crushed Biscoff cookies with melted butter until combined. Press this mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form the crust.
- Mix Eggs and Sugars: In a large bowl, add the eggs, granulated sugar, and light brown sugar. Using a hand or stand mixer, beat on high speed for 1 minute until the mixture lightens in color and becomes creamy.
- Add Butter and Vanilla: With the mixer on medium speed, add the melted and cooled butter and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
- Sift Dry Ingredients: Sift together the all-purpose flour, unsweetened cocoa powder, and baking powder. This helps avoid lumps and aerates the dry ingredients.
- Combine Batter: Gently fold the sifted dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a rubber spatula until just combined, taking care not to overmix.
- Layer Brownie Batter: Pour the brownie batter over the Biscoff crust in the pan. Use a spatula or the back of a spoon to spread it out evenly.
- Add Biscoff Swirl: Warm the Biscoff spread in the microwave for 5-10 seconds to soften it. Spoon it in dollops atop the brownie batter, then use a butter knife to swirl the spread into a pretty pattern through the batter.
- Bake: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for 22-25 minutes. Check with a toothpick inserted into the center; it should come out mostly clean with just a few moist crumbs. Adjust baking time within this range depending on your oven.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to cool completely in the pan before slicing. For cleaner slices, chill the brownies and use a warm, sharp knife to cut.
Notes
- Store brownies at room temperature in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Freeze uncut brownies for up to two months. Freeze first on a sheet pan, then wrap tightly with plastic wrap and foil.
- For easier slicing, chill brownies before cutting and use a warm, sharp knife.
- You can double the recipe and bake in a 9×13-inch pan at 350°F for 25-30 minutes; brownies will be thicker but equally delicious.
- Use room temperature ingredients for better mixing and texture.
- Baking in a metal pan is recommended; if using glass, reduce oven temperature to 325°F and bake longer.
- To make eggless brownies, substitute 2 flaxseed eggs.
- Swirling the Biscoff spread lightly helps maintain a visible pattern without blending entirely into the batter.
