Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups crushed Biscoff cookies – about 20 cookies (155g)
- 1/4 cup salted butter, melted and cooled (56g)
- 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)
Instructions
- Step 1: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C) and line an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper. Set aside.
- Step 2: Mix the crushed Biscoff cookie crumbs with 1/4 cup melted butter until well combined. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form an even crust.
- Step 3: In a large bowl, beat the eggs, granulated sugar, and brown sugar on high speed for about 1 minute until the mixture lightens in color and becomes creamy.
- Step 4: Add the 1/2 cup melted and cooled butter and vanilla extract to the egg mixture. Mix on medium speed until fully combined.
- Step 5: Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder into the wet ingredients.
- Step 6: Gently fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture using a rubber spatula, being careful not to overmix.
- Step 7: Pour the brownie batter evenly over the Biscoff cookie crust and smooth the top.
- Step 8: Warm the Biscoff spread in the microwave for 5 to 10 seconds until soft. Drop spoonfuls of the spread over the batter, then swirl with a butter knife to create a marbled pattern.
- Step 9: Bake for 22 to 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted near the center comes out mostly clean. The ideal baking time may vary by oven, but 23 minutes is a good target.
- Step 10: Remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to cool completely before cutting into squares.
Tips & Variations
- For extra crunch, sprinkle chopped Biscoff cookies on top before baking.
- Use dark cocoa powder for a deeper chocolate flavor.
- Swap the vanilla extract with almond extract for a nutty twist.
- If you prefer a fudgier texture, reduce the flour by a tablespoon.
Storage
Store the brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. For longer storage, refrigerate for up to a week or freeze for up to 3 months. When reheating, warm gently in the microwave for 15-20 seconds to soften the Biscoff swirls without drying out the brownies.

FAQs
Can I use store-bought Biscoff spread or homemade?
Either works well, but store-bought Biscoff spread is recommended for the authentic flavor and smooth texture that this recipe requires.
Why should the eggs be at room temperature?
Room temperature eggs mix more evenly with other ingredients, resulting in a smoother batter and better texture in the finished brownies.

Ingredients
Crust
- 1 1/2 cups crushed Biscoff cookies (about 20 cookies, 155g)
- 1/4 cup salted butter, melted and cooled (56g)
Brownie Batter
- 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 (about 1g)
Topping
- 1/3 cup smooth Biscoff spread (80g)
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare Pan: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line an 8 x 8-inch baking pan with parchment paper and set aside to ensure non-stick baking and easy removal.
- Make the Biscoff Crust: In a bowl, combine the crushed Biscoff cookies with 1/4 cup melted butter. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan with the back of a large spoon to form an even crust layer.
- Mix Eggs and Sugars: Place the eggs, granulated sugar, and brown sugar in a large mixing bowl. Using a hand or stand mixer, beat on high speed for 1 minute until the mixture becomes lighter in color and creamy in texture.
- Add Butter and Vanilla: Reduce mixer speed to medium. Slowly incorporate the 1/2 cup melted butter and 2 teaspoons vanilla extract into the egg and sugar mixture until fully combined.
- Sift Dry Ingredients: Sift together the flour, cocoa powder, and baking powder to ensure a smooth batter and to remove any lumps.
- Combine Dry and Wet Ingredients: Gently fold the sifted dry ingredients into the wet ingredients using a rubber spatula, taking care not to overmix to maintain a tender brownie texture.
- Assemble Brownie Layer: Pour the brownie batter over the prepared Biscoff cookie crust in the baking pan. Spread it evenly with a spatula to create a uniform layer.
- Add Biscoff Swirls: Warm the Biscoff spread briefly in the microwave for 5-10 seconds until slightly softened. Spoon dollops of the spread on top of the brownie batter, then use a butter knife to swirl and create a decorative pattern.
- Bake Brownies: Bake in the preheated oven for 22-25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted comes out mostly clean with a few moist crumbs. Optimal baking time is about 23 minutes but may vary with different ovens.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the brownies from the oven and allow them to cool completely in the pan before cutting into squares, which helps them set and improves sliceability.
Notes
- Ensure that the butter is melted and cooled before mixing to avoid cooking the eggs prematurely.
- Room temperature eggs will blend more evenly for a smooth batter.
- Do not overbake to keep the brownies moist and fudgy; a few moist crumbs on the toothpick are ideal.
- Swirling the Biscoff spread adds beautiful texture and enhanced flavor—feel free to experiment with the swirl patterns.
- The crust can be pressed very firmly to provide a sturdy base for the brownies.
- Use parchment paper for easy removal and clean edges.
