Ingredients
- 3/4 cup Biscoff cookie butter
- 1/2 cup light or dark brown sugar (packed)
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 large egg yolk
- 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
- 10 tablespoons unsalted butter
- 2/3 cup + 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup unsweetened Dutch cocoa powder
- 2/3 cup + 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (see notes below on measuring)
- 1 teaspoon espresso powder
- 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
- 4-5 Biscoff cookies (for the top)
- Extra cookie butter (for the top)
Directions
Press a large piece of parchment paper into a square metal 8×8 baking pan and crease the bottom edges so you can see the outline of the size of the pan. Evenly spread the cookie butter inside the creased edges, then chill it in the freezer until firm. I recommend checking to make sure the layer is completely firm before starting the batter! Line the baking pan with parchment paper to hang off all four sides for easy removal. Then preheat the oven to 350 F/180 C.
Whisk together the sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined. Melt the butter and chocolate chips together until smooth. Then whisk in the cocoa powder. Whisk the melted chocolate mixture into the egg mixture until just combined. Fold in the flour, espresso powder, and salt until just combined.
Pour half of the brownie batter into the pan and spread it to the edges (about 340 grams). Place the frozen cookie butter square on top of the batter, peeling the parchment paper off the top. Pour the rest of the batter on top and spread it evenly to the edges. Break up the Biscoff cookies into pieces and press them on top of the batter. Warm 2 tablespoons of cookie butter in the microwave for 15-20 seconds (until runny) and drizzle it over the top.
Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out covered in a few moist crumbs. Let the pan cool completely on a wire rack before removing. You can drizzle more cookie butter on top before cutting, then enjoy! Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days. They can be frozen after baking in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to 1 month.
How to Serve Biscoff Brownies
Cut the brownies into squares and serve them warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream. Alternatively, you can pair them with a cup of coffee for an afternoon treat.
How to Store Biscoff Brownies
To keep your brownies fresh, store them in an airtight container at room temperature. For longer storage, place them in the freezer, and they will last for up to one month.
Tips to Make Biscoff Brownies
Make sure the cookie butter layer is fully frozen before adding the brownie batter on top for the best results. Use high-quality chocolate chips for a richer flavor. If you want a crunch, consider adding nuts to the brownie batter.
Variations
You can add a swirl of cream cheese to the batter for a tangy flavor. For a more decadent treat, fold in caramel chips along with the chocolate chips. Another variation is to replace Biscoff cookie butter with Nutella for a different taste.
FAQs
Can I use a different type of cookie butter? Yes, any cookie butter will work, though the flavor may vary slightly.
Can I make these brownies gluten-free? Yes, substitute regular flour with a gluten-free blend.
How can I make these brownies even more chocolatey? Add additional chocolate chips or cocoa powder to the batter for a richer taste.
