Biscoff Blogpost

I feel like i have a "biscoff day" every week.  I don't know what it is with this stuff, but the crunchiness of the spread and the mini cookie bites in it make me crave it daily.  This weekend, it was all I wanted to eat, so I decided to incorporate it into a couple well-known treats.  They both turned out soooo good.  I make the no-bake biscoff cookies version so often because it's my husband's very favorite.  And it takes about seven minutes to throw together...Read at your own risk.

Biscoff No-Bake Cookies

I N G R E D I E N T S

--1 cup granulated sugar

--1/2 cup packed light brown sugar

--1/4 tsp. salt

--1/4 tsp. ground cinnamon

--1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, diced into pieces

--1/2 cup 1% or 2% milk

--1 tsp. vanilla

--3 cups quick oats

--Oh, and 1/2 cup *crunchy* Biscoff cookie spread (duh)

--In a saucepan, combine the two sugars,

--...and the salt, cinnamon, butter and milk and stir over slightly over medium high heat, whisking until the butter has melted.

--Once it has melted, allow it come to a boil for 45 seconds...

--And then quickly pour in the vanilla,

--And then finally the Biscoff!

--Whisk until it all comes together.

--Prepare two cookie sheets with parchment paper.

--Meanwhile, stir in the oats until it's this consistency.

--Using an ice cream scooper, and any size you want, drop the "cookies" onto the parchment paper.

--On a few I added some white chocolate chips to the top, because it was Saturday.

--[These taste best when they have been able to set in the refrigerator.] 

Biscoff Snickerdoodle Cookies

I N G R E D I E N T S

--1 1/2 cups granulated sugar

--1/4 cup (1/2 stick) unsalted butter, softened

--1 tsp. vanilla

--1/2 cup Biscoff spread

--2 3/4 cup flour

--1 tsp. cream of tartar

--1/2 tsp. baking soda

--for the topping--

--2 tbsp. sugar

--2 tsp. cinnamon 

 

--Preheat the oven to 400 degrees.  In the bowl of an electric mixer, combine the sugars, butter, vanilla, eggs, and Biscoff spread and mix until very well blended.

--Exhibit A.

--Add in the dry ingredients (flour, cream of tartar, baking soda, salt) and combine thoroughly until the dough comes together.

--In a small bowl, mix together the cinnamon and sugar and roll the 1-inch dough balls (using a cookie scooper) into the mixture.  

--Place cookies 2 inches apart on an ungreased cookie sheet and bake for 8-10 minutes or until the cookies are set.

Love, Biscoff
