What is a Ripple Cake?

A ripple cake is a common Australian dessert that is made using Chocolate Ripple cookies (made by the Arnott’s company) and sweetened cream. The cookies are sandwiched together with cream in a long log shape, then completely covered in more cream. The log is left for a few hours, which causes the cookies to soak up the cream and soften. It is then sliced diagonally which makes the soaked cookies look like they magically changed direction.

What is Biscoff?

Biscoff is a delicious peanut butter like spread made from lotus biscoff cookies. It comes in both smooth and crunchy versions. It is also referred to as cookie butter or speculoos spread. Biscoff spread can be found in a general grocery store, but if you have trouble finding it there, look out for it at speciality grocery stores or it can be purchased online. It can also be found under the generic name of cookie butter spread.

Whip the cream with the sugar until they form soft peaks. Whip gently a little further until it forms firmer peaks. Set aside.

Unwrap the Lotus cookies and spread some cream onto the serving platter. Spread a heaped teaspoon of cream onto each cookie and stand them upright onto the base of cream.

Continue to add cream to the cookies and cookies to the plate until the bag is finished. Cover the entire cake in cream and smooth it out as best you can.

Place in the fridge to soak and soften for 6 hours or overnight.
