Biscoff Stuffed Cookies

These cookies are stuffed with a full teaspoon of Biscoff and studded with white chocolate chips. They’re great cold, but even better when they’re still warm and gooey inside.

What is Biscoff?

Biscoff is a spiced caramelised cookie spread. It is made with Lotus Biscoff cookies, sometimes called speculoos. The cookies usually come in little packets and are served with your coffee during flights, in offices or at coffee shops. Biscoff spread is available in both smooth or crunchy versions. If you aren’t able to find Biscoff where you are, check for “Cookie Butter”, which is the generic name of the famous spread.

1. Take teaspoons of Biscoff spread and place on a parchment paper covered baking tray or plate. Place in the freezer for at least 1 hour.

2. Place the butter along with the white and brown sugar in a bowl to use with an electric hand mixer or the bowl of a stand mixer. Use the beater attachment to beat until light smooth and creamy.

3. Add in the egg and vanilla and beat again until incorporated.

4. Pour in the flour, bicarb soda, salt and corn starch. Beat in until mixed through and the batter has formed into a dough.

5. Add in the white chocolate chips into the cookie dough. mix well with a spatular until the chocolate pieces are dispersed through the dough.

5. Take 2 tablespoons of dough and roll into balls (or use a 2 tablespoon cookie scoop). Place onto a tray that fits in the fridge. Place the dough balls onto the tray.

6.Remove the Biscoff spread from the freezer. Pick up a cookie dough ball and use your thumb to make a dent in the centre. Place a frozen Biscoff scoop inside and fold the sides of the cookie over it until you can no longer see it. Roll into a ball and place on the tray, continue for all 12 cookies. You can place 6 on each tray or 12 on one tray and split the cookies before baking. Place in the fridge for a minimum of 1 hour.

7. Pre heat oven to 180c/350F. Once the cookies are firm, place them in the preheated oven and bake for 10-12 minutes. The cookies should be soft in the centre and lightly golden on the edges. The centres should be fairly soft as they will continue to cook and set on the baking tray.

8. Cool completely before serving.

Tips for making Biscoff Stuffed Cookies

Freeze your Biscoff ahead of time so they are frozen hard and easier to work with.

Use room temperature ingredients to ensure everything mixes well together. To quickly warm up the egg you can place it in a bowl of hot (not boiling) water for 5 minutes to bring it to room temperature.

Measure flour correctly by fluffing up the flour with your flour scoop before scooping and levelling the flour.

Make sure to keep cookies in the fridge for at least 2 hours, overnight would be better. Alternatively you can keep the cookies in the freezer for an hour, this will mean they are thick, with a soft scrumptious Biscoff centre.

Add extra white chocolate chips (or reserve some) to place on the tops so that you can see all that chocolatey goodness.

Don’t over bake the cookies, they should still be fairly soft in the centre, they will continue to bake and set while cooling. Mine took 12 minutes.

Rotating a circle cutter of a similar size around the cookie will help with shaping them if they’ve baked out of shape.

If the cookies have completely cooled down, warm them in the microwave for 10-15 seconds to have Biscoff Stuffed Lava Cookies, YUM!

Storing cookies

Store in an air tight container at room temperature for 5 days.

Variations

• Use crunchy Biscoff spread for added crunch and texture.
• Add 1/4 cup of crushed Biscoff Cookies to the cookie batter for even more crunch and texture.
• Use chocolate chips instead of white chocolate chips if that’s your preference, or what you have on hand.
