Homemade Biscoff Cookies Recipe
Homemade Biscoff Cookies blend warm spices like cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, and cloves into a buttery dough sweetened with granulated and dark brown sugar. After creaming the butter and sugars, dry ingredients are incorporated, and the dough is chilled before rolling out and cutting into rectangular shapes. Baking yields crisp cookies with a spicy, aromatic flavor profile similar to the popular Biscoff cookie.
Ingredients
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon ground nutmeg
- ¼ teaspoon ground ginger
- ¼ teaspoon ground allspice
- ¼ teaspoon cloves ground
- ¼ teaspoon baking powder
- ¼ teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 1 cup butter at room temperature, 8 oz/225 g
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ¼ cup dark brown sugar 1 ½ oz/42 g
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Notes
- Soften butter until it yields an indent when pressed but does not easily squish through for best creaming results.
- You can use a handheld mixer if you don't have a stand mixer, but ensure thorough creaming of butter and sugars before adding dry ingredients.
- Roll dough to 1/4 inch thickness to achieve crisp cookies with a good texture.
- For ice cream sandwiches, roll thicker rounds and pair with vanilla ice cream.
- Adjust baking temperature and time if lacking a convection oven, rotating pans halfway through baking.
