How to Store?
Keep the cookies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. It’s really important that the container is properly sealed so the cookies stay soft and don’t dry out. If you want them slightly warm and gooey again, you can microwave them for a few seconds before serving.
Notes, Tips and Tricks
→ Do not overmix - Once you add the dry ingredients, mix only until everything is just combined. Overmixing develops too much gluten, which can make the cookies tough and cakey instead of soft and chewy.
→ Try not to overbake- These cookies should still look slightly soft in the center when you take them out of the oven. They’ll continue to set as they cool. Overbaking will make them dry and less gooey.
→ Freeze the Biscoff spread for at least 1 hour - Frozen Biscoff spread is much easier to work with.
→ Don’t skip chilling the cookie dough for 1 hour - Chilling firms up the dough, making it easier to handle and helping the cookies hold their shape while baking. It also improves flavor and texture.
→ Store in an airtight container - Keep the cookies in a tightly sealed container to maintain their softness. If left uncovered, they’ll dry out quickly.
→ Use gloves when shaping - Wearing food safe gloves makes it easier to handle the dough and prevents it from sticking to your hands, especially when working with the frozen Biscoff filling.
Frequently asked questions
1. How should I store these cookies?
Keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. Make sure the container is tightly sealed to keep the cookies soft and fresh.
2. Why are my cookies cakey?
Cakey cookies usually mean the dough was overmixed, adding too much air and developing more gluten. It can also happen if you used too much flour.
3. Why are my cookies dry and hard?
This is usually from overbaking or adding too much flour. Remember that cookies continue to bake a little on the hot tray even after you take them out of the oven.
4. Can I make smaller cookies?
Yes you can, but smaller cookies are trickier to fill because there’s less dough to hold the Biscoff spread. Instead of stuffing them, you can bake them plain and top with Biscoff spread after baking.
5. Can I freeze them?
Yes! To freeze raw dough, place shaped cookies on a tray, freeze until solid, then transfer to a freezer bag. Bake straight from frozen, adding 2-3 extra minutes.
7. Can I skip chilling the dough?
No, I do not recommend it. Chilling is important, it firms up the dough, making it easier to handle and helps the cookies keep their shape while baking. If you skip it, the cookies may spread too much and lose their thickness.
8. What’s the best way to crush the Biscoff biscuits?
The easiest way is to use a food processor for fine, even crumbs. If you don’t have one, place the biscuits in a ziplock bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
Ingredients you will need for this recipe
Unsalted butter: You can use salted butter instead, just make sure to reduce the added salt.
Granulated sugar: This gives sweetness and helps the cookies spread a little in the oven.
Dark brown sugar: Brown sugar adds moisture and a slight caramel flavor thanks to the molasses in it. It also makes the cookies softer and chewier.
1 egg + 1 egg yolk: Eggs bind everything together and give structure. The extra yolk adds richness and makes the cookies softer and more tender.
All purpose flour: The main structure of the cookie.
Finely crushed Biscoff cookies: This adds extra Biscoff flavor right into the dough.
Roughly chopped Biscoff cookies: These give little crunchy bites of cookie inside the dough.
Baking powder and Baking soda: The leavening agents.
White chocolate chips: These pair well with the spiced Biscoff flavor.
Salt: To balance out the sweetness and enhance the flavors.
Frozen Biscoff spread: This is the gooey center! Freezing keeps it firm while baking so it stays in the middle instead of melting everywhere.

1. Scoop out 10 teaspoons of Biscoff spread onto a parchment lined chopping board and place it in the freezer for at least one hour.
2. Next prepare the cookie dough.
3. In a small bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and finely crushed Biscoff biscuits. Set aside.
4. In a large bowl combine the softened butter with the granulated sugar and the brown sugar.
5. Add the egg, egg yolk and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth and fluffy.
6. Next, add the dry ingredients and fold everything together until just combined.
7. Lastly, fold in the chocolate chips and roughly chopped Biscoff cookies.
8. Using a medium sized ice cream scoop, portion the dough into 10 equal balls (around 75g each) and place them on a baking tray lined with parchment paper.

10. After chilling, remove the cookie dough from the fridge and the frozen Biscoff balls from the freezer.
11. Preheat the oven to 180°C (conventional) or 160°C (fan-assisted).
12. Take one cookie dough ball, flatten it into a disk, place a frozen Biscoff scoop in the center and wrap the dough around it to seal. Repeat with the remaining dough (I recommend wearing gloves to prevent sticking).
13. Place the cookies onto a large baking tray lined with parchment paper. Make sure to leave space between them, as they will spread during baking.
