How to Make Homemade Biscoff Biscuits

PIN IT

1. Cream butter & sugars
   In a large bowl, cream the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar until light and fluffy. Stir in molasses and vanilla—your kitchen will smell like cozy heaven!
2. Sift dry ingredients
   Whisk together flour, cornstarch, baking soda, salt, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and cloves. The cornstarch ensures that perfect melt-in-your-mouth texture.
3. Combine
   Gradually beat the dry mix into the creamed mixture, just until it forms a dough.
4. Chill dough (optional)
   For cleaner edges, wrap and chill the dough for 30 minutes.
5. Shape cookies
   Preheat oven to 350 °F (175 °C). Roll dough out on lightly floured surface to about ¼″ thickness. Use cookie cutters, a fluted wheel, or slice into rectangles like the classic Biscoff.
6. Bake
   Place cookies 2″ apart on parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 10–12 minutes until edges are golden. They’ll crisp while cooling—authentic crunch awaits!
7. Cool & enjoy
   Allow biscuits to cool completely on the sheet before transferring to a wire rack. Enjoy with coffee, tea, or as a delicious gift.

What to Serve with Homemade Biscoff Biscuits

• A steaming mug of cappuccino or golden milk
• Vanilla ice cream for a classic combo
• A cheese board (especially creamy Brie or mascarpone)
• Spread with cookie butter and sandwich for a decadent treat

Tips for Making It Perfect

• Use room-temperature butter—essential for proper creaming
• Don’t skip chilling; it helps cookies retain their sweet, neat shapes
• Line your pan with parchment to prevent sticking and ease cleanup
• Let cookies cool fully to crispen—they may seem soft at first

Storage Instructions

• Store in an airtight container at room temp for up to 7 days
• Freeze baked biscuits (well-wrapped) for up to 3 months
• Reheat frozen biscuits in a 300 °F oven for a few minutes to regain crisp

General Information

PIN IT

Biscoff is inspired by Belgian speculoos—a traditional spiced shortbread with roots in Saint Nicholas day celebrations. Lotus Biscoff popularized it worldwide, but homemade ones bring even more aroma and love.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I skip molasses?
You can—but it adds that caramel complexity. Use golden syrup instead for a milder flavor.

Why cornstarch?
It keeps cookies tender, giving that ideal melt-in-your-mouth texture.

Can I use dark brown sugar only?
Yes, it works—but the molasses + granulated combo balances sweetness and caramel notes.

Will baking soda flatten cookies too much?
They spread just right—thin, crisp edges with soft centers. Chill dough for sharper shapes.

Are they gluten-free?
Not as written. Substitute a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend to adapt.
