Ingredients
Cake:
- 2 ½ cups (310 g) all-purpose flour
- 2 ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 1 cup (226 g) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 ½ cups (300 g) granulated sugar
- 4 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup (120 ml) milk
- ½ cup (120 g) Biscoff cookie butter
Frosting:
- 1 cup (226 g) unsalted butter, softened
- 1 cup (240 g) Biscoff cookie butter
- 3 cups (360 g) powdered sugar
- 2–3 tbsp (30–45 ml) milk (as needed for consistency)
Decoration:
- Crushed Biscoff cookies
- Additional melted Biscoff cookie butter
Instructions
- Preheat and Prepare: Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease and line two 8-inch (20 cm) round cake pans.
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a medium bowl, whisk together flour, baking powder, and salt.
- Cream Butter and Sugar: In a large bowl, cream butter and sugar until light and fluffy. Add eggs one at a time, mixing well. Stir in vanilla extract.
- Incorporate Cookie Butter: Mix in Biscoff cookie butter until smooth.
- Combine and Mix: Alternate adding the dry ingredients and milk to the wet mixture, starting and ending with the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
- Bake: Divide batter evenly between the prepared pans. Bake for 25–30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean. Let cakes cool completely.
- Prepare Frosting: Beat butter and Biscoff cookie butter until creamy. Gradually add powdered sugar and mix until fluffy. Add milk, a tablespoon at a time, until spreadable consistency is achieved.
- Assemble the Cake: Place one cake layer on a plate, spread frosting on top, then add the second layer. Frost the top and sides of the cake.
- Decorate: Sprinkle with crushed Biscoff cookies and drizzle melted cookie butter over the top.
- Serve: Chill the cake slightly, then bring it to room temperature before serving.
Notes
- For extra flavor, you can add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg to the cake batter.
- Make sure the cake is completely cool before frosting to prevent melting.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
