Why I love this recipe

  • 2 Ingredients. All you need is Biscoff spread and self-rising flour. 
  • No fancy mixers or gadgets. Unlike other cookie recipes, this one requires no mixers or other kitchen tools to make—just one bowl. 
  • Ready in 10 minutes. There’s no chill time or multiple steps needed. 
  • Diet-friendly. Not everyone knows this, but Biscoff cookie spread is vegan, and since there’s no dairy or eggs in these cookies, the cookies are vegan, too!
  • Perfect any time of day. It’s the best companion to my morning cup of coffee or as a late-night treat!

Ingredients needed

  • Lotus Biscoff spread. The starring ingredient. Make sure to get smooth cookie butter and not the crunchy kind. 
  • Self-rising flour. I made my own with all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt, but you can buy it at most grocery stores. Use gluten-free self-rising flour if needed. 
  • Chocolate chips. Optional, but highly recommended! 

How to make Biscoff cookies

I’ve included step-by-step photos below to make this recipe easy to follow at home. For the full printable recipe instructions and ingredient quantities, scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of this post.

Step 2- Bake. Make 12 balls of cookie dough and place them on the lined sheet. Bake the cookies for 10-12 minutes or until they begin to turn golden around the edges. Let them cool on a wire rack. 

Arman’s recipe tips

  • Try not to overbake the cookies. They’ll continue to cook as they cool down, so take them out as soon as the edges turn golden and begin to pull away from the baking sheet. 
  • These cookies have the texture of shortbread with a crunchy bite. If you prefer soft and chewy cookies, make my cookie butter cookies instead. 
  • Enhance the flavor of the cookie dough. Fold in 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract or top the cookies with brown sugar right before baking. 
  • Play around with different mix-ins, like candy buttons, chopped nuts, white chocolate chips, or drizzle warm cookie butter on top. 

Storage instructions

To store: Leftover cookies will keep well at room temperature, covered in an airtight container, for up to 1 week. If you’d like them to keep longer, store them in the refrigerator. 

To freeze: Place the cooled, baked cookies in a ziplock bag and store them in the freezer for up to 6 months. Let them thaw overnight in the fridge.

Frequently asked questions

What flavor is a Biscoff cookie?

The key flavors you’ll notice in a Biscoff cookie are spices like allspice, ginger, and nutmeg, along with delicate caramel notes. 

Is Biscoff like peanut butter?

Texture-wise, Biscoff and smooth peanut butter are almost identical. However, flavor-wise and nutritionally, they are vastly different. Biscoff has a unique taste and is both sweeter and creamier, with less protein.

    You know why will I try this one? Because finally I found out in my Country (Croatia) Biscoff is actually “Lotus” cookies. I thought we dont have Biscoff but we do! Amazing!
