Ingredients

Scale

Base and Toppings

  • 3/4 cup Biscoff cookie butter
  • 4–5 Biscoff cookies, for the top
  • Extra cookie butter, for drizzling on top

Sugars and Eggs

  • 1/2 cup light or dark brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 large egg yolk
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract

Chocolate and Fat

  • 10 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 2/3 cup + 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips (total 10 2/3 tablespoons)
  • 1/4 cup unsweetened Dutch cocoa powder

Dry Ingredients

  • 2/3 cup + 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (about 90 g)
  • 1 teaspoon espresso powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Pan and Cookie Butter Layer: Press a large piece of parchment paper into an 8×8 inch square metal baking pan, creasing the bottom edges so the parchment hangs over the sides for easy removal. Evenly spread 3/4 cup (200 g) of Biscoff cookie butter inside the creased edges in the pan and chill in the freezer until the layer is completely firm. This may take some time, so check to ensure firmness before proceeding.
  2. Preheat Oven and Mix Wet Ingredients: Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C). In a bowl, whisk together 1/2 cup light or dark brown sugar, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, 2 large eggs, 1 large egg yolk, and 1 tablespoon vanilla extract until well combined and slightly thickened.
  3. Melt Butter and Chocolate: Melt 10 tablespoons (140 g) unsalted butter with 2/3 cup + 1/4 cup (156 g) semi-sweet chocolate chips together until smooth. Whisk in 1/4 cup (25 g) unsweetened Dutch cocoa powder until fully incorporated. Then gradually whisk this chocolate mixture into the egg mixture until just combined.
  4. Add Dry Ingredients: Gently fold in 2/3 cup + 1 tablespoon (90 g) all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon espresso powder, and 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt until just combined. Avoid overmixing to keep the brownies tender.
  5. Assemble the Brownies: Pour half of the brownie batter (about 340 grams) into the prepared pan, spreading evenly to the edges. Remove the frozen cookie butter layer from the freezer, peel off the parchment paper from the top, and carefully place it on top of the batter in the pan. Pour the remaining batter over the cookie butter layer and spread evenly.
  6. Add Cookie Topping and Drizzle: Break 4-5 Biscoff cookies into pieces and press them gently onto the top of the batter. Warm about 2 tablespoons of additional cookie butter in the microwave for 15-20 seconds until runny, then drizzle it generously over the top of the cookies and batter.
  7. Bake the Brownies: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs but no wet batter. Avoid overbaking for fudgy brownies.
  8. Cool and Serve: Let the brownies cool completely in the pan on a wire rack before removing via the parchment paper overhang. Drizzle more warmed cookie butter on top if desired before slicing into squares and serving.
  9. Storage: Store leftover brownies in an airtight container at room temperature for 2-3 days. For longer storage, freeze in an airtight container or freezer bag for up to 1 month.

Notes

  • Measure your flour properly using the spoon-level method or a kitchen scale to avoid using too much flour, which can make brownies dry.
  • Wait until brownies are completely cool before cutting. For clean cuts, run a sharp knife under hot water and wipe dry between cuts.
  • Use parchment paper hanging over the sides of the pan for easy brownie removal.
  • The frozen cookie butter layer creates a unique texture that you must ensure is fully firm to keep the layers distinct during baking.
  • Do not overbake to maintain fudgy brownies with gooey centers.
