Biscoff Blondies

I absolutely love Biscoff anything. Since Iโ€™ve been making all sorts of different blondie variations, I figured why not make a biscoff one. With pieces of biscoff cookie baked into a thick and rich batter, topped with biscoff ganache. Absolute perfection in every level.

Youโ€™re going to love these blondies becauseโ€ฆ

Theyโ€™re soft, rich, and full of that signature Biscoff flavor.

  • The crumb is dense and gooey without being underbaked
  • White chocolate keeps the texture soft and stable
  • Biscoff cookies melt slightly into the batter
  • The ganache adds a creamy, spiced finish
  • They slice cleanly but stay soft in the center

Key Ingredients & Why I Use Them

White chocolate: This is the base I keep coming back to across all my blondie variationsโ€”whether itโ€™s these, my cookies and cream blondies, or even my almond croissant blondies. It gives structure without making them dry.

Butter: Melted with the chocolate, it creates a rich base and helps the blondies stay soft.

Granulated sugar: Keeps the texture chewy with slightly crisp edges.

Eggs + extra yolk: The extra yolk is something Iโ€™ve kept consistent across all my blondie recipes, including my coffee blondies. Itโ€™s what gives that soft, dense texture.

Biscoff cookies: I chop them into small pieces so they distribute evenly. They soften as they bake and add flavor throughout.

Biscoff butter: Used in the ganache, it adds that creamy, spiced flavor without overwhelming the texture.

How to make these blondies

As with any of my biscoff recipes like Biscoff Cheesecake, or Biscoff Cake, here are the step-by-step instructions. Follow along with me!

Step 1: Prep and melt the butter with the chocolate

Preheat the oven to 350ยบF (or 325ยบF if your oven runs hot or is convection/gas). Line an 8ร—8-inch metal pan with parchment paper. I donโ€™t use glass hereโ€”it tends to bake unevenly.

Next, I combine the butter, biscoff paste, and white chocolate in a bowl and melt them together in the microwave in 15โ€“30 second increments, stirring in between. You can also use a double boiler. I just make sure everything is smooth before moving on.

Step 2: Add the sugar

I whisk in the sugar. The mixture might look slightly separatedโ€”thatโ€™s normal.

Step 3: Add the eggs and vanilla

I add the eggs one at a time, whisking between each addition. Then I add the extra yolk and vanilla.

This is when the batter becomes smooth and glossy.

Step 4: Add the dry ingredients

I fold in the flour and salt using a spatula. I stop mixing as soon as the flour disappearsโ€”overmixing is what makes blondies cakey instead of dense.

Step 5: Fold in the cookies

Add the chopped Biscoff cookies and gently fold them in.

Step 6: Bake & cool

Spread the batter evenly in the pan and bake for about 35 minutes. I look for set edges and a top that no longer looks wet. A toothpick should come out without raw batter, but a few moist crumbs are perfect.

If the top browns too quickly, I loosely cover it with foil.

Let the blondies cool before adding the ganache. This helps everything set properly.

Step 7: Make the Biscoff ganache

Heat the heavy cream and Biscoff butter together until very hot (about 175ยบF, just before boiling).

Pour over the chopped white chocolate and let sit for 1 minute. Then whisk until smooth.

If the ganache is too thick, I add a bit of warm cream, a teaspoon at a time.

After about 10 minutes, it should be thick enough to spread.

Step 8: Drizzle over the blondies

Pour the Biscoff ganache over the cooled blondies and sprinkle with cookie crumbs.

Let it set for about 30 minutes before devouring!

Storage / Make Ahead

You can store these in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days, or in the fridge for up to 6 days. I prefer them at room temperature, so I let them sit out for about 20 minutes before serving.

They also freeze well for up to 2 months.

Baking Tips

After working through a lot of blondie variations recently, these are the things that consistently matter most:

  • Use a metal pan โ€“ glass gives uneven results
  • Donโ€™t overmix after adding flour
  • Watch the bake time closely
  • Let them cool before adding ganache

Most important: I always pull blondies when the center is just set. Thatโ€™s been true across every version Iโ€™ve tested.

Variations

Once you have this base, you can take it in a few different directionsโ€”Iโ€™ve been doing this a lot lately.

  • Skip the ganache for a simpler version
  • Add white chocolate chunks for extra texture
  • Add a pinch of espresso powder (similar to what I do in my coffee blondies)

FAQ

Can I make these ahead of time?

Yes, and I usually do. These actually improve after a few hours once the ganache has fully set. I often make them the day before and let them sit covered at room temperature.

Why did my blondies turn out dry or cakey?

This almost always comes down to overbaking or overmixing. I stop mixing as soon as the flour disappears, and I pull them from the oven when the center is just set. They should still feel slightly soft in the middleโ€”theyโ€™ll firm up as they cool.

How do I know when theyโ€™re done baking?

I look for set edges and a top that no longer looks wet. A toothpick should come out without raw batter, but a few moist crumbs are exactly what you want. If it comes out completely clean, theyโ€™re probably overbaked.

Can I skip the ganache?

Yes. Iโ€™ve made these without the ganache and theyโ€™re still great. The ganache adds another layer of flavor and texture, but the blondie base stands on its own.

More Recipes You Might Like

If you like baking with Biscoff, you might also enjoy my Biscoff chocolate cheesecake for something rich and layered, my Biscoff cake for a lighter option, or my Biscoff brownies if you want something a bit more chocolate-forward. And if youโ€™re in a blondie phase like Iโ€™ve been lately, my pistachio blondies, almond croissant blondies, and cinnamon roll blondies all use a similar base with completely different flavor profiles.

Ingredients
 

  • 1ยผ cup chopped white chocolate 212 g
  • ยพ cup Biscoff butter
  • ยฝ cup unsalted butter 113 g
  • ยพ cup white granulated sugar 150 g
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 large yolk
  • 2 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour 255 g
  • ยผ tsp salt
  • 10 filled Biscoff cookies chopped small (100g) 100 g
Biscoff Ganache
  • ยพ cup white chocolate, chopped 120g
  • โ…“ cup heavy cream
  • 2 tbsp Biscoff butter
  • 5-6 crumbled Biscoff cookies

Instructions
 

  • Pre-heat the oven to 350ยบF. If your oven runs hot, or if itโ€™s convection or gas, use 325ยบF instead. Grease and line a 8ร—8โ€ square pan with parchment paper. Donโ€™t use a glass pan.
  • To make the batter, mix the unsalted butter, Biscoff butter, and white chocolate in a large bowl. Place the bowl in the microwave or over a double boiler to melt it all together. Microwave for 15 to 30 second increments, stirring in between until the chocolate has melted completely with the butter. If using a double boiler, make sure the bowl is heat-proof, and place it over a pan with simmering water, and whisk the mixture until the chocolate and butter have melted together.
  • Add the granulated sugar to the melted chocolate/butter mixture.
  • Whisk. The mixture will seem separated. Thatโ€™s okay. Once you start adding the eggs, it will emulsify and come together.
  • Add the eggs, one at a time, whisking until incorporated before adding the next egg.
  • Add the final yolk along with the vanilla. Whisk to combine.
  • Add the flour and salt to the bowl. Fold with a spatula.
  • Add the chopped Biscoff cookies. Fold.
  • Pour the batter in the prepared pan. Use a spatula to smooth it out.
  • Bake the blondies in the oven for 35 minutes, until the blondies look set around the edges and on top. And a toothpick inserted in the blondies doesnโ€™t come out with gooey batter stuck on it.
  • If the blondies are browning too much on top, but the middle isnโ€™t cooked yet, cover with aluminum foil to finish baking.
  • Remove the blondies from the oven.
  • Let them cool down.
Biscoff Ganache
  • Heat up the heavy cream and the Biscoff butter until they reach 175ยบF, or until very hot in the microwave, before it comes to a boil.
  • Pour the hot cream mixture over the white chocolate. Cover and let sit for 1 minute.
  • Whisk until the chocolate is completely melted. If the ganache is too thick, add warm heavy cream by the teaspoon to loosen the consistency a bit.
  • After about ten minutes, it should be thick enough to spread. Pour over the cooled brownies. Sprinkle with cookie crumbs.
  • Let it set for about 30 minutes. Then slice and serve.

Notes

Storage: Store the blondies in an air-tight container, at room temperature for up to 2 days. Or in the fridge, for up to 6 days. Let them come to room temperature by letting them sit on the counter for 20 minutes before serving. You can also freeze the baked blondies for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight.
Pan: Donโ€™t use a glass pan to make the recipe. Itโ€™s better to use a steel or metal pan. Glass pans heat up slowly, which can result in blondies with an underdone center, and overcooked edges.
White Chocolate: Use good-quality white chocolate with over 20% of cocoa butter in it. Donโ€™t use candy melts.ย  If you canโ€™t find white chocolate chips with that amount of cocoa butter in them, you can get white chocolate baking bars, or Lindt white chocolate bars and chop it to use in the recipe. My favorite white chocolate brand is Callebaut, I buy it online.
Cookies: For the batter, you can use either filled Biscoff cookies, or the regular ones. I used the Biscoff-filled ones.
Biscoff Butter: Use smooth Biscoff butter for this recipe. Not the crunchy kind. Biscoff can be found at the grocery store or online on Amazon.
