The cake becomes not just a dessert, but an experience—moist, fragrant, and oh-so-decadent. I promise that once you take your first bite, you’ll be hooked! So grab your apron, and let’s bring this little slice of heaven into your kitchen together.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

• Rich, comforting flavors: It’s like a warm hug on a plate.

Ingredients

Here’s what you’ll need to create this delightful Baked Biscoff Cake:

• 2 cups all-purpose flour
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened (make sure it’s at room temperature for easy blending!)
• 3/4 cup Biscoff spread
• 1 cup milk (whole milk adds richness, but any kind works)
• 3 large eggs
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
• 1 tablespoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• Crushed Biscoff cookies for topping (optional, but who can resist?!)

Step-by-Step Instructions

Now, let’s get to the fun part! Follow these simple steps to make your Baked Biscoff Cake.

1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Greasing and lining your cake pan with parchment paper will make sure nothing sticks! I like to use a 9-inch round pan, but a square one works too.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter and sugar until it’s light and fluffy. This usually takes about 3-4 minutes and is so worth it for the texture!
3. Mix in the Biscoff spread until well combined. The smell at this point will be heavenly—it’s hard to resist a taste!
4. Add the eggs one at a time, ensuring each is fully incorporated before adding the next. Don’t rush this part—it helps the cake to rise beautifully.
5. Stir in the vanilla extract, and then slowly alternate adding the flour, milk, baking powder, and salt. Start and end with the flour so the mixture comes together nicely. Remember, don’t overmix, or your cake will end up dense—just mix until it’s all beautiful and combined.
6. Pour the batter into the prepared pan, smoothing the top with a spatula. Keep an eye out for any air bubbles—pop them gently with a toothpick!
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 30-35 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. The smell will be your cue that you’re in for a treat!
8. Once baked, let it cool in the pan for about 10 minutes before transferring it to a wire rack. Allow it to cool completely before serving (if you can resist that long!).

Pro Tips & Variations

Now that you’ve got the basics down, here are some fun ways to enhance your Baked Biscoff Cake:

• Add spices: A dash of cinnamon or nutmeg can add warmth and depth to the flavor profile—great for fall or winter baking!
• Nuts: Consider folding in some chopped pecans or walnuts for a crunchy surprise. It adds texture and taste!
• Frosting: Once cooled, slather some cream cheese frosting or more Biscoff spread on top—because why not?
• Layering: Try slicing the cake horizontally and layering it with whipped cream and fresh fruit for a delicious trifle effect.

Serving Suggestions

There’s nothing quite like a slice of Baked Biscoff Cake served with a steaming cup of coffee or chai tea. Picture this: you cozy up on your couch, cake on a cute plate, perhaps with a sprinkle of crushed Biscoff for good measure. It’s the perfect snack for an afternoon pick-me-up or a delightful dessert after dinner.

If you’re feeling really indulgent (who wouldn’t?), add a scoop of vanilla ice cream on the side. The warm cake against the cold ice cream? Absolute heaven!

Storage Tips

To keep your cake fresh and delicious:

• Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days. If you live in a humid area, you might want to refrigerate it.
• For longer storage, you can freeze the cake! Slice it first, wrap each piece tightly in plastic wrap, and then store it in a freezer bag. It’ll last up to 2-3 months.
• To reheat, pop it in the microwave for 10-15 seconds or let it sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes before enjoying again. It will taste as good as fresh!

FAQs

Can I use other types of flour?

Absolutely! You can experiment with whole wheat flour or gluten-free alternatives. Just keep in mind that the texture might vary a bit, so you may need to tweak the recipe slightly.

Can I make this cake ahead of time?

You sure can! This cake stores well, so feel free to bake it a day or two in advance and keep it covered until you’re ready to serve.

What if I can’t find Biscoff spread?

No worries! You can substitute with cookie butter or even a different nut butter, though the flavors will be a little different. Just remember, the essence of this cake is the buttery, caramel-y flavor!

Can I make cupcakes instead?

Definitely! Just adjust your baking time to around 15-20 minutes, keeping an eye on them. Happily, you’ll end up with adorable little treats that are perfect for sharing.
