You will love this Biscoff Cookie Recipe
Biscoff cookies are some of my very favorites! With a perfect soft & chewy vanilla-y base, crunchy biscoff pieces, melty white chocolate chips and cookie butter – they’re nirvana. While I love pairing Biscoff with a lot of things (toast, pancakes, waffles, Biscoff Cake.. ahem, even Biscoff Cheesecake!!), this biscoff cookie recipe has my heart. Here are a few reasons why I love it (and think you will, too).
I’ll let you in on a little secret: the base for this cookie is the exact same as my extremely popular best chocolate chip cookie recipe. But even though I think that recipe is perfect, cookie butter cookies take everything good about it and amplifies it. Chock full of crunch & gooey biscoff flavor and melty white chocolate chips, these are cookies that impress with every bite. Unlike other Biscoff cookies that make you stuff sticky biscoff into the middle of the dough, this biscoff cookie recipe is ultra easy – only taking a few more seconds than a regular chocolate chip cookie. Beyond that, they always make the perfect amount, freeze really well, and come out of the oven perfect every time. If that isn’t a stellar cookie, maybe I don’t know what one is.
Biscoff Cookies Recipe Ingredients
- Salted butter, softened – I always use salted butter, you can use unsalted and add an extra pinch of salt to the dough if you’d like.
- Granulated sugar
- Brown sugar
- Egg
- Vanilla – TRUST ME, there’s a lot of vanilla in this recipe, but it’s so worth it. It really brings the flavor out in the best way.
- Cookie butter – You can use store bought or make your own with my cookie butter recipe.
- All-purpose flour
- Biscoff cookies, crushed to a powder
- Baking soda
- Salt
- White chocolate chips – Use whatever brand of white chocolate chips you’d like.
How to Make Biscoff Cookies with Cookie Butter
- Preheat the oven to 350° F.
- In the bowl of a stand mixer or with an electric hand mixer, cream together the butter, granulated sugar and brown sugar until light in color and fluffy in texture. This will take about 2 minutes.
- Scrape the sides of the bowl and add in the egg, vanilla extract and butter. Mix until well combined.
- Add in the flour, crushed biscoff cookies, baking soda and salt. Mix until a soft but not sticky dough forms.
- Fold in the white chocolate chips.
- Scoop the dough out into 1 1/2 tbsp portions (a #40 cookie scoop works great here) and arrange on your cookie sheet. Can use parchment paper, a silicone mat or an ungreased cookie sheet.
- Bake at 350° F for 8-10 minutes or until the cookies have spread and are just beginning to turn golden brown on the edges.
- Allow the cookies to cool on the pan for 5 minutes before transferring to a wire cooling rack.
How to store Cookie Butter Cookies
Once cooled, store your cookie butter cookies in an airtight container on the counter for 3-5 days! These cookies also freeze really well and can be stored in a resealable freezer bag for up to 3 months.
Cookie Butter Cookie Recipe FAQs
FAQ: What is the difference between Biscoff and speculoos?
Biscoff cookies are part of the Speculoos family. Speculoos cookies are a little bit more spice-forward than Biscoff cookies, but they are very similar. In fact, sometimes they’re the same thing with the name change representative of where you’re eating it.
FAQ: Is speculoos like gingerbread?
Kind of! They both have a nice snap and a caramel-sugar flavor base. However, gingerbread is definitely a little bit more spicy!
FAQ: What is the difference between cookie butter and cookie dough?
Cookie butter is made from grinding Biscoff cookies down with butter, cream, etc until it is a smooth paste. (I actually have a recipe for homemade cookie butter if you’re interested!) Cookie dough is the batter that is used to bake cookies from.
FAQ: What are Biscoff Cookies?
A Biscoff cookie is a caramelized, brown sugar crunchy cookie that is DELICIOUS. Made popular by Delta Airlines, they’re utterly addictive and phenomenal in cookies.
FAQ: What does Biscoff taste like?
Biscoff tastes like heaven! Obviously this is a joke, but Biscoff cookies are caramel-forward with brown sugar undertone and maybe a slight touch of spice.

12/23/24-I made these cookies today to add to my baked Christmas gifts. I tasted one and can’t believe how amazing they are. So yummy! I have added them to holiday list of cookies and will definitely be making them every year.
Made these this evening and they were absolutely delicious! They looked great too. I had one with some vanilla ice cream. I will definitely be making these over and over again! Thank you for your incredible recipe!
I made these cookies and I had to add about three tablespoons more flour than the recipe said.
I live in TN so I don’t think it had any anything to do with that but it the brown sugar packed or just a 1/2 cup not packed I fail in love with these cookies and want to make again but it said a soft not sticky though and my dough with sticky it was sticking to my hands I added three tablespoons of flour and was able to scoop it I stuck the rest of it in the fridge by the first batch cooked and the second batch was the easier to work with so what did I do wrong thank you
Hi Linda! Adding a little extra flour is totally okay to get the texture you want.
Finally made the Biscoff cookies. They did not disappoint. They are SO good. My son loved that they had a little crisp to them. We will be adding them to our favorites. Thank you Karli for sharing all your yummy recipes!😍
I was wondering if I could make these ahead and freeze them unbaked? Thanks!
Yes! Here’s a post all about my process for freezing cookie dough so it’s ready to bake: https://cookiesfordays.com/how-to-freeze-cookie-dough/.
