Ingredients for the Best Biscoff Brownies
For the Brownie Base
- 1 cup unsalted butter (melted)
- 1 ½ cups granulated sugar (or ¾ cup white + ¾ cup brown for deeper flavor)
- 3 large eggs (room temperature)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ½ cup unsweetened cocoa powder
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- ¼ teaspoon salt

How to Make Biscoff Brownies (Step-by-Step)
Here is exactly how to make biscoff brownies at home in 10 simple steps:
Step 1: Preheat & Prep
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Line a 9×9-inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving overhang on the sides for easy removal.
Step 2: Mix Wet Ingredients
In a large bowl, whisk together melted butter and sugar until smooth and glossy.
Step 3: Add Eggs
Add eggs one at a time, whisking well after each. Stir in vanilla extract.
Step 4: Add Dry Ingredients
Sift in cocoa powder, flour, and salt. Gently fold with a spatula until just combined. Do not overmix — that is the key to fudgy brownies.
Step 5: Pour into Pan
Pour the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread evenly with an offset spatula.
Step 6: Add the Biscoff Swirl
Warm ½ cup Biscoff spread in microwave for 15-20 seconds until pourable. Drop spoonfuls over the brownie batter, then use a butter knife to swirl into beautiful patterns.
Step 7: Add Cookie Topping
Sprinkle crushed Lotus Biscoff cookies generously over the top.
Step 8: Bake
Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with moist crumbs (not raw batter). Do NOT overbake.
Step 9: Cool & Drizzle
Let cool completely in the pan (about 1 hour). Warm remaining ¼ cup Biscoff spread and drizzle over the top.
Step 10: Slice & Serve
Lift brownies out using parchment overhang. Slice into 12-16 squares with a sharp knife (wipe between cuts for clean lines). Serve at room temperature.
🇦🇪 Dubai Biscoff Brownie Variation (Viral Crumbl Style)
Want to make the viral dubai biscoff brownie crumbl version that has been taking over TikTok and Pinterest? Here is the easy twist:
Additional Ingredients:
- ½ cup pistachio cream (or pistachio butter)
- ½ cup kataifi pastry (shredded phyllo dough)
- 2 tablespoons butter (for toasting kataifi)
- ¼ cup chopped pistachios (for garnish)
Instructions:
- Toast the kataifi: Melt 2 tbsp butter in a pan over medium heat. Add shredded kataifi and toast until golden brown (5-7 minutes). Let cool.
- Make the brownie base following Steps 1-5 above.
- Add Dubai layer: Spread pistachio cream evenly over the brownie batter. Sprinkle half the toasted kataifi on top.
- Add biscoff swirl (Step 6 from main recipe).
- Top with remaining kataifi + crushed Lotus cookies + chopped pistachios.
- Bake following Steps 8-10.
The result? Dubai biscoff brownies with crispy kataifi, creamy pistachio, fudgy chocolate, and that signature Biscoff swirl. Pure viral magic in every bite.
Tips for the Perfect Biscoff Brownies
- Do NOT overmix the batter — overmixing = cakey brownies (we want fudgy).
- Underbake slightly — pull them when the center still looks slightly wet. They firm up while cooling.
- Use room-temperature eggs for the best batter texture.
- Quality cocoa powder matters — Dutch-processed gives the richest flavor.
- Warm the Biscoff spread just enough to pour, not until hot.
- Cool COMPLETELY before slicing — hot brownies = messy cuts.
- For ultra-fudgy texture, sub ½ cup of the flour with cornstarch.
- Add flaky sea salt on top to balance the sweetness.
Variations to Try
- Dubai Biscoff Brownies (see section above) — viral Crumbl-style

- Gluten-Free Biscoff Brownies — swap flour for 1:1 gluten-free baking flour
- Vegan Biscoff Brownies — Biscoff is vegan! Use flax eggs + vegan butter
Storage Instructions
- Room Temperature: Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days.
- Refrigerator: Up to 1 week (warm slightly before serving for that fudgy texture).
- Freezer: Wrap individual brownies in plastic wrap, freeze up to 2 months. Thaw at room temperature.
