Directions and Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and lightly grease a 9×13-inch baking pan to ensure easy removal of the brownies.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the melted butter and granulated sugar, whisking until the mixture is smooth and glossy.
- Add the eggs one by one, mixing well after each addition, and then stir in the vanilla extract for that lovely aromatic touch.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, cocoa powder, and salt, ensuring there are no lumps. Gradually fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture until just combined — be careful not to overmix!
- Gently swirl in the Biscoff cookie spread, incorporating its luscious flavor into the brownie batter, creating beautiful streaks of caramel color.
- Pour the batter into the prepared baking pan, smoothing it out evenly with a spatula to ensure even baking.
- Sprinkle the crushed Biscoff cookies over the top of the brownie batter, allowing those delicious bits to create a delightful crunch.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out with a few moist crumbs clinging to it.
- Allow the brownies to cool completely in the pan. Once cool, cut them into squares and serve to family and friends (or keep them all for yourself, we won’t judge!).
Notes or Tips
For a richer flavor, try using dark chocolate cocoa powder instead of regular unsweetened cocoa powder. If you want to ramp up the indulgence, drizzle some extra Biscoff spread on top before serving! These brownies also freeze beautifully; simply wrap them tightly and enjoy them later for a quick treat.
Cooking Techniques
The key to perfectly fudgy brownies is not overmixing the batter after adding the dry ingredients. Mixing just until combined ensures that the brownies stay moist and indulgent. Also, make sure to check for doneness a minute or two before the recommended baking time to avoid overbaking.
FAQ
