Ingredients:

  • 1 cup (240ml) strong brewed coffee, cooled
  • 2 tablespoons (30ml) coffee liqueur (optional - Tia Maria or Kahlua work well)
  • 16 ounces (450g) mascarpone cheese, room temperature
  • 1/2 cup (100g) granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon (5ml) vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) heavy cream, chilled
  • 1/4 cup (60g) Biscoff spread, melted
  • Approximately 30 Lotus Biscoff cookies
  • Cocoa powder, for dusting

Instructions:

  1. Combine cooled coffee and coffee liqueur (if using) in a shallow bowl.
  2. In a large bowl, beat mascarpone cheese, sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
  3. In a separate bowl, whip heavy cream until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the whipped cream into the mascarpone mixture.
  4. Dip each Biscoff cookie briefly in the coffee mixture. Do not oversaturate.
  5. Arrange a layer of soaked cookies on the bottom of the baking dish.
  6. Spread half of the mascarpone cream evenly over the cookies.
  7. Drizzle half of the melted Biscoff spread over the cream.
  8. Repeat layers: soaked cookies, remaining mascarpone cream, and remaining Biscoff drizzle.
  9. Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight.
  10. Before serving, dust the top generously with cocoa powder. Slice and serve chilled.
