What are Biscoff cookies?

The origins of Biscoff cookies, with their unique spiced and caramelized flavor, date back to 1932 in Belgium. Here they are known as known as Speculoos, a name derived from the Latin word “speculum,” which means mirror, referring to the cookies often being molded into mirror-image shapes.

Originally served as a treat with coffee, their popularity has skyrocketed worldwide, inspiring a range of culinary creations, like these pancakes. Their distinct flavor profile has the power to transform a simple breakfast into a gourmet experience, evoking the cozy warmth of a European café.

Biscoff cookies contain a unique blend of spices, including cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, cardamom, and white pepper. This combination gives them a warm, slightly spiced taste that’s not overly sweet. They are thin and have a crisp, crunchy texture, making them perfect for enjoying with a cup of coffee or tea, as they soften slightly when dipped.

Ingredients

  • For the Biscoff Cookie Pancakes
  • 1 1/4 cups flour

  • 8 biscoff cookies, crushed

  • 2 tablespoons sugar

  • 1 tablespoon baking powder

  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

  • 1 1/2 cup milk

  • 2 large eggs

  • 4 tablespoons melted butter

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • maple syrup

  • For the Biscoff Cream Cheese Topping
  • 8 ounces cream cheese, softened

  • 4 biscoff cookies, crushed

  • 1/4 cup powdered sugar

  • 2 tablespoons milk

  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

Directions

  • Crush the Biscoff Cookies:
    Place the Biscoff cookies in a food processor, and pulse until thoroughly crushed.
  • Prepare the Pancake Batter:
    In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, 1/2 cup of crushed Biscoff cookies, sugar, baking powder, and salt. In another bowl, beat together the milk, egg, melted butter, and vanilla extract. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
  • Cook the Pancakes:
    Heat a skillet over medium heat and brush with melted butter. For each pancake, pour about 1/4 cup of batter onto the skillet. Cook until bubbles form on the surface, then flip and cook until golden brown on the other side, about 3-5 minutes total.
  • Make the Biscoff Cream Cheese Topping:
    In a mixing bowl, blend the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the Biscoff spread, confectioners’ sugar, vanilla extract, and milk. Beat until smooth and creamy. Adjust the consistency with more milk if necessary.
  • Assemble and Serve:
    Stack the pancakes on plates. Generously spread the Cream Cheese-Biscoff topping over the pancakes. Drizzle with maple syrup. Garnish with additional crushed Biscoff cookies.

    Enjoy!
