Recipe Questions
How do I know when my Biscoff Brownies are ready to be taken out of the oven?
Use the toothpick test: Insert a toothpick into the center; if it comes out with a few moist crumbs, they're done. The edges should be set and slightly pulled away from the pan. Avoid overbaking for a fudgier texture.
Can I use Biscoff spread instead of Biscoff cookie in the brownies batter?
Absolutely! You can add Biscoff spread directly to the brownie batter for flavor or add half the brownie batter into the prepared pan and spread a layer of biscoff butter then add the other half of brownie batter.
How can I achieve fudgy brownies?
The key to fudgy brownies is to bake them for a shorter amount of time and to use ingredients like melted chocolate or cocoa powder, rather than cocoa powder alone, to ensure a moist texture.
