Ingredients

• 3/4 cup Biscoff cookie butter
• 1/2 cup light or dark brown sugar (packed)
• 1/2 cup granulated sugar
• 2 large eggs
• 1 large egg yolk
• 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
• 10 tablespoons unsalted butter
• 2/3 cup + 1/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1/4 cup unsweetened Dutch cocoa powder
• 2/3 cup + 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour (*see notes below on measuring*)
• 1 teaspoon espresso powder
• 1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
• 4-5 Biscoff cookies (for the top)
• Extra cookie butter (for the top)

Instructions

1. Start by pressing a large piece of parchment paper into an 8×8 square metal baking pan. Make sure to crease the bottom edges so that when you lift it out, you can see the outline of the pan. Spread the cookie butter inside the creased edges and chill it in the freezer until firm.
2. Once the cookie butter is firm, line the baking pan with parchment paper, letting it hang off all four sides for easy removal. Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C).
3. In a mixing bowl, whisk together the brown sugar, granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract until well combined.
4. Melt the butter and 2/3 cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips together in a saucepan over low heat until smooth. Whisk in the cocoa powder and then combine the melted chocolate mixture with the egg mixture until just combined.
5. Gently fold in the flour, espresso powder, and salt until all ingredients are just incorporated.
6. Pour half of the brownie batter into the prepared pan, spreading it evenly to the edges (about 340 grams).
7. Take the frozen cookie butter square, peel off the parchment paper, and place it on top of the brownie batter.
8. Pour the remaining brownie batter over the cookie butter, spreading it evenly. Break the Biscoff cookies into pieces and press them on top of the batter.
9. Warm 2 tablespoons of cookie butter in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds until it’s runny and drizzle it over the top.
10. Bake the brownies in the preheated oven for 30-40 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out with a few moist crumbs.
11. Once baked, let the pan cool completely on a wire rack before removing. For an extra treat, drizzle more cookie butter on top before cutting into squares and enjoy!

Tips & Variations

• Cookie Butter Consistency: Make sure your cookie butter is at room temperature before using it to ensure easy spreading.
• Chocolate Boost: Feel free to add more chocolate chips for an extra chocolaty experience.
• Nutty Addition: Chop up some nuts, like walnuts or pecans, and fold them into the batter for added crunch.
• Flavor Twist: Try adding a pinch of cinnamon to the brownie mixture for a warm, spiced flavor.
