Biscoff stuffed cookies

These are a shameless homemade copycat of the famous Biscoff stuffed cookies from Butter Boy, a popular cookie shop here in Sydney. They’re ridiculously good – but at $8.50 each? Had to create my own!

And I’m absolutely thrilled with how the homemade version turned out – I’ll even make the bold claim that they’re better because the buttery flavour and spices come through more clearly, and the texture is spot-on. But despite this, I feel mildly irritated by these cookies.

First, because my jeans have mysteriously shrunk since I embarked on the recreation mission.🤔

Second, the dough is based on my beloved Chocolate Chip Cookie of My Dreams (48 times!), which I truly believed would reign forever as the OG, the icon, the unbeatable best. Everybody said so!

But apparently not. Almost everyone who’s tried these Biscoff ones say they love them even more. Hesitantly, at first, like they’re worried about hurting my feelings. Then, a few bites in, they boldly declare they trump the OG.

Honestly. How dare they. 😭 (Yet, I get it. 😭)

These are….

….. unapologetically big – 160g/5.5oz each. They need to be, for visible Biscoff inside and for it to bake long enough for outstandingly crispy edges and base with chewy ridges and a beautiful golden surface while the inside is gooey and molten without being floury blatantly raw cookie dough….UGH!!! How are you not running into the kitchen to make these now!!
