Scale
Crust:
- 1 1/2 cups Biscoff cookie crumbs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
Caramel Layer:
- 1 cup packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter
- 1/4 cup light corn syrup or honey
- 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
- 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Topping:
- 1 cup Biscoff cookie spread
- 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
- 2 tablespoons heavy cream
- Extra crushed Biscoff cookies for garnish (optional)
Instructions
- Prepare the baking vessel by lining an 8×8-inch pan with parchment paper, allowing excess to hang over edges for effortless removal.
- Combine Biscoff cookie crumbs, granulated sugar, and melted butter in a mixing bowl, stirring until the mixture achieves a consistent texture.
- Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly across the pan’s bottom, creating a compact base. Refrigerate while preparing subsequent layers.
- Create caramel by combining brown sugar, butter, and corn syrup in a saucepan over medium heat, continuously stirring until ingredients integrate smoothly.
- Allow the mixture to simmer gently, stirring consistently for 2-3 minutes until it reaches a rich golden consistency.
- Remove caramel from heat, incorporating condensed milk and vanilla extract. Whisk until achieving a silky, uniform texture.
- Carefully pour the caramel over the chilled base, spreading it evenly. Refrigerate for approximately 1 hour until the layer sets completely.
- Warm Biscoff spread in the microwave for 20-30 seconds, transforming it into a pourable consistency.
- Melt chocolate and heavy cream together in the microwave, stirring periodically until achieving a smooth, glossy finish.
- Drizzle the heated Biscoff spread across the set caramel layer, creating an even coating.
- Artfully swirl the melted chocolate over the Biscoff layer, generating an elegant marbled design.
- Optionally sprinkle additional crushed Biscoff cookies across the surface for enhanced texture and visual appeal.
- Refrigerate the dessert for a minimum of 2 hours, ensuring complete solidification.
- Extract the dessert using parchment paper overhangs, slice into desired portions, and indulge in this decadent Biscoff Caramel Slice.
Notes
- Prevent Sticking Always line the pan with parchment paper, allowing overhang for easy removal and clean slicing.
- Temperature Control Ensure ingredients like butter and caramel are at room temperature for smoother mixing and consistent texture.
- Gluten-Free Swap Biscoff cookie crumbs with gluten-free graham crackers or almond flour for celiac-friendly version.
- Texture Tip Gently press base mixture to create compact, even layer without compressing too firmly, which can make it dense and hard.
