Description
A convenient, no-bake dessert perfect for meal prepping. These creamy, crunchy bars require no oven and can be made ahead for grab-and-go convenience.
Ingredients
Scale
- 15 oz (425g) Lotus Biscoff spreadable cookies
- 6 tbsp (85g) unsalted butter, melted
- 16 oz (450g) full-fat cream cheese, room temperature
- 1 cup (280g) smooth Biscoff spread
- 1/2 cup (60g) powdered sugar, sifted
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 tbsp (28g) salted butter, for topping drizzle
Instructions
- Line a 9×9 inch square pan with parchment paper, creating an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
- Crush the Biscoff cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or a rolling pin in a Ziploc bag.
- Combine the crushed cookies with the 6 tbsp melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand.
- Press the cookie mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Place in the fridge while making the filling.
- In a large bowl, beat the room-temperature cream cheese on medium-high speed until smooth and creamy (about 2 minutes).
- Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, beating until combined.
- Add the 1 cup of smooth Biscoff spread and beat on low speed just until incorporated. Do not overmix.
- Remove the pan from the fridge and pour the cream cheese mixture over the crust. Spread evenly with an offset spatula.
- Dollop remaining Biscoff spread on top and swirl with a knife for a marbled effect (optional).
- Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, until firm.
- Lift the block out of the pan using the parchment sling. Cut into 12 or 16 squares.
- For a drizzle, melt the 2 tbsp salted butter with remaining Biscoff spread in the microwave for 30 seconds. Drizzle over the bars.
Notes
Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature to avoid lumps. Do not substitute ginger snaps for Biscoff cookies as the flavor profile differs. Bars can be frozen for up to 3 months. For gluten-free option, use certified GF Biscoff cookies.
