Vanilla Biscoff Layer Cake

Who doesn’t love the creamy, buttery goodness of Biscoff cookies? And when you pair them with a luscious vanilla pudding, you get the most irresistible dessert that’s perfect for any occasion! This Vanilla Biscoff Layer Cake is not only delicious but incredibly easy to make. Plus, it’s one of those treats that looks fancy but takes just minutes to put together. Let me tell you, the hardest part is waiting for it to chill!

Method

Preparing the Pudding

Start by preparing the pudding, which will be the creamy layer that holds everything together. In a mixing bowl, pour the vanilla pudding mix and add 2 cups of cold milk. Using a whisk, beat the mixture briskly for a few minutes until the pudding powder dissolves completely. You should notice the mixture thickening slightly. Let it sit for about 5 minutes to allow the pudding to set and develop a smooth, velvety texture.

Layering the Cookies and Pudding

While the pudding is setting, it’s time to prepare the base of your cake. Take a serving dish of your choice and lay down a layer of Biscoff cookies on the bottom. Try to cover as much surface as possible without overlapping. Next, carefully spread a generous layer of the thickened vanilla pudding over the cookies. Smooth it out with a spatula to ensure even coverage.

Continue this layering process by adding another layer of Biscoff cookies on top of the pudding, followed by more pudding. Repeat until you’ve used up the ingredients, finishing with a final layer of pudding on top. This creates a beautiful, layered dessert that showcases both the creamy and crunchy elements.

Drizzling the Biscoff Spread

Now, let’s add that signature Biscoff flair. In a microwave-safe bowl, scoop out half a cup of Biscoff spread and heat it in the microwave for about 15-20 seconds. You want the spread to be soft and pourable but not too hot.

Once the spread is melted, drizzle it over the top layer of pudding. To give your dessert a beautiful finish, use a toothpick to gently swirl the spread into the pudding. Aim for gentle, sweeping motions to create a marbled effect without mixing the layers too much.

Chilling the Cake

After assembling your masterpiece, cover the dish with plastic wrap and place it in the refrigerator. Allow it to chill for at least 3 hours, or even overnight, if possible. This chilling time is essential for the cookies to soften and the layers to meld together, creating a cohesive and flavorful cake.

Notes

  • Make sure the pudding is thickened before layering; otherwise, it may seep through the cookies and lose its structure.
