Biscoff Swirl Brownies
Who knew that I would be busier as a teacher than I was as a student? I remember back in university when I thought I had no time to do anything but study. Well, I now know what it's like to have no time to myself. With marking, making worksheets, creating a class website and creating comprehensive notes for each lesson is taking up all of my time now.
I have resorted to baking at 11pm, when I have finished all my teacherly duties. But not as often as I would like.
I have been seriously off my baking game in the past few weeks. I tried making some lemon cookies, which just ended up tasting like salt. Then I tried making pear muffins, which frankly, didn't taste like anything at all. I knew I needed to try something new. Something no fail. Like brownies.
But not just any brownies. Brownies with Biscoff spread.
Because I can't buy Biscoff spread in Canada (unless I order it on amazon) I need to choose the perfect recipe to use this precious spread. Spooning it directly into my mouth almost seems like a waste, until I have the spoon in my hand. Then I can't stop. Get me a recipe please!
And if you know me at all, you know that I will put every kind of spread into brownies. My all time favorite were these nutella brownies, but after making brownies with biscoff spread? I don't think I want another brownie recipe in my life.
These brownies are everything you would ever want in a brownie, and so much more! Once you bite the crackly shell on the outside, you get to the moist, fudgy center with the perfect amount of chewy. The biscoff spread then sends your taste buds to heaven, all while making this brownie look extra fancy.
I'm thinking I need to buy some more Biscoff spread. Stat!

Ooey gooey yumminess! I saw this recipie yesterday, thinking I'm going to be making these for the holidays! I just bought all the ingredients! Cant wait to try it!
Yay! Let me know how it goes!
I love the look and the gooey texture of the brownies...but I must confess that I have never had Biscoff...and it is time to give this a try.
Thanks for the recipe Cathleen...hope you are having a wonderful week 🙂
I am most definitely a chocolate lover and have not met a brownie I didn't enjoy...and these are clearly easy to love. Glad you manage somehow to squeeze time baking despite how busy it is as a teacher. Good teachers rock...and deserve lots and lots of chocolate!
I have no clue what biscoff is, but these brownies look fantastic!
Love these brownies Cathleen, you sound like a great teacher.
