Cake
- 1 (16.25 oz) white cake mix (dry mix only, do NOT prepare according to package instructions)
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup melted butter
- 4 large eggs
- ⅓ cup Biscoff cookie butter spread (melted in microwave for 30 seconds)
Frosting
- 8 oz cream cheese, room temperature
- ½ cup butter, room temperature
- ⅔ cup Biscoff cookie butter spread
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 2 cups powdered sugar
- Splash of milk (as needed to thin frosting)
Topping (Optional)
- 1 package Biscoff cookies, crumbled or halved
- Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F and grease only the bottom of a 9×13 inch baking pan to prevent sticking.
- Make Cake Batter: In a large bowl, combine the dry white cake mix, milk, melted butter, and eggs. Use a mixer on medium speed to blend all ingredients thoroughly for about 2 minutes, until smooth.
- Prepare Cake Pan: Spread the cake batter evenly into the prepared baking pan using a spatula to level the surface.
- Add Cookie Butter Swirl: Microwave the Biscoff cookie butter for 30 seconds until melted and pourable. Drizzle this melted cookie butter evenly over the cake batter in the pan.
- Swirl Cookie Butter: Using a butter knife, gently swirl the cookie butter into the cake batter to create a marbled effect without fully mixing it in.
- Bake Cake: Bake in the preheated oven for 30-32 minutes or until the edges are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
- Cool Cake: Remove the cake from the oven and allow it to cool completely in the pan before frosting.
- Prepare Frosting: In a mixing bowl, cream together the room temperature cream cheese and butter until smooth and fluffy. Mix in the Biscoff cookie butter and vanilla extract until well combined.
- Add Powdered Sugar: Gradually add powdered sugar, one cup at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Add a small splash of milk if the frosting is too thick to spread easily.
- Frost Cake: Spread the prepared frosting evenly over the cooled cake surface using a spatula.
- Optional Topping: Sprinkle crumbled or halved Biscoff cookies over the frosting to add crunch and extra flavor.
Notes
- Ensure the cake is completely cooled before applying frosting to prevent it from melting.
- Use room temperature cream cheese and butter for a smooth frosting texture.
- The optional Biscoff cookie topping adds texture but can be omitted for a smoother finish.
- If frosting is too thick, add milk gradually to reach desired spreading consistency.
