- 2 cups (1 pint) heavy cream
- ½ cup (150g) Lotus Biscoff spread, plus ⅓ cup, warmed for serving
- ⅓ cup (80g) mascarpone cheese
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- Pinch of Kosher salt
- 2 Tbsp confectioner's sugar
- 2 packages Lotus Biscoff cookies (32 cookies per package), see note below
Whip the heavy cream. Pour 2 cups heavy cream in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with whisk attachment. Whisk until medium peaks form.
Add cookie butter. Add ½ cup (150g) Biscoff, ⅓ cup (80g) mascarpone cream, and 1 tsp pure vanilla extract, a pinch of Kosher salt, and 2 Tbsp confectioner’s sugar, then incorporate until well mixed.
Assemble the icebox cake. Line the loaf pan with a piece of plastic wrap, then place a single layer of Biscoff cookies along the bottom. Spread a layer of the Biscoff cream mixture on top of the cookies so that it’s roughly the same thickness as the cookie layer. Repeat until you reach the top, ending with a layer of cookies.
Refrigerate for 24 hours. Loosely wrap the loaf pan with plastic wrap, then refrigerate for 24 hours. When ready to serve, unmold onto a plate or tray. Serve with a drizzle of warmed Biscoff spread and crushed Biscoff cookies.
- Note: Nutrition facts are estimated using 45 cookies. Cookie count may vary by pan; straight-sided pans use about 9 cookies per layer. Extra cookies are great for topping.
