  7. Gently fold in the Biscoff spread.
  8. Divide the batter evenly among the cupcake liners, filling each about two-thirds full.
  9. Bake for 18-20 minutes or until a toothpick inserted comes out clean.

Biscoff Buttercream

  3. Mix until well blended and fluffy, adding heavy cream until you reach your desired consistency.

  5. Top each frosted cupcake with a Biscoff cookie.
