I still remember the first time I had this cupcake at C&D. This is how delicious this little thing is. Thank you so much for sharing the recipe Jemma! It's really kind of you to share the recipe of a best seller at your store!

[@wnsabu]

Did u tried this recipe? Is it same like they sell it?

[@nandaguilar]

@@wnsabu yes! And I also made it as a big cake (just use the buttercream as filling and frosting). It's the same one you'd find at C&D.

[@wnsabu]

@@nandaguilar 👍 Thank you for your reply, I will try it soon. I think 9 Inch pans should be fine, please suggest. Thanks

[@tammiemartinez6485]

@@wnsabu Just curious. Did you make the cake using 9in rounds? That's the only size I have. I do have an 8x8 square but only one. I'm not sure if it's okay to leave the batter sitting around until the 8in has cooled. I've made these a few times in cupcakes and they are insanely delicious/ addictive (I used Gemma's SMBC to frost them which made them taste all the better). Hope you reply as soon as you can. My nephew wants these for his birthday (Dec 24th) but I'd like to make it as a cake if it's possible. Sorry for the novel, lol. Thanks for reading it...

I love Biscoff biscuit so much but never have I thought of making a Biscoff cupcake. Thank you so much Jemma!!

[@DieKuchenBaeckerin]

Sometimes I still think of the biscoff cupcake I had when I was at the shop two or three years ago. They are soo good!!

[@wokebear7797]

These are absolutely delicious. I made these for Christmas and they were a hit with all the kids *and* adults - for the icing I used Russian piping tops and made little flours with crushed biscotti “dirt”, they were so yummy, thanks for these quality recipes!!

[@FK-rb2cr]

New subbie here! I have been binge watching your vids for 3 days now and counting! You're lovely, Jemma! A true gem!

[@vjohnson2400]

I’ll be making these little beauties on Saturday. Bring it on. I’ve just made these cupcakes - they taste amazing! Another great recipe, thanks Jemma.

[@irsanwar]

I just tried these and they were oily at the base, the liner was greasy. Is it supposed to be that way?

[@akfitness4077]

Just made them. With the butter cream icing. •Steps were easy to follow •love you had ingredients portioned in description •turned out GREAT!

Hello! 😁 I wanted to ask...to make the swiss meringue buttercream, did you just divide the recipe in half or did you make the full batch? Thank you in advance 😁

[@staceyroberts3468]

I was hoping someone would say how good they taste before I buy the ingredients 👌

[@londonguyinstockholm]

So happy to see this recipe - I bought a jar of Biscoff spread 'on spec' in Torremolinos (!) as you can't get it here in Sweden. Now I know exactly what I'll be doing with it! Once again Jemma thank you for your amazing generosity in sharing your recipies with us, you are fantastic!

Speculoos are my favourites biscuits so I can't wait to try this recipe. 😋😍

[@MaccaLives]

It neaver ceases to amaze (and amuse) me how enthusiastic people get over things that have been in shops here (the Netherlands, but Belgium as well) for ages and ages. In this case, Speculoos/speculaas, which is such a common thing here, nobody really pays it any mind. That said, I'm still going to make this recipe because.... well, speculaas!

[@Saknika]

Biscoff is so good! My fellow Americans, you can usually find Biscoff in the supermarket in the peanut butter area. ;)

[@ilovemusic3584]

I love your comment ! But, not only Americans and Brits watch Bolder Bigger Baking. For example, I'm African Canadian

[@Saknika]

@@ilovemusic3584 That's awesome! I can't say for sure though if your supermarkets have Biscoff (and if they do, where), so you'll have to keep your eyes peeled. C:

Biscof, called speculaas in Belgium( where it originates from ) is Belgiums most beloved bisquit. Its also fantastic as a base for a cheesecake or mixed in icecream. We also have it in chocolate.

Bit late to the party at this end. Looking for Biscoff cupcake recipe this morning and came across this one. I had all the ingredients in, ready for a baking day, except for the cream. Quick nip to the shops. Followed to the letter, and it just worked perfectly. First time making Swiss meringue buttercream but will definitely be making again Thank you so much for sharing this recipe. Xx

Finally I made these. It was hard to get the cream and biscoff consistency right. I had to make it twice. Children loved it. For us adults was little too sweet. Perfect for children’s birthdays parties 😁

[@tammiemartinez6485]

When I first made these I wasn't sure if I'd get the right consistency for the whipped cream and Biscoff but it whipped up just fine. And fast too. You do have to whip it fast and hard though. I'm sorry it didn't work for you on the first go but glad you were able to get it there. That cream is so good but then again. I love anything Biscoff, lol...

I’m a huge fan and really love your recipes. I’m looking for a new stand mixer and was hoping you might be able to recommend one. My current one isn’t happy with the Italian meringue buttercream making that I do a lot of/the 30min or so on full speed. It gets crazy hot and makes unhappy noises. Could you recommend one that lasts for a long mixing time or what one do you use?
