Ingredients

Scale

Cream Mixture

  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup mascarpone cheese
  • 1/2 cup powdered sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

Crust

  • 6 Lotus Biscoff cookies, crushed
  • 2 tbsp melted butter

Garnish

  • 2 tbsp chocolate shavings

Instructions

  1. Whip the Cream: In a mixing bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form, creating a light and airy base for the dessert.
  2. Combine Mixture: Add mascarpone cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract to the whipped cream, then continue whipping gently until the ingredients are fully combined into a smooth, creamy mixture.
  3. Prepare the Crust: In a separate bowl, mix the crushed Lotus Biscoff cookies with the melted butter until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble wet sand, which will help the crust hold together.
  4. Form the Base Layer: Spoon the cookie and butter mixture into the bottom of serving cups, pressing lightly to create a firm and even crust layer.
  5. Add Cream Layer: Spoon the mascarpone cream mixture over the cookie crust in each cup, smoothing the surface with the back of a spoon or spatula for an attractive finish.
  6. Chill: Place the dessert cups in the refrigerator and chill for at least 2 hours to set the cream and allow the flavors to meld beautifully.
  7. Garnish and Serve: Just before serving, garnish each cup with chocolate shavings to add texture and a hint of chocolate flavor, then serve chilled for best taste and texture.

Notes

  • For a firmer crust, add an extra Biscoff cookie or more butter.
  • Can be made a day in advance and stored covered in the refrigerator.
  • Use high-quality mascarpone for the creamiest texture and best flavor.
  • Chocolate shavings can be substituted with white chocolate or caramel drizzle as desired.
  • To crush cookies, place them in a zip-top bag and use a rolling pin or food processor.
