Instructions
Ready to create this dessert magic? Let’s dive into the easy steps to make Easy Biscoff Tiramisu:
Step 1: Prepare the Coffee
Start by brewing a small batch of strong coffee or espresso. You’ll need to let it cool down to room temperature before using it, so make sure you leave enough time for that.
Step 2: Whip the Mascarpone Cream
In a large bowl, combine the mascarpone cheese, heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Use an electric mixer to beat everything together until you get a thick and creamy texture. It should be smooth and easily spreadable.
Step 3: Soak the Biscoff Cookies
Take your Biscoff cookies and quickly dip them into the cooled coffee (don’t let them soak too long, or they’ll get too soggy). Layer the soaked cookies at the bottom of a serving dish. You can use a 9×9-inch dish or any similar-sized container.
Step 4: Assemble the Layers
Once the Biscoff cookies are in place, spread a generous layer of the mascarpone cream over them, smoothing it out with a spatula. Repeat the process, layering the soaked Biscoff cookies and mascarpone cream until you’ve used up all the ingredients. Make sure the final layer is the mascarpone cream.
Step 5: Chill and Set
Cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 4 hours—overnight is even better. This allows all the flavors to meld together and gives the tiramisu time to set.
Step 6: Add the Finishing Touch
Before serving, dust the top with cocoa powder for that classic tiramisu look. You can also add extra crumbled Biscoff cookies for some extra crunch if you like.
Step 7: Serve and Enjoy
Once chilled and set, slice and serve this creamy, dreamy Easy Biscoff Tiramisu. Enjoy every delicious, spiced bite!

How to Serve Easy Biscoff Tiramisu
This dessert is perfect as a stand-alone treat, but here are a few ideas to elevate your serving experience:
