How to Make Chewy Biscoff Blondies with White Chocolate Chips
-
Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9 x 9-inch baking pan by greasing it and lining with parchment paper, ensuring easy removal later.
-
Melt the unsalted butter in a medium saucepan over low heat. Once melted, mix in the Biscoff cookie butter along with the brown sugar and granulated sugar until smooth and well-combined.
-
Beat in the eggs one at a time, making sure to fully incorporate each before adding the next. Stir in the vanilla extract for a burst of flavor.
-
Whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon in a separate bowl. This will help distribute the dry ingredients evenly.
-
Fold the dry ingredients into the wet mixture gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix, as this can affect the blondies’ texture.
-
Add the white chocolate chips and fold them into the batter carefully, ensuring they are evenly distributed through the mixture.
-
Pour the batter into the prepared pan and smooth the top with a spatula. This ensures even baking.
-
Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the edges turn golden brown and the center is set but still soft. A toothpick inserted should come out with moist crumbs.
-
Cool completely in the pan before slicing. Once cooled, top with broken Biscoff cookies and a drizzle of melted cookie butter if desired!
Optional: Serve warm with a scoop of vanilla ice cream for an indulgent treat!

Chewy Biscoff Blondies with White Chocolate Chips Recipe FAQs
What type of Biscoff cookie butter should I use for the best flavor?
Absolutely! For the most authentic taste, I recommend using the classic Biscoff cookie butter. However, if you’re looking for a spin, you can try Speculoos or similar cookie butters, though the flavor will be slightly different. Always remember to check for smooth and creamy textures to achieve that delightful chewiness!
How should I store my Chewy Biscoff Blondies?
To keep them fresh, place your blondies in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days. This will help maintain that scrumptious chewiness. If you need them for a longer period, wrap them in plastic wrap and foil, then store in the freezer, where they will stay delicious for up to 3 months.
Can I freeze these blondies, and how should I do it?
Certainly! To freeze your Chewy Biscoff Blondies, start by cutting them into individual squares. Wrap each piece tightly in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer-safe bag or container. They will keep well for about 3 months. When you want to enjoy one, simply transfer it to the refrigerator to thaw overnight, or microwave it for 10-15 seconds to warm it up—it’s like enjoying a fresh batch all over again!
What if my blondies turn out too dry?
Very commonly, if your blondies are dry, it may be due to overbaking. Always keep an eye on them during the last few minutes; a toothpick should come out with moist crumbs—not clean. Another tip is to ensure your butter is melted but cooled slightly before mixing, as adding hot butter can cook the eggs too quickly.
Can I make these blondies gluten-free?
Absolutely yes! To create a gluten-free version of your Chewy Biscoff Blondies, simply substitute the all-purpose flour with a 1:1 gluten-free flour blend. Ensure that all other ingredients, like the baking powder, are gluten-free as well. Your blondies will still come out incredibly chewy and delicious!
Are there any allergy considerations for this recipe?
Definitely! Since this recipe contains eggs and dairy, it’s not suitable for those with allergies to these ingredients. For a vegan version, consider using egg replacements, like applesauce or flaxseed meal, and opt for dairy-free butter and white chocolate alternatives. Always check labels for specific allergies and cross-contamination!
