Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 1/2 cups (310g) all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 cup (200g) granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) vegetable oil
  • 3 large eggs, room temperature
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 cup (240ml) whole milk
  • 1/2 cup (120ml) sour cream
  • 1 cup (240g) unsalted butter, softened
  • 3 cups (360g) powdered sugar
  • 1/2 cup (120g) Biscoff spread
  • 23 tablespoons heavy cream
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Crushed Biscoff cookies (optional)
  • Extra Biscoff spread (optional)
  • Whipped cream or caramel sauce (optional)

Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Line your cake pans with parchment paper and lightly grease the sides.
  2. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Set aside.
  3. In another bowl, combine the sugar, vegetable oil, eggs, and vanilla extract. Beat until smooth.
  4. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk and sour cream. Mix until just combined—don’t overmix!
  5. Divide the batter evenly among the cake pans. Bake for 25-30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cakes cool completely on a wire rack.
  6. Beat the softened butter until fluffy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, followed by the Biscoff spread, vanilla extract, and heavy cream. Beat until smooth and creamy.
  7. Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread a generous layer of frosting on top. Repeat with the remaining layers, finishing with frosting on the top and sides.
  8. Sprinkle crushed Biscoff cookies on top and drizzle with extra Biscoff spread. Add whipped cream or caramel sauce if desired.

Notes

[‘Make sure your eggs, milk, and sour cream are at room temperature for a smoother batter.’, ‘Stir the batter just until combined to keep the cake fluffy and tender.’, ‘Don’t rush the cooling process before frosting—warm cakes can cause the frosting to melt.’, ‘Apply a thin layer of frosting to seal crumbs before adding the final layer for a polished look.’, ‘Keep leftover frosting covered in the fridge—it’s great for other desserts!’]
