Scale
Base Ingredients
- 90g (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter
- 280g (10-ounce) mini marshmallows
- 200g (approximately ¾ cup) smooth Biscoff spread
- 180g (about 6 cups) Rice Krispies cereal
- 125g (around 16) Lotus Biscoff biscuits, crushed
- 1 teaspoon good-quality vanilla extract
- A pinch of sea salt
- Additional 1 cup (around 50g) mini marshmallows for folding in
Instructions
- Prepare Your Tin: Line a 9×9 inch (23×23 cm) square baking tin with baking parchment, leaving an overhang on two opposite sides to ease removal later. Lightly grease the parchment and exposed tin areas with butter or neutral cooking spray.
- Melt the Base: Gently melt 90g unsalted butter in a large heavy-based saucepan over low heat, ensuring the butter does not brown.
- Add Marshmallows and Biscoff: Add 280g mini marshmallows and 200g smooth Biscoff spread to the melted butter. Stir constantly over low heat with a spatula until completely melted into a smooth, velvety mixture without overheating.
- Incorporate Flavour Boosters: Remove the saucepan from heat and immediately stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and a pinch of sea salt to enhance the dessert’s complexity.
- Combine with Cereals and Biscuits: Quickly fold in 180g Rice Krispies cereal and the crushed 125g Lotus Biscoff biscuits until evenly coated, working swiftly as the mixture will begin to firm.
- Add More Marshmallows (The Secret Step!): Gently fold in the reserved 1 cup mini marshmallows with just a couple of stirs, allowing them to remain partially intact for gooey pockets.
- Press into the Tin: Transfer the mixture into the prepared tin and press down lightly with a greased spatula or parchment to form an even layer, avoiding heavy compression.
- Let It Set: Allow the treats to cool and set at room temperature for at least 1 hour before slicing for clean, firm squares.
Notes
- Use fresh marshmallows and crisp cereal for best texture and gooeyness.
- Keep the heat low while melting marshmallows to prevent crystallization and hard treats.
- Do not press the mixture too firmly in the tin to maintain air pockets and softness.
- Vanilla and sea salt are essential to balance the sweetness and enhance the Biscoff flavor.
- Store finished treats in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days; avoid refrigeration to prevent drying.
- These treats freeze well for up to 6 weeks when individually wrapped.
- Variations include white chocolate drizzle, extra Biscoff topping, chocolate base layers, or mix-ins like mini chocolate chips.
