Homemade Lotus Biscoff Spread (Print Version)

A creamy spread with caramelized Lotus Biscoff biscuits, golden syrup, and cinnamon for a smooth, flavorful treat.

# What You'll Need:

→ Base

01 - 1 cup Lotus Biscoff cookies, crushed

→ Sweeteners

02 - 2 tablespoons golden syrup

→ Dairy

03 - 3 tablespoons evaporated milk, room temperature

→ Spices and Flavorings

04 - 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
05 - 1/4 teaspoon salt
06 - 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

→ Acid

07 - 1 teaspoon freshly squeezed lemon juice

# Steps to Follow:

01 - Place the Lotus Biscoff cookies inside a ziplock bag and crush them into fine crumbs using a rolling pin. Alternatively, pulse in a food processor until crumbly, taking care not to over-process.
02 - Transfer the crushed cookies to a food processor, then add golden syrup, evaporated milk, cinnamon, salt, vanilla extract, and lemon juice.
03 - Process the mixture for 2 to 3 minutes until it reaches a smooth, creamy consistency. For a crunchier texture, pulse for only 30 seconds.
04 - If the spread is too thick, add more evaporated milk a teaspoon at a time and re-process. For thicker spread, add additional crushed cookies gradually and blend until combined.
05 - Use the spread immediately on baked goods or toast, or transfer to an airtight jar and refrigerate for up to 2 weeks.

# Additional Notes:

01 - Incorporate salt and lemon juice to balance sweetness and enhance flavor complexity.
02 - Room temperature evaporated milk ensures smooth emulsification.
03 - Adjust cinnamon and vanilla to tailor spiciness and aroma.
