Instructions
Biscoff Cookie:
Preheat oven to 350° F (177° C) and lightly grease baking sheets.
In food processor, crush Biscoff cookies into fine crumbs. Alternatively, place Biscoff cookies in Ziploc bag and use rolling pins to create fine crumbs.
Measure flour, baking powder, and salt. Whisk together and set aside.
In mixer, cream butter, shortening, and Biscoff spread on medium-high speed, about 3 minutes or until fluffed together. Scrape sides and bottom of bowl.
Add granulated and brown sugars. Mix on medium-high speed for about 3-5 minutes. Scrape sides and bottom of the bowl.
Add sour cream and mix for 1 minute on medium speed. Scrape sides and bottom of bowl.
Add Biscoff cookie crumbs all at once. Mix on medium speed until incorporated, about 2 minutes. Scrape sides and bottom of bowl.
Add flour mixture all at once. On low speed, mix just until all the flour disappears.
Using a 2” or 1” cookie scoop, place dough on lightly greased baking sheets (8 cookies per pan).
Lightly spray bottom of flat-bottomed glass with cooking spray. Dip in sugar and press cookie flat (to about ½-3/4” tall). Leave a rough edge around the cookie.
Dip in sugar again before pressing each cookie.
Bake at 350° F (177° C) for 11 minutes for a 2” cookie scoop and 9 minutes for a 1” cookie scoop. The cookie tops are barely firm. DO NOT overcook!
Allow the cookies to cool in the pan. The cookies will continue to cook slightly.
White Chocolate Ganache:
In a microwave safe bowl, heat cream for 30 seconds. Pour over white chocolate pieces in a separate microwave safe bowl. Stir to combine. Heat in microwave for another 15-20 seconds if needed to completely melt the white chocolate. Set aside to cool at room temperature.
Biscoff Frosting:
Add all ingredients into a small-medium bowl. With hand mixer, mix until fluffy and smooth. Set aside.
White Chocolate Frosting:
In a microwave safe bowl, heat cream for 15-20 seconds. Pour over white chocolate pieces in a separate microwave safe bowl. Stir to combine. Heat in microwave for another 10-15 seconds if needed to completely melt the white chocolate. Set aside to cool slightly.
In bowl of stand mixer, cream butter and shortening until light and fluffy, about 3-5 minutes. Scrape down sides and bottom of bowl.
Add powdered sugar all at once. Mix on low speed until clumps form. Scrape down sides and bottom of bowl.
Add melted white chocolate while mixer is on low speed. Scrape down sides and bottom of bowl. Then, mix on medium-high speed until fluffy and light.
Assemble Cookie:
When cookies are completely cool, place cooled white chocolate ganache in a disposable cake decorating bag (or a Ziploc bag). Cut a small hole in the end of the bag and create a circle of white chocolate ganache in the depressed center of each cookie. Let cool (or place in refrigerator to speed cooling).
Spread 2 teaspoons of Biscoff frosting on top of each cookie (leaving the thin, rough edge around cookie without frosting). The white chocolate ganache may be completely covered.
Swipe 1 teaspoon of white chocolate frosting on top of the Biscoff frosting.
