Biscoff Mousse is creamy, airy, easy to make, and hands down my newest dessert obsession!
If you love my chocolate mousse , white chocolate mousse , and pumpkin mousse you’ll fall in love with my Biscoff Mousse, too.
It has notes of caramel and spice from the Biscoff, and I love that it doesn’t feel overly sugary. The balance of flavors makes it an enjoyable and satisfying dessert that doesn’t overwhelm your taste buds.
Its silky, fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth texture and presentation make this dessert elegant yet one of the easiest you’ll ever make! It’s fun for dinner parties or just for a night in!
What is Biscoff Cookie Butter?
- Biscoff cookie butter , sometimes called speculoos spread, is a creamy spread made from Biscoff cookies . These cookies, originally known as speculoos in Belgium, are caramelized biscuits with a distinct flavor profile that includes cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger notes.
- The spread is smooth and creamy, similar in texture to peanut butter or Nutella. There are also crunchy versions available that contain small bits of cookie for added texture.
Ingredients
(For the full recipe, scroll down to the recipe card below)
- Heavy cream : The heavy cream is whipped into medium-stiff peaks to create the mousse’s light, airy texture. It adds richness and creaminess to the dessert. The heavy cream must be cold, and choose a high-fat content with about 36-40% milk fat.
- Cookie butter : I love the Lotus Creamy Biscoff Cookie Butter . It has notes of cinnamon, ginger, allspice, and cloves, and it is just YUMMY!
- Powdered sugar : Adds sweetness and helps stabilize the whipped cream, ensuring the biscoff mousse maintains its structure.
- Cream cheese: I like to add cream cheese to add a slight tanginess and extra creaminess.
- Vanilla extract : complements the spiced notes of the Biscoff cookie butter.
- Biscoff cookies : Crushed and used as a topping if you want!

Expert Tips
- Don’t overbeat the heavy cream: It can be easy to overwork it. Beat until peaks begin to form. The cream will become grainy and separate if you whisk or beat for too long. If this happens, add a few tablespoons more cream and whisk again until smooth.
- Fold the heavy cream in gently and minimally: Fold just until there are no more white streaks. Folding too much leads to a dense mousse.
- Chill out: I recommend letting the mousse chill for at least one hour before serving.
Variations
- Try adding some cocoa powder to make it a chocolate Biscoff mousse.
- Add espresso powder for a coffee-infused flavor.
- Add peanut butter for a nutty twist!
- Top with banana slices; they compliment the spice in the Biscoff well, like in my Biscoff Banana Bread !
Storage
- Store the Biscoff Mousse in the refrigerator for 3 to 5 days. Consume it within the first few days for the best taste and texture.
