The bottom layer is dense and crumbly with a light brown color, resembling a cookie or graham crust. Above this base is a thick, fluffy white cream layer with a soft texture. Next, a thin layer of brown crumbs is scattered within the cream. The top layer has sliced cream-colored pieces scattered evenly, covered with a generous amount of brown crumb topping. Light brown caramel or syrup sauce is drizzled over the entire dessert, dripping down the sides and pooling slightly on the plate. The background shows a softly blurred white marbled surface.

Ingredients

1 box vanilla cake mix
3 large eggs
1 cup water
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1 cup Biscoff spread (plus extra for drizzling)
1 can (14 oz) sweetened condensed milk
1 cup heavy whipping cream
1/4 cup powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
Crushed Biscoff cookies (for garnish)

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and prepare your ingredients.
Step 2: In a large bowl, combine the vanilla cake mix, eggs, water, and vegetable oil. Stir until the batter is smooth.
Step 3: Pour the batter into a greased 9×13-inch baking pan and bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean.
Step 4: Let the cake cool in the pan for 10-15 minutes. This helps prevent crumbling when poking holes.
Step 5: Using the handle of a wooden spoon, gently poke holes evenly all over the cake.
Step 6: In a bowl, whisk together the sweetened condensed milk and 1 cup of Biscoff spread until smooth.
Step 7: Slowly drizzle the Biscoff mixture over the cake, allowing it to seep into the holes.
Step 8: In another bowl, beat the heavy cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until stiff peaks form.
Step 9: Spread the whipped cream generously over the cooled cake.
Step 10: Garnish with crushed Biscoff cookies and drizzle extra Biscoff spread on top.
Step 11: Chill the cake in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight for the best flavor.
Step 12: Slice and enjoy your creamy Biscoff poke cake.

Tips & Variations

For extra crunch, fold some crushed Biscoff cookies into the whipped cream topping before spreading.
If you prefer a lighter sweetness, reduce the amount of sweetened condensed milk slightly.
Add a sprinkle of cinnamon on top for a warm, spicy twist.

Storage

Store the poke cake covered in the refrigerator for up to 4 days to maintain its creamy texture. When ready to serve, you can enjoy it chilled or let it sit at room temperature for 10-15 minutes for a softer bite. Avoid freezing as the whipped topping may lose its texture.

How to Serve

A square slice of layered dessert sits on a white plate with a few crumbs and caramel sauce drips around it. The dessert has three visible layers: a crumbly light brown base, a large thick middle layer of smooth white creamy filling, and a top layer of small white creamy dollops sprinkled generously with fine brown crumbs. Golden caramel sauce drizzles down from the top, running along the sides and pooling slightly on the plate. The background shows a soft focus with a white marbled texture surface beneath the plate. photo taken with an iphone --ar 4:5 --v 7

FAQs

Can I make this cake from scratch instead of using a box mix?

Absolutely! You can use your favorite homemade vanilla cake recipe. Just be sure to bake it in a 9×13-inch pan and adjust baking times as necessary.

What can I substitute for Biscoff spread if I can’t find it?

You can substitute Biscoff spread with peanut butter or cookie butter, though the flavor will vary slightly. For a similar caramelized spice taste, try speculoos cookie butter which is quite similar to Biscoff.
