Biscoff Tiramisu is a delicious twist on the classic Italian dessert that I love making when I want something a little different yet equally indulgent. Instead of traditional ladyfingers soaked in coffee, I use Biscoff cookies layered with a creamy mascarpone filling, all infused with the warm spiced flavor of those famous caramelized biscuits. It’s no-bake, incredibly easy to prepare, and always a crowd-pleaser.

Why You’ll Love This Recipe

I love this Biscoff tiramisu because it takes the best parts of traditional tiramisu and gives them a unique spin. The spiced, caramel-like flavor of the Biscoff cookies pairs beautifully with the creamy mascarpone mixture, and it all comes together without even turning on the oven. It’s perfect for dinner parties, holidays, or anytime I want to impress with minimal effort. Plus, it gets even better after a night in the fridge.

Ingredients

(Here’s a tip: Check out the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)

Biscoff cookies (Lotus Biscoff or similar speculoos cookies)
Mascarpone cheese
Heavy cream
Powdered sugar
Vanilla extract
Strong coffee or espresso, cooled
Biscoff spread (optional, for added richness)
Crushed Biscoff cookies or cocoa powder (for topping)

Directions

I start by brewing strong coffee or espresso and letting it cool to room temperature.
In a large bowl, I whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
I fold in the mascarpone cheese gently until the mixture is smooth and creamy. For extra Biscoff flavor, I sometimes stir in a spoonful of Biscoff spread.
I quickly dip each Biscoff cookie into the cooled coffee — just a second or two so they don’t get soggy.
I layer the soaked cookies in a dish, then spread a layer of the mascarpone mixture over them.
I repeat the layers until all ingredients are used, finishing with a layer of the cream on top.
To finish, I sprinkle crushed Biscoff cookies or a light dusting of cocoa powder over the top.
I refrigerate the tiramisu for at least 4 hours, but overnight is best for flavor and texture.

Servings and timing

This recipe makes about 6 to 8 servings, depending on the portion size. It takes around 20 minutes to assemble, plus at least 4 hours to chill before serving.

Variations

I sometimes make a version with layers of banana slices or chocolate chips for extra richness. If I want to serve this to kids or those avoiding caffeine, I dip the cookies in decaf coffee or warm milk with a dash of cinnamon. For a boozy version, I add a splash of coffee liqueur to the espresso. I’ve also made individual portions in jars for a portable dessert option.

storage/reheating

I store the Biscoff tiramisu tightly covered in the fridge for up to 4 days. It’s a great make-ahead dessert, and I actually think the flavor improves the longer it sits. I never reheat it — this dessert is best enjoyed chilled straight from the fridge.

FAQs

Can I make this dessert ahead of time?

Yes, I usually make it the day before serving. It needs time to chill and set, and the flavors develop beautifully overnight.

What can I use instead of mascarpone?

If I can’t find mascarpone, I mix equal parts cream cheese and heavy cream to mimic the texture and flavor. It’s not quite the same, but it works in a pinch.

Do Biscoff cookies get too soft in tiramisu?

They soften as they chill, just like ladyfingers in traditional tiramisu. I dip them quickly in coffee to keep them from getting mushy.

Can I make this without coffee?

Absolutely. I use milk with a bit of vanilla or cinnamon as a coffee alternative when serving to kids or avoiding caffeine.

How long will Biscoff tiramisu last in the fridge?

It lasts up to 4 days in the refrigerator. I just make sure it’s tightly covered to keep it fresh.

Conclusion

Biscoff Tiramisu is one of those desserts I keep coming back to — it’s creamy, spiced, and effortlessly elegant. I love how simple it is to put together and how impressive it looks and tastes once it’s chilled. Whether I’m hosting a dinner or just want a sweet treat on hand, this no-bake twist on tiramisu always hits the spot.
