I adore cookies and ice cream. From the classic, old-fashioned recipes like 3-Ingredient Peanut Butter and Homemade Vanilla Ice Cream, to the gloriously simple combination of Ice Cream Cookie Sandwiches.

So, I jump at pretty much every chance I get to play with a cookie flavor of ice cream. And, let me tell you, I’m thrilled with how this Biscoff ice cream recipe turned out.

The texture of this ice cream is simply perfect. The cookies are just the right kind of crunchy, and the ice cream is deliciously smooth. Dig in with a big spoon, because this treat is something else.

Just be aware that this is some seriously rich ice cream. I usually figure a batch of homemade ice cream to be 5-6 servings. However, we tend to enjoy this dessert in smaller portions.

Biscoff Ice Cream

I’d be remiss if I didn’t offer up some personal recommendations for how to top a bowl of biscoff cookie butter ice cream. Because, if there’s one thing better than a bowl of ice cream… it’s a fully loaded bowl of ice cream.

I love this flavor with a drizzle of salted caramel sauce. And, I’m not sure I’ve ever met a bowl of ice cream that didn’t go with my homemade hot fudge sauce. Or, you could up the ante with a peanut butter ice cream topping.

Each of these comes together in just minutes. Yet, they add so much to a dessert. Pick any one or all of them. There’s no judging when it comes to ice cream!

These are my favorite inexpensive containers for storing ice cream. They’re perfect for gifting (who doesn’t love homemade ice cream?) storage, re-using, etc. I write the flavors on the lids with a sharpie and it washes off with dish soap.

I have more ice cream scoops than I can keep track of at this point and I definitely play favorites. This ice cream scoop does the best job ever of cutting through firm ice cream and still delivers a pretty scoop. It gets bonus points for being one of the least expensive scoops I own as well.

Begin by stirring together the melted cookie butter butter, brown sugar, and salt in a large bowl. Then, stir in the cream and whisk to a smooth consistency. Slowly add the milk and vanilla, and whisk again.

Pour into the ice cream machine and churn according to the manufacturer’s directions. While the ice cream is churning, warm ⅓ cup cookie butter in the microwave for about a minute. Stir until smooth and liquid. Set aside.

When the ice cream finishes churning, transfer about a third of the ice cream to an airtight, freezer-safe container and drizzle with about a third of the cookie butter mixture. Then, sprinkle generously with cookie pieces.

Repeat these layers twice more and swirl with a knife just a couple of times to mix throughout. Then, cover with a lid and place in the freezer until firm enough to scoop. Scoop into bowls and serve with extra cookies, if desired.
