Key Ingredients
🍪 200g Lotus Biscoff biscuits
🧈 100g unsalted butter, melted
🥛 200ml double cream
🥄 2 tbsp icing sugar
☕ 2 tbsp strong brewed coffee, cooled
🍫 200g milk chocolate, melted
Instructions
1️⃣ Prepare the base: Crush the Biscoff biscuits into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a zip-top bag and crushing them with a rolling pin. Add the melted butter and mix well until the crumbs are evenly moistened.
2️⃣ Press the base: Press the biscuit mixture firmly into the base of a 23cm tart tin. Use the back of a spoon to create an even layer. Chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to firm up.
3️⃣ Make the filling: In a large bowl, whip the double cream until soft peaks form. Gradually add the icing sugar and continue whipping until stiff peaks form.
4️⃣ Layer the coffee: Gently fold in half of the cooled brewed coffee into the whipped cream. Set aside a small amount of the coffee-infused cream for decorating.
5️⃣ Assemble the tart: Spread the coffee-infused whipped cream evenly over the chilled biscuit base.
6️⃣ Drizzle chocolate: Drizzle the melted milk chocolate over the whipped cream layer.
7️⃣ Decorate: Pipe or spread the remaining coffee cream in swirls on top of the chocolate. Arrange a few whole Biscoff biscuits on top for extra crunch and visual appeal.
8️⃣ Chill: Refrigerate the tart for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld and the cream to set completely.
Handy Tips
- Use a food processor for super-fine biscuit crumbs for a smoother base.
- Don’t over-whip the cream, or it might become grainy.
- Ensure your coffee is completely cooled before adding it to the cream to prevent the cream from curdling.
Heat Control
This recipe is no-bake, so there’s no need to worry about heat control! The only heat involved is melting the butter and chocolate, which should be done gently to avoid burning.
Crunch Factor
The delightful crunch comes from the Biscoff biscuit base and the whole Biscoff biscuits used for decoration. The creamy filling provides a lovely contrast in texture.
Pro Kitchen Tricks
- For an even richer flavor, use Biscoff spread instead of melted chocolate for a layer of the filling.
- Add a pinch of instant espresso powder to the coffee for a more intense coffee flavor.
- Use a piping bag for creating beautiful swirls of cream on top.
Storage Tips
Store leftover Biscoffmissu tart in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Cover it tightly with plastic wrap or store it in an airtight container to prevent it from drying out.
Gift Packaging Ideas

Flavor Variations

Troubleshooting
- Cream won’t whip: Ensure your cream is very cold and that your bowl and whisk are also chilled.
- Base is too crumbly: Add a little more melted butter to the biscuit crumbs.
- Filling is too runny: Whip the cream for a longer time to achieve stiffer peaks.
