Lotus Biscoff Ice Cream Recipe

This luxuriously creamy dessert combines the deep, caramelised crunch of Biscoff cookies with the velvety smoothness of homemade ice cream.

Beloved by cookie butter fans and ice cream enthusiasts alike, this frozen creation captures the unmistakable flavour of the iconic Belgian biscuit in every dreamy bite.

Whether you’re a die-hard Biscoff devotee or simply craving something rich, spiced, and satisfyingly sweet, this guide will help you make a batch of Lotus Biscoff Ice Cream so divine that you might never go back to store-bought.

In a medium bowl, whisk together the sugar, milk, and a pinch of salt until the sugar dissolves. Add in the Biscoff spread and whisk until fully incorporated. Stir in the heavy cream and vanilla extract. The result should be a creamy, lightly spiced base that smells divine.

Cover the bowl and refrigerate the base for at least 4 hours, or until well chilled. This step enhances the texture and ensures it churns properly. Pour the chilled base into your ice cream maker and churn according to the manufacturer’s instructions (usually about 20–25 minutes).

It should resemble soft-serve when ready. During the last few minutes of churning, fold in crushed Biscoff cookies. For an extra indulgent twist, swirl in melted cookie butter using a spatula—don’t overmix if you want beautiful ribbons throughout.

Transfer the ice cream into a freezer-safe container, smoothing the top. Cover and freeze for at least 2–3 hours, or until firm.
