Ingredients

Scale

Ice Cream Base

2 1/2 cups heavy whipping cream
14 ounce canned sweetened condensed milk
1 teaspoon vanilla bean paste or vanilla extract
1 teaspoon espresso powder
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons coffee liqueur (such as Kahlúa)

Add-ins

1/2 cup crushed Biscoff cookies, plus more for garnish
1/3 cup Biscoff cookie butter

Instructions

Whip the Cream: In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment or using an electric hand mixer, add the heavy cream. Whisk on medium speed until stiff peaks form, about 7-10 minutes. The cream is ready when it holds a straight peak when the whisk is lifted.
Mix Flavor Base: In a large bowl, combine the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla bean paste, espresso powder, kosher salt, and coffee liqueur. Stir until all ingredients are fully integrated and smooth.
Fold in Whipped Cream and Cookies: Gently fold half of the whipped cream into the condensed milk mixture to lighten it, stirring carefully until smooth. Then fold in the remaining whipped cream along with the crushed Biscoff cookies, combining everything gently to maintain the airy texture.
Layer with Cookie Butter: Pour half of the ice cream mixture into a 10-inch cake pan or 9×5 inch loaf pan. Dollop the Biscoff cookie butter evenly across the surface. Top with the remaining ice cream mixture and optionally sprinkle additional crushed cookies on top for garnish.
Freeze to Set: Cover the pan tightly with plastic wrap and place it in the freezer. Allow the ice cream to set overnight or for at least 8 hours. Once frozen, scoop into bowls or cones to serve and enjoy the creamy espresso and Biscoff flavors.

Notes

This recipe requires no ice cream maker and relies on whipping cream for creaminess.
Use espresso powder for a strong coffee flavor; adjust amount to taste.
Adding coffee liqueur enhances flavor but can be omitted for a non-alcoholic version.
