What You’ll Need

Gather these simple ingredients to make your Biscoff ice cream:

• 1 ⅔ cups full-fat coconut milk
• ¼ cup light brown sugar
• ½ cup condensed milk (try vegan for a dairy-free option)
• 1 cup heavy cream (vegan cream works too)
• 2 tablespoons Lotus Biscoff Cookie Butter Spread
• A pinch of salt

Substitutes: Instead of coconut milk, use almond or soy milk. If you want less sweetness, cut back on the brown sugar or use a sugar alternative.

Step-by-Step Guide

Let’s get started on this delicious ice cream!

1. Mix It Up: In a large saucepan, combine the coconut milk, brown sugar, condensed milk, heavy cream, Biscoff spread, and salt. Whisk over medium heat until everything is blended and warm.
2. Chill: Pour the mixture into the fridge to cool completely—overnight is best.
3. Churn: When chilled, pour the mixture into your ice cream maker. Churn it for about 50 minutes.
4. Add Swirls: Just before it’s done, pause the machine and drizzle in some melted Biscoff spread. This adds beautiful swirls and extra flavor!
5. Freeze: Transfer your ice cream to a freezer-friendly container. Let it freeze for at least 2 hours before serving.
6. Enjoy: When it’s time to dig in, let the ice cream sit at room temperature for about 10 minutes. This makes scooping easier! Serve in bowls or cones and enjoy every creamy bite.

This recipe is super flexible. Here are some ways you can customize it:
