My Secret Ingredient


BiscoffMy new favorite thing is Biscoff.  Have you tried it?  It is a delicious European spread that can be eaten on toast, fruit or right out of the jar.  Now, it even comes with Biscoff cookies ground in it for a crunchy texture.  Let me tell you, it has become my secret ingredient in a number of baked goods.

The other night we had company for dinner and I needed a quick and easy dessert.  A real fallback is my mother’s chocolate chess pie, a sure winner that is prepared in minutes.  To the mix, I added 1/4 cup of crunchy Biscoff, and the result was scrumptious.  

chocolate chess pieTo make it a little festive, I sprinkled some crushed candy cane bits on top and garnished it with whipped cream.  If you are still looking for a tasty treat for your Christmas dinner, you just might want to give this a try, but you better make an extra for those second servings.

Chocolate Chess Pie

1 unbaked 9″ pie shell

3 eggs, beaten

1 1/2 c. sugar

2 T. flour

4 T. cocoa powder

1/4 c. unsalted butter, melted

1/2 c. evaporated milk

1 t. vanilla

1/4 c. Biscoff, crunchy or smooth

Prick sides and bottom of  pastry shell and bake at 350 for about 5 minutes.

Mix all ingredients and pour into pie shell.  Bake at 350 for 45-50 minutes.

You see, this couldn’t be any simpler, especially when you need a dessert at the last minute.  The Biscoff is a great addition, but if you don’t have it, that’s OK.  The pie is still yummy!

    1. Biscoff seems to be a relatively new product in the American market, but it’s in many markets these days, usually near peanut butter or baking ingredients.

  8. Biscoff is addicting, I love that you used it with chocolate and peppermint!
