Biscoff Banoffee Box … dessert to fall in love with!


Biscoff Banoffee Box, love at first bite. It’s such fun when a handful of ingredients come together so deliciously. We love a good banoffee at home, and this Lotus Biscoff twist to the banoffee was everything good. Also very easy to make as well. And oh my, the flavours!

Addictive good and a little guilt free perhaps with a banana within, this is one dessert you need to try soon. If you don’t have a dessert box, you can layer it in trifle bowls, stem glasses or even shallow serving dish. It is so good!!!

Biscoff Banoffee Box

This is love at first bite. It's such fun when a handful of ingredients come together so deliciously. We love a good banoffee at home, and this Biscoff twist to the banoffee was everything good. It's really easy to make as well.

Ingredients

Biscuit base

  • 40 g Biscoff biscuits
  • 10 g clarified butter/ ghee

Cream layer

  • 150 g cream 25% fat, chilled
  • 1-2 tbsp icing sugar
  • 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • 150 g mascarpone cream chilled

Biscoff Spread layer

  • 80 g Biscoff Spread melted

Miscellaneous

  • 3 Biscoff biscuit crumbs
  • 1/2 banana sliced

Garnish

  • Biscoff Spread & biscuit crumbs to finish

Instructions

Biscuit base

  • In a hand blender, finely grind the biscuits, then stir in the clarified butter/ghee. Turn into the prepared box and gently press into place. Don’t pack the crumbs in too tightly.

Cream layer

  • Place the chilled cream, icing sugar and vanilla extract in a large bowl and whip at high speed to medium soft peaks.
  • Add the chilled mascarpone and whip until just smooth. Don’t overwhip else you’ll loosen the cream too much.

Assemble

  • Pipe half the cream over the biscuit base and level off.
  • Pour over melted Biscoff spread and place in the freezer for 10 minutes for the Biscoff spread to firm up.
  • Top the spread with banana slices.
  • Scatter biscuit crumbs to cover the banana slices, then finally pipe over the remaining cream.
  • To finish, drizzle some melted Biscoff spread over the top, edge the box with Biscoff crumbs, and top with a biscuit if you like.

Fudgy Eggless Chocolate Brownies… Joyeux Noël

Fudgy Eggless Chocolate Brownies … 6 ingredient, indulgent, one bowl, festive and so special! Small batch brownies are always fun and these are no exception. The eggless chocolate brownies come together in minutes and each bite is deep, delicious, fudgy and satisfying. These are beautiful for the holiday season, Joyeux Noël!

’tis the season and it’s the best time to enjoy a ton of baking with loads of flavour. I’ve had a field day this winter from loads of cookies to cakes to tarts … and now these eggless chocolate brownies. It’s wonderful how a splash of colour or an add of spices can uplift the spirits, make the holidays so fun! Try these wholegrain gingerbread cookies with a heart!

Pistachios and cranberries from the  United States Department of Agriculture made me do this! I’ve loved working with them and loads of nuts, berries and produce from America this holiday season. It’s amazing how versatile nuts and berries are, how much you can do with them! You can find some of the recipes here on reels on my Instagram feed, while others should show up here soon.

Love this beautiful ceramic bowl from Pinklay.

Do follow me on Instagram because most of my recipe assembly videos show up there on my handle @passionateaboutbaking with recipes shared to my recipe handle @pabrecipes

I love how colourful and Christmassy these brownies turned out to be. I’ve tried them with a gluten free sorghum/jowar ka aata as well as with all purpose flour and they work well both ways. My holiday season celebrates loads of colour so the bright green pistachios and deep red cranberries really set the mood right! It’s a simple good recipe that uses pantry staples, things you might have in the kitchen already.

Make sure you use quality ingredients to enjoy these and that’s all that really matters. With winter here, temperatures freezing this December, we’re at below 10C in the northern plains of India. With no central heating and freezing cold, the only important thing is to get the brownie batter into the tin as soon as it’s stirred together ?.

These are pretty fuss free and deeply chocolate, deeply fudgy too. Cut the eggless brownies into 4 for an indulgent serving, else into 9 squares for good nibbles. Either which way, they’re delicious.

Eggless Pistachio Cranberry Chocolate Cake… Christmas special!

Eggless Pistachio Cranberry Chocolate Cake … Layers of chocolate deliciousness uplifted with bits of pistachios and dried cranberries through the cake. This cake is perfect for Christmas with the flavours and colours coming together so well! It’s the most wonderful time of the year and I hope you are baking a ton as well!

That’s a bit of what I’ve baked the last few weeks! This is the best time to bake and one of my favourite seasons. With winter at it’s peak, it’s wonderful being in the kitchen next to a warm oven. It’s also a time when inspiration is at it’s peak and ingredients and ideas dance in my head! Can you tell?

I’ve really enjoyed creating recipes for the United States Department of Agriculture using their wonderful produce – pistachios, almonds, walnuts, pecans, cranberries, even frozen blueberries. You can find some of the recipes here on reels on my Instagram feed, and now this Eggless Chocolate Pistachio Cranberry Cake. Do follow me on Instagram to see my recipes assembly videos on @passionateaboutbaking with recipes on my recipe handle @pabrecipes

At the risk of repeating myself, nothing screams the colours of Christmas better than bright green pistachios and jewel like deep red dried cranberries, both of which I’ve used a load over these holidays. I’m absolutely loving it! Oh, and there’s a giveaway on my Instagram handle with the United States Department of Agriculture. Do head HERE to enter!

That lace collar though!! I love making a chocolate collar for cakes, a touch I always find special, one I’ve done for years. It elevates a simple cake to something special. It’s as simple as piping melted chocolate on a strip of parchment, waiting for it to get a little firm, then wrapping it around a frosted cake. Set the cake in the fridge until the chocolate is firm, 10-15 minutes usually, peel off the parchment…TADA!

Simply Delicious Eggless Pistachio Cranberry Christmas Cake

Eggless Pistachio Cranberry Christmas Cake … so simple to make and simply delicious, this is a festive bake that reminds you of the good old school bakery cakes. Buttery, rich and ever so satisfying, it’s one I have baked several times this holiday season. This makes a great gift too!

With things being quite busy on the home front, I’m struggling to share Christmas recipes on the blog and I guess we still have a few days left, so here we go! Nothing screams the colours of Christmas better than bright green pistachios and jewel like deep red dried cranberries, both of which I’ve used a load over these holidays.

I’ve collaborated with United States Department of Agriculture to create and share recipes using their wonderful produce – pistachios, almonds, walnuts, pecans, cranberries, even frozen blueberries. You can find some of the recipes here on reels on my Instagram feed, while others should show up here soon. Do follow me on Instagram because most of my recipes assembly videos show up there on my handle @passionateaboutbaking with recipes on my recipe handle @pabrecipes

The Eggless Pistachio Cranberry Christmas Cake is reminiscent of the old style bakery cakes that we devoured as kids, memories coming alive with every bite. The crumb is rich and light, the sweetness just perfect and the bite of pistachios and cranberries so satisfying. I like to blanch and peel the pistachios to get the beautiful green and though it’s a slightly tedious job, the results are so bright and cheerful. I save the peels for smoothies or soup so nothing goes waste!

Oh and I forgot to say that I flavoured the cake with fresh orange zest and it made ALL the difference. The colour was a warm orange and the flavours paired so well with the nuts and berries. I love that simple, natural everyday flavours can add so much oomph to a simple bake, lift it up so effortlessly, so deliciously. The chocolate chips are optional of course but we loved them in there because chocolate ♥!

    Eggless Chocolate Tart Cake … delicious holiday desserts

    Eggless Chocolate Tart Cake … deeply delicious and very indulgent, and oh so pretty as well, we absolutely loved how the tart cake turned out. With the holiday season here, this is a great option for your dessert corner. It ticks off all the boxes, the first of course being it’s show stopper good looks! It’s egg free, it’s a one bowl cake recipe, it’s quite easily made vegan and it’s drop dead simple!

    As you might have guessed, I love everything about tarts. I got this new tart tin that I’ve been dying to use. I was so pleased to see how well the cake baked up in it, left the sides and base so easily and looked so pretty! You’ll see me using it often!!

    There’s something about the pairing, strawberries with chocolate, that makes dessert seem all the more special. The sweet luscious berries compliment the deep, smooth chocolate, while the pop of colour makes you want to dive right in! It’s pairing I use often, perhaps too often, but I’m not complaining!

    This eggless chocolate tart cake is inspired by a dark chocolate strawberry pudding from my cookbook, that I published with Penguin in October last year.

    Buy my cookbook …. Passionate About Baking, Chocolate

    That book is my little labour of love, and I’m constantly diving into it to recreate my own recipes, or use bits and bobs from it for inspiration. The tart cake is one such example and it turned out just great! With 75% of the recipes eggfree, my recipes use simple everyday ingredients, things you will probably already have in your pantry. I also love that you can mix and match elements from it to create new desserts, something that I do often myself.

    It’s drop dead easy too. Put all the ingredients for the cake into a large bowl and give them a good whisk. That’s it; the eggless chocolate cake batter is ready. Pop it into the oven for 30 minutes, cool, trim the base if you like, turn it upside down and voila, you have the perfect indentation for a filling! Moisten with Cointreau and top with the luscious 2 ingredient chocolate filling. The longest wait is for it the filling to set …
