Christmas gift idea: Homemade Biscoff desserts
MANILA – Can’t decide what to give your friends and colleagues this Christmas? Delight them with these easy homemade treats.
Biscoff suggests these two recipes that can be used as gifts or treats for the office or barkada Christmas party. Each recipe only takes a few minutes to prepare and has minimal ingredients.
Rice Crispy Treats with Biscoff Spread
Ingredients:
3 tablespoons butter
1/3 cup of Biscoff spread
1 10-oz package of about 40 regular marshmallows or 4 cups of miniature marshmallows
6 cups rice crispy cereal
Directions:
Melt butter and Biscoff spread in a large, non-stick saucepan over low heat.
Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted.
Mix in rice crispy cereal and stir until well-coated.
Spread the mixture using a buttered spatula evenly on a 13x9x2-inch pan coated with cooking spray.
Cut into 2-inch squares when cool.
No-bake Biscoff Bars
Ingredients:
2 cups powdered sugar
2 cups finely ground graham cracker crumbs
1 cup melted unsalted butter
1 cup Biscoff spread
4 tablespoons Biscoff spread
1 1/2 large dark chocolate bars
Directions:
In a large bowl, mix the powdered sugar and graham cracker crumbs. In a separate bowl, mix the butter and a cup of Biscoff spread. Pour the dry ingredients and mix.
Press the crust into a 9x9-inch pan lined with parchment paper. Use a pastry roller or hand-press into the pan.
Break the chocolate bar into bite-sized chunks. Place in a small microwave-proof bowl and cover with 4 tablespoons of Biscoff spread. Microwave the mixture in 30-second segments, stirring in between until smooth. Pour the mixture over the Biscoff crust.
