Ingredient Swaps and Additions
Feel free to make this cake your own! If you prefer a different flavor, substitute the Biscoff spread with Nutella for a chocolatey twist. You can also add some finely chopped nuts like walnuts or pecans for a delightful crunch. For a lighter cake, consider replacing half the butter with applesauce.

Step-by-Step Instructions
1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C), and grease and line your cake pans.
2. In a large mixing bowl, cream together the softened butter, granulated sugar, and brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy—it should look pale and luscious!
3. Mix in the Biscoff spread, ensuring everything is well combined. Add the eggs one by one, beating well after each addition, followed by the vanilla extract that will fill the room with a beautiful scent.
4. In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. Gradually incorporate this mix into the wet ingredients, alternating with the milk and sour cream, ensuring you start and end with the dry ingredients. This will create a beautifully balanced batter!
5. Divide the batter evenly between the two prepared pans, smoothing the tops. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into the centers comes out clean—resist the urge to open the oven too soon!
6. Allow the cakes to cool in the pans for about 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely.
7. For the frosting, beat the softened butter until creamy. Gradually add the powdered sugar, mixing until smooth. Then, mix in the Biscoff spread, heavy cream, and vanilla extract; the result should be a beautifully fluffy frosting!
8. To assemble, spread a generous layer of frosting on top of one cake layer, then place the second layer on top. Frost the top and sides of the cake, creating a wonderful, enticing aesthetic.
9. Finish off by garnishing with crushed Biscoff cookies and placing whole ones on top for an extra touch of elegance.
10. Slice, serve, and enjoy your heavenly Biscoff Layer Cake Delight!
