EGGNOG LAYER CAKE 🤍🎄I put a Biscoff spin on EGGNOG LAYER CAKE 🤍🎄I put a Biscoff spin on this holiday cake favorite from my blog + it turned out AMAZING: layers of eggnog-infused cake, spiced eggnog buttercream, and @lotusbiscoff cookie crumbles, topped with a Biscoff cookie butter drip! ⁣
⁣
This recipe originally has an eggnog ganache drip (also so delish!), but if you want to try the cookie butter drip here’s what you do: melt about 1/2 Cup of Biscoff cookie butter in the microwave for 20 seconds until it’s pourable consistency, then add it to a piping bag and drip onto the cake. For best results, make sure the frosting is nice and chilled before you drip ❄️⁣
