Ingredients and substitutions
- Espresso Shot: Use your preferred method to brew a strong, hot espresso shot. Use one or two shots of espresso, depending on how strong you would like it. You can also use instant coffee powder or strong-brewed coffee.
- Lotus Biscoff Cookie Butter: This is the star ingredient, and there's no direct substitution for its unique flavor. It is made from Lotus Speculoos cookies and has the same consistency as peanut butter. You can find it on Amazon or at your local grocery store.
- Milk: I used 1% milk, but you can use 2% milk or whole milk. And if you want to make it vegan, use almond milk, coconut milk, oat milk, or soy milk. The barista-style milk froths up beautifully.
- Brown Sugar: This is used to add a bit of sweetness. You can also use maple syrup, honey, agave syrup, or brown sugar simple syrup.

How to make a Biscoff latte
Step 1: Start by brewing a hot espresso shot. I used an espresso machine, but you can use strong coffee brewed with your French Press, Moka pot, or strong instant coffee.
Step 2: Combine the brown sugar and a generous tablespoon and a half of cookie butter spread in a large mug. Whisk until blended.
Step 3: For that frothy, coffee shop-worthy finish, use a milk frother or a steam wand if you have one. Froth your milk of choice until it's nice and foamy, then pour it over your hot espresso shot. If you don't have a steamer, warm milk in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir continuously to avoid scorching. You want the milk to be hot but not boiling.
Step 4: Top your creamy Biscoff latte with whipped cream and a crushed Biscoff cookie or a sprinkle of cinnamon. Enjoy immediately!
