Take devilishly rich chocolate brownies and top with a swirled chocolate and cookie butter frosting for an outrageously delicious dessert.

I’ve never really thought to eat biscoff with anything other than white bread. Because seriously, does cookie butter even need any embellishment? I was curious as to what else would go well with the cookie butter so I decided to experiment with chocolate for starters. And I think we can all agree that there is no baked good that could be a better embodiment of chocolate than the darkest fudgiest brownie.
I turned to my trusty cocoa brownie recipe by Alice Medrich. The brownies that this recipe yields have the texture and density of pure fudge when done right. I can bet you a brownie that even the most hardcore chocolate freaks would be satisfied with two squares because they are downright devilish.
The cookie butter stars in the brownie equation in the form of frosting thickly slathered on top.
You can find the recipe for the brownies here. The delicious cookie butter frosting recipe is below.
