Step 5 - Take 4 clean glass cups or ramekins. One after the other, dip four Biscoff cookies in the coffee – don’t soak them but quickly dip them so they’re just wet but not soft. Lay one cookie at the bottom of each cup and gently scoop a layer of mascarpone cream on top. Repeat the process alternating layers of cookies and mascarpone cream, finishing with one layer of cream. Smooth the top with an offset spatula or the back of a spoon, if needed.
