Instructions
- 1
Preheat the oven to 180ºc/160ºfan and line three 20cm/8inch round cake tins with baking parchment – leave to the side.
- 2
In a stand mixer, beat together the unsalted butter and light brown soft sugar for a few minutes until light and fluffy.
- 3
Add in the self-raising flour, eggs, baking powder (if using) and vanilla and beat again briefly until combined.
- 4
Divide the mixture between the three tins and smooth it over – bake for 25-30minutes until the cakes are golden and when the cake springs back (skewer should also come out clean)!
- 5
Once baked, leave the cakes to cool in their tins for 10 minutes or so, and then remove and leave to cool fully on a wire rack.
- 6
Beat the room temperature unsalted butter with an electric mixer for a couple of minutes to loosen it
- 7
Gradually add the icing sugar on a slow speed until it is combined then speed the mixer up and mix for 3-4 minutes until thoroughly combined and smooth.

Add in the biscoff spread to the buttercream and continue mixing, and gradually add the boiling water until you reach the desired texture if it is needed! Keep on beating for 5 minutes until whipped and silky smooth!

Using your favourite piping tip, I used a large round tip, pipe the buttercream onto the bottom layer of the cake. Add the second layer, and pipe buttercream on again!

Add on the third layer of the cake and pipe on the rest of the buttercream.

Drizzle over some melted biscoff spread, and add on some biscuits, crushed biscuits and some sprinkles. Alternatively you can just slather the buttercream on instead! Enjoy!
