Biscoff Gingersnap Brownies {& A Cookbook Giveaway!}

Chocolaty, fudgy brownies get a chewy gingersnap crust and are then topped off with a creamy Biscoff buttercream in these Biscoff Gingersnap Brownies...

I think by now you all are well aware of my obsession with and love for Biscoff spread, aka cookie butter.  It started with that very first spoonful. And trust me.... that is all it takes to begin the addiction, folks. ;)

So, you all can probably guess at how thrilled I was to discover that there is a cookbook out there filled with just recipes that use Biscoff spread and cookies!  

As soon as I made this discovery, I ordered my copy from Amazon- The Biscoff Cookie & Spread Cookbook from Katrina Bahl of Katrina's Kitchen.  It was also pretty nice to know that there happens to be another food blogger out there who shares my affinity for all things cookie butter. 

I had been kicking around an idea for a gingersnap crusted brownie for a couple of weeks now. I just love the combination of rich chocolate with spicy ginger.  But it needed something just a little more... 

As I was flipping through my copy of The Biscoff Cookie & Spread Cookbook, I came to the recipe for Biscoff Buttercream and I knew that I found the missing component for my brownie recipe idea.  The creamy buttercream with it's spiced buttery cookie flavor turned out to be just the icing on the cake (ahem... brownies) I was looking for for this new sweet treat recipe... 

Pumpkin Biscoff Mousse Pie

This Pumpkin Biscoff Mousse Pie is not your typical Thanksgiving pumpkin pie! So rich and creamy and decadent... your guests will think you spent all day making this no-bake pie!

In just two days, we will all be pining for that big Thanksgiving dinner, salivating over the smell of the turkey roasting, watching the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade, and counting down the minutes until we can all congregate around the table, give thanks, and dig in.

Then after a delicious, belt-loosening dinner, we will relegate ourselves to couches and arm chairs, watch a little football, and take a breather until Thanksgiving dessert is served.

Wait... dessert! Have you forgotten that you are in charge of a dessert or maybe had just resolved to picking up a pie or two at the grocery store because time is running out?
