Instructions
Make Cupcakes:
Preheat the oven to 160°C Fan. Place the cupcake liners in a 12-hole muffin/ cupcake tin. Alternatively, use silicone cupcake moulds. You will need 6 for this recipe.
In a large bowl, using a handheld electric mixer, beat the brown sugar and egg for 2 minutes, until light and creamy.
Add the oil, biscoff spread and milk, and beat again for 1 minute, until fully combined.
In a separate bowl, mix flour, a pinch of salt and baking powder.
Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and fold gently into a cohesive batter. Do not overmix.
Divide the cupcake batter between 6 cupcake moulds/ liners.
Bake in the centre of the oven for 20 minutes. Take the cupcakes out of the oven and leave them to firm up for 10 minutes. If you used paper liners, leave the cupcakes in them, but if you used silicone moulds, you can take the cupcakes out of them and place on a wire rack to cool down completely.
Make The Frosting:
Whilst the biscoff cupcakes are cooling, make the biscoff cream cheese frosting.
Beat room temperature cream cheese and biscoff for a minute until combined, making sure to scrape down the sides of the bowl midway through beating.
Soft in the icing/ powdered sugar and beat again. The frosting should be of pipeable consistency. If it's too thick, add a teaspoon of milk, if it 's too loose, add some more icing sugar.
Pipe the frosting on top of each cupcake and decorate them with biscoff biscuit crumbs and half a biscuit.

Notes
To Decorate:The easiest decoration you can imagine is using a star nozzle on your piping bag, and simply swirling the frosting on top of your cupcakes. That's it - they will look pretty and taste delicious! But if you want to take your delicious biscoff cupcakes a step further, here are a few options to consider:
Crush 1-2 biscuits to make biscoff cookie crumbs and sprinkle some on top of each cupcake.
Stick half a lotus biscuit into the frosting.
Sprinkle some instant coffee powder on top - biscoff and coffee is a match made in heaven!
Melt some cookie butter and drizzle some on top of the frosting.
