How to make the Biscotti Queen’s cookies & cream biscookie

“This recipe is a true crowd-pleaser and one of my more easy-to-make Biscookies,” says Biscotti Queen founder and pastry chef Nancy Burkes of this biscookie recipe. As its name suggests, a biscookie is a cross between a biscotti and a cookie with a texture similar to a soft biscotti.

“Everyone loves smashed Oreos, cream filling, chocolate ganache and white chocolate chips. Our Next Level Cookies & Cream Biscookie is a classic flavour with Biscotti Queen’s twist,” says Burkes.
