Method
 

Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 180°C (350°F) and grease two 8-inch cake tins with butter or non-stick spray.
  2. In a mixing bowl, sift together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, baking soda, baking powder, salt, and ground cinnamon.
  3. In another bowl, beat the unsalted butter, vegetable oil, and light brown sugar until light and creamy.
  4. Add three large eggs one at a time, followed by Biscoff spread and vanilla extract, mixing until smooth.
  5. Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mix, alternating with buttermilk, folding gently until just combined.
  6. Fold in the crushed Biscoff cookies evenly throughout the batter.
  7. Divide the batter between the cake tins, tap each tin to release air bubbles, and bake for 37 to 40 minutes.
  8. Cool the cakes in their pans for about 20 minutes before transferring to a wire rack to cool completely.
  9. For the frosting, beat together crushed Biscoff cookies, softened butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk until fluffy.
  10. Level the cooled cakes if necessary, frost between layers, and cover the top and sides with frosting.
  11. Decorate with whole Biscoff cookies and drizzle with additional Biscoff spread before serving.
