In a large bowl, beat softened butter, Biscoff cookie butter, and granulated sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in vanilla extract for added flavor.
Gradually add the dry ingredients to the wet mixture, alternating with milk. Begin and end with the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined for a tender crumb.
Divide the batter evenly between the prepared pans. Smooth the tops with a spatula. Bake for 25–30 minutes or until a toothpick inserted into the center comes out clean.
Let the cakes cool in the pans for 10 minutes. Then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely before assembling.
In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
Place one cake layer on a serving plate. Spread the cream cheese filling evenly over the top. Add the second cake layer and gently press down.
In a small bowl, whisk together melted Biscoff cookie butter, powdered sugar, and milk until smooth and pourable.
Pour the glaze over the top of the cake, allowing it to drip down the sides. Sprinkle crushed Biscoff cookies on top and decorate with mini Biscoff cookies for an eye-catching finish.
