Frequently asked questions
What is vanilla speculoos cream ?
Vanilla speculoos cream is a creamy dessert made with vanilla pastry cream, enriched with crumbled speculoos biscuits. It is a delicious combination of sweet and spicy flavors.
Can this recipe be made with Thermomix ?
Yes, absolutely! Thermomix is perfectly suited for making this recipe. It will help in preparing the pastry cream and incorporating the speculoos biscuits easily.
How to achieve a good texture in the pastry cream ?
To achieve a smooth and creamy texture in your pastry cream, it is important to cook the mixture well while constantly stirring. Also, use cornstarch to thicken the preparation.
Should I use vanilla pods or can I use vanilla extract ?
You can use either scraped vanilla pods or a few teaspoons of natural vanilla extract according to your personal preferences. Both options will bring a delicious aroma to your cream.
Should the speculoos biscuits be blended before incorporating them into the cream ?
It depends on the texture you want to achieve. If you prefer a smoother texture, you can blend the speculoos biscuits beforehand until they become a fine powder. Otherwise, crumble them roughly for more visible pieces.
How to prevent the cream from forming a skin on the surface during cooling ?
To prevent the formation of a thin film on the surface of your cream as it cools, place a plastic wrap directly on its surface before refrigerating. This will prevent air from coming into contact with the top of the cream.
Can I replace speculoos biscuits with another type of biscuit ?
Yes, if you don't have speculoos biscuits on hand or prefer to use another type of biscuit for this recipe, you can opt for similar spiced shortbread cookies or gingerbread cookies.
How long should the vanilla cream be cooked in the Thermomix ?
Generally, it takes about 10 minutes at a temperature of 90°C to properly cook and thicken your vanilla cream in the Thermomix. Feel free to slightly adjust the time according to your appliance and personal preferences.
Can other ingredients be added to this recipe ?
Of course! You can customize this recipe by adding ingredients such as chocolate chips, fresh fruits (such as strawberries or raspberries), or even a caramel sauce to accompany your vanilla speculoos cream.
