Expert Tips

  • As it cools, the sauce will thicken! If it gets too thick, heat in a microwave safe jar or container in 10 second intervals and stir until you reach the desired consistency.
  • Don't scorch or burn your cream! It should just be simmering and then remove it from the heat.

Storage

Store extra sauce in airtight container or mason jar. To reheat, put microwave safe jar or container in microwave for 10 seconds. Stir and repeat until hot (about 4 intervals)

Recipe FAQ

What is Cookie Butter?

Cookie Butter is a spread made from ground-up spice cookies called speculoos, they’re the European version of gingerbread cookies. Europeans make Speculoos around St. Nicolas Day, and similar to the US, families have different ways of creating their recipes with different spices and in varying shapes and sizes.

Where can I buy Cookie Butter?

Usually, I stock up on Cookie Butter at my local Trader Joes. You can find the closest one to you here! If you don’t have a Trader Joe’s in your area. I’ve also been able to find cookie butter at Target but it's called Biscoff spread from Lotus.

Can I cut this recipe in half or double or triple it?

Yes! This recipe is easy to cut in half, double or triple it.

Can I freeze this recipe?

I don't recommend freezing this recipe.
