From-scratch Speculoos Cookie Butter at Home

Yes, it’s true. I made Speculoos Cookies simply so I could make Speculoos cookie butter.

And it doesn’t stop there, you should see what I did with the cookie butter! Cookie butter has been a trending thing for quite a while now. It’s baked into bread, slathered on toast and my regular… enjoyed by the spoonful. It’s deeply good, I’m thinking of all the other cookie butters I can make.

To cook this Kitchen-made Speculoos Cookie Butter Set out:

  • from-scratch Speculoos Cookies
  • unsalted butter
  • sweetened condensed milk
  • evaporated milk
  • vanilla extract

In the bowl of your food processor, fitted with the blade attachment, break up 6 cookies.

Note: this dish was developed using this dish. If using other Speculoos Cookies, the amount will be different and could alter the results.

Secure the lid and process until the crumbs are fine and there aren’t any large pieces of cookie.

To the crumbs, add 1/4 cup softened butter, 1/4 cup sweetened condensed milk, 2 tablespoons evaporated milk and a splash of vanilla extract.

Once the lid is secured, process until it resembles peanut butter. This is close, but not quite there yet.

Using a rubber spatula, scrape down the sides to make sure all the ingredients are being incorporated.

This is what it should look like.

Creamy. Dreamy. Savory.

It’s magical stuff, this cookie butter.
