I’m excited to be back again sharing a sweet recipe featuring one of my favorite ingredients: Cookie Butter.

Please tell me you’ve had cookie butter. It’s like the best spread on the planet! Peanut butter and Nutella don’t have a chance against this stuff.

If you’ve ever had those little cookies they give you on an airplane — that’s what cookie butter tastes like. It’s a buttery, spicy cookie spread that tastes good on everything! In fact, Biscoff, the company that makes those airplane snack cookies, also makes a cookie butter spread. And you can also find different varieties of cookie butter at Trader Joe’s or your grocery store in creamy and crunchy varieties, just like peanut butter.

My Cookie Butter Dip is great for parties served with a tray of fruit, pretzels, Graham crackers, and cookies.

Or you could even use it as a no-bake cheesecake filling. It would be AH-MAZING with a crust made from Biscoff cookies.

I got the idea for this recipe one night while browsing Pinterest. I saw a recipe for Nutella Cheesecake Dip from Cooking Classy and my thoughts immediately turned to the jar of Speculoos Crunchy Cookie Butter I had in the pantry. Eureka moment!

I’m also a homebody, who spends a lot of time in the kitchen and craft room. This time of year, in particular, I really kick the homemaking into high gear to get ready for Christmas and the holiday entertaining season.
