I discovered Biscoff cookie butter while visiting The Netherlands and tried it on my toast. It reminded me of peanut butter because of the texture. As soon as I got back to Canada, I searched far and wide to find a jar.
With no luck, I put my cookie butter baking ideas on halt until further notice. Fast forward some time later, and I stumbled upon jars of cookie butter in my local European grocery store. Hurray! Today I’m sharing one of many cookie butter recipes to come; cookie butter chocolate chunk bars. These bars are loaded with chopped up chocolate and have that unmatched cookie butter flavour.
What is Cookie Butter?
Cookie butter, also known as Biscoff spread, is a ground spice cookie spread. It is creamy, with texture similar to peanut butter or Nutella, and can easily be placed on toast, crepes, or waffles.
The spice cookies that are crushed up that make the cookie butter are called Speculoos. They are a popular cookie in Europe, with spices such as cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger inside. The flavour is caramelized and gingerbread-like. They are often served during the holidays, and with tea!
Just like regular peanut butter or Nutella, you store cookie butter in your pantry.

Fabulous! My only little tweaks — I added 1/4 tsp of ground ginger and a 1/2 tsp of kosher salt with the cinnamon and tossed in 1/4 cup of toasted pecans with the chocolate chunks. Otherwise, this was perfection … and the molasses is the perfect BFF with the cookie butter.
Hi Jackie! Love the tweaks you did – especially with the pecans! That must’ve been an unreal combo. I’m glad it turned out delicious. Thanks for the comment! 🙂
