Equipment

  • Food Processor/Blender

Ingredients

  • 9 oz Biscoff Cookies or other crispy gingersnap cookies
  • 1 tsp vanilla
  • 2 tbsp coconut oil in its solid form
  • 2 tbsp light brown sugar
  • 10 tbsp boiling water
  • ½ tsp cinnamon

Instructions

  • Pulse 9 oz Biscoff Cookies in a food processor or blender until very fine crumbs are created.
  • Add 1 tsp vanilla, 2 tbsp coconut oil, and 2 tbsp light brown sugar into the crumbs and about 5 tbsp of the boiling water.
  • Blend the cookie butter together. At this point it will be pretty thick.
  • Add the remaining 5 tbsp boiling water one tablespoon at a time, blending between each addition until your desired consistency is reached. Make the cookie butter a little thinner than you’d like it because it thickens as it cools. Serve and enjoy!

Notes

Recipe copyright The Foreign Fork. For educational and personal use only.
  • Biscoff Cookies: You can use Biscoff cookies, Speculoos or any other crispy gingersnap cookies. I have tried this with freshly baked or stale homemade cookies, but the texture is more mushy than I prefer.
  • The cookie butter will thicken as it cools, so it’s a good idea to add 1 or 2 tablespoons more water than you think you need.
  • I tried this recipe with some heavy cream but found it didn’t break the cookies down as well as the water did. It also had a more mild cinnamon flavor, as the cream distracted from the taste.
