Developing these Biscoff® Cookie Butter Cookies (Two Ways) has been on my mind for the last several months. Finally, I put together the ingredients I wanted and created my best version of them.
I love, love, LOVE Biscoff® flavored anything and decided it was time for a same-named cookie. The perk with these cookies is that you get to eat a spoonful of that awesome, creamy spread as many times as you want while you're making them.
These are simple cookies - easy to make and extra-easy to eat. They're crunchy and incredibly tasty. Because of the Biscoff® cookie butter, they ever so lightly have a whisper of snickerdoodle spice flavor in them.
I've created two different versions. One is simply rolled in decorator sugar (or granulated if you'd rather) and the other has rough-chopped chocolate chips throughout them.
Both versions are delicious, but I lean a little more toward the crunchy, sugar rolled cookie. I usually prefer softer cookies, but I'll make an exception for these. The ones with chocolate chips taste kind of like a great Chips Ahoy in a way.
There aren't any extra notes for making these because they're very simple to make. They do spread quite a bit, though, so if you want perfectly round cookies, place the 1-inch balls a little further apart on the cookie sheet than you're used to.
Biscoff® Cookie Butter Cookies are terrific with hot tea or your favorite coffee. I'm warning you, though. These cookies are addictive and it's very easy to eat a bunch before you know it.
By the way, you'll find the Biscoff® Creamy Cookie Butter Spread over by the peanut butter in your grocery store. It's pretty common now since people have found out that it's eye-rolling delicious.
