Homemade Cookie Butter Cookies
These amazing homemade Biscoff Cookies are a lot like this Peanut Butter Cookie recipe. With an entire cup of Biscoff cookie butter inside the dough they are undeniably good but we don’t stop there!
Crushed Biscoff cookies are stirred into the cookie dough along with white chocolate chips for an extra special touch.
What is Cookie Butter?
Cookie butter is the texture of peanut butter texture but is made by grinding up Biscoff cookies {sometimes called Speculoos} with a bit of fat and sometimes additional sugar.
The flavor of Biscoff cookies is like a spiced cookie with the texture of shortbread. Similar to a gingerbread flavor.
The best part about cookie butter is that it can be spread on things, used to bake or even eaten by the spoonful {my personal preference}.
The Ingredients:
- Yellow Cake Mix-this is the base of the cookie.
- Biscoff Cookie Butter-smooth and creamy, it will add great flavor.
- Butter-be sure it is melted before adding it to the other ingredients.
- Eggs-2 eggs will keep all of the ingredients together wonderfully.
- Biscoff Cookies-adding additional cookies in the form of crumbs creates a great texture.
- White Chocolate Chips-everything’s better with a little chocolate.
How do you make Homemade Biscoff Cookies?
The very best part about these Cookie Butter Cookies is that they start with a cake mix. That means they are super easy!
- Crush the Biscoff Cookies into bite sized pieces. I like to use a zipper bag and my hands.
- For the cookie dough, combine the cake mix with the cookie butter, melted butter and eggs. Mix the ingredients together using a hand held mixer until you have a thick dough. Next, add the crushed cookies and stir them into the dough by hand.
- Add the white chocolate chips to the cookie dough by hand. This will keep the chips from breaking up.
- Use a medium cookie scoop and scoop the mounds of dough onto a silicone mat {or parchment} lined baking sheet. Roll the mounds in your hands to create a smooth and round ball of cookie dough.
Finally, bake the cookies in a 350 degree oven for 9-11 minutes or until the cookies are set nicely. Remove them from the oven and allow the cookies to cool completely on the baking sheet.
It is so important to not over bake cookies! The difference between a perfectly baked cookie and a hockey puck is only a minute or two. In fact, you can see all of my other cake mix cookie baking tips here.
Tips to Bake the BEST Homemade Biscoff Cookie Butter Cookies
- Use a hand held mixer to combine the first 4 ingredients in the cookies. This will help to get you a really great cookie dough that is thick and nicely mixed.
- Add the crushed cookies and white chocolate chips and stir them in by hand. This will give you great chunks of cookie {without them getting crushed} and keep the white chocolate chips from breaking up.
- Use a cookie scoop to make sure that all of the cookies are the same size when baking. This will ensure even baking.
- Roll the cookie dough mounds in your hands to create a smooth ball of Biscoff Cookie dough.
- Don’t over bake the cookies! Remove from the oven and then allow them to cool completely on the baking sheet. The heat from the baking sheet will continue to bake them slightly and allow them to set up perfectly.
Storing and Freezing your Homemade Cookie Butter Cookies
Once they are all baked it is time to eat up but if you have any leftovers store the Biscoff Cookies with a cake mix in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 4 days.
You can even make them ahead of time and freeze them for up to 3 months.
