Last week I was over at Mom Endeavors sharing this recipe!! So if you missed it over there you can take a peek at the recipe here!!! This is a super easy treat to make and give as a tasty Hostess gift!! With the Holidays and Parties approaching you can whip up a batch of this and keep them in your fridge to hand out at a moments notice!!!
Today I am going to share a recipe/gift idea!! So there has been a lot of buzz lately about Biscoff Butter and Speculoos Butter, Mr. Pinkcakeplate is crazy for Trader Joe’s Speculoos Butter!! Now when I first heard about these “butters” I had no idea what they were made of so I turned to “Google” to find out what they are!! Ok are you ready for this?? It is a Peanut Butter like treat made out of cookies!!! Step aside Nutella!! When perusing the web I came across a recipe for homemade cookie butter!!! I made a few revisions and created a “Pink Cake Plate Cookie Butter” and it is to die for!! I don’t like a real spicy cookie butter so this one is a bit more on the Vanilla side and less spicy!!
Here are a few of the ingredients. They are all pretty simple and most you have in your pantry already!! I found the Windmill cookies at the $$$ Store so this recipe is pretty inexpensive to make!!
Place the cookies in you food processor and pulse until they are a fine crumb.
Then add your cinnamon, salt and brown sugar pulse again. I then added the butter, vanilla and molasses and turned on the processor and slowly poured the water in until it was the consistency I wanted.
That is it easy peasy!!
Aren’t these adorable?? All dressed up ready for giving!!
Here is a printable recipe!! Enjoy!!
Pink Cake Plate Cookie Butter
Ingredients
- 2 packages Windmill cookies found at the $$$ Store
- 2 tablespoons packed light brown sugar
- 3 teaspoons ground cinnamon
- 2 teaspoons vanilla or 1 teaspoon Vanilla Butter Bakery Emulsion
- 1 tablespoon molasses
- 2 tablespoons melted butter
- 1/2 t salt
- 1/4 to 1/2 cup water
Instructions
- In large food processor, process cookies into fine crumbs. Turn off processor. Add brown sugar, cinnamon, and vanilla; process until blended. Continue to process while adding molasses and butter through spout.
- With processor running, add just enough water so mixture becomes a creamy consistency (you might not use all the water). Add more water as needed until you reach desired texture (it should be about the same as peanut butter).
- Pour cookie butter into airtight container. Store in refrigerator.
- This makes about 1 1/4 Cups of yummy cookie butter!!!
