Cookie butter

Cookie butter is a popular spread made from biscuit or cookie crumbs. It originated in Belgium and the Netherlands, where it is known as speculoospasta. The spread has a unique, slightly spiced flavor that is reminiscent of gingerbread and caramel.

History

The creation of cookie butter can be traced back to the early 2000s in Belgium. The idea was born out of a television contest, where the goal was to create a new, innovative product using speculoos cookies. The winning product was a spreadable version of the cookies, which quickly gained popularity in Belgium and the Netherlands.

Production

Cookie butter is made by grinding speculoos cookies into a fine powder. The cookie crumbs are then mixed with vegetable oils, sugar, and sometimes milk to create a smooth, spreadable paste. Some versions of cookie butter also include additional flavorings, such as cinnamon or nutmeg.

Usage

Cookie butter can be used in a variety of ways. It is often spread on bread or toast, similar to peanut butter or Nutella. It can also be used as a filling for sandwiches or pastries, or as a topping for pancakes or waffles. In addition, cookie butter can be used as an ingredient in baking, adding a unique flavor to cookies, cakes, and other desserts.

Varieties

There are several different varieties of cookie butter available. The most common is the original speculoos flavor, but there are also versions made with other types of cookies, such as Oreo or Biscoff. Some brands also offer crunchy versions of cookie butter, which include larger pieces of cookie crumbs for added texture.
