This stuff can be found at your local Trader Joe's and it's absolutely delicious. It is essentially Speculoos cookies, a Belgian cookie, almost like a gingersnap but not quite, crushed up into a peanut butter consistency. I had this for the first time last year and crave it frequently now. I wanted to make a yummy treat out of this stuff but it was a long process to think of something good. Should I make some sort of frosting? Cookies? Then I thought of it. Fudge.
I LOVE to make fudge. It's so simple and always so good. It's so easy to transport and share with others as well which is something I love to do with my baked goods and confections. Not only did I use Cookie Butter for the fudge, but I gave it a nice crumbly topping made of Trader Joe's Speculoos Cookies, which are also delicious.
This fudge was incredible. And it is so easy to make. Only a few everyday ingredients and a stop at Trader Joe's and you are set. I highly recommend trying this out, and if you are not a fan of cookie butter (you must be insane), you can always replace it with peanut butter instead.
