For those of you who have not yet experienced Biscoff Spread or Speculoos Cookie Butter from Trader Joe’s, my heart aches for you. That stuff is seriously AH-mazing. Capital AH.
Now if you have tried the stuff before, you know what I’m talking about. It’s just plain good. I have attempted to make my very own recreation of cookie butter. It’s definitely not the exact same taste, and not exactly the same texture but it’s the same concept!
I love this stuff. This is MY cookie butter. My very own version that suits my very own needs. But I thought I’d be nice and share. 
So here you go. This concoction is awesome with anything and everything. Even healthy things *gasp*, like apples! Go off and make your own cookie butter!!
Homemade Cookie Butter
(makes about 1 cup)
2 packages (18 total sheets of crackers) Graham Crackers
1 Tablespoon plus 2 teaspoons cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon nutmeg
1 Tablespoon brown sugar
1 Tablespoon molasses
2 Tablespoons coconut oil (any other type of oil will work as well)
3/4 cup-1 cup water
- Place graham crackers in food processor and process until they become very fine crumbs.
- Keep processor running and add in cinnamon, nutmeg, and brown sugar through top spout. Add in molasses and coconut oil through top spout.
- Gradually add in water until cookie butter has achieved desired creaminess. It is best to add in about 1/2 cup, lift the lid and then see where you are at and how much more water you want to add in from there. This is also a good time to taste test and see if you want to add in more spices. I store my cookie butter in an air tight container in the fridge. It should be fine in the pantry, but I have not tried it.

Since I live in the middle of nowhere so I have yet to try the stuff! It has been KILLING ME!!! At least I can give yours a try now!
This is too random! Jake and I just bought our first jar of cookie butter from Trader Joes this weekend and haven’t been able to put it down. Thanks for sharing this recipe! When our jar from TJ’s is gone, I am going to make this!
This is a cool idea, Casey! Must be delicious.
Sadly there’s no TJ where I live so this is the first I’m hearing of this. And I just bought a pack of graham crackers today – a totally random purchase for me. I believe they’re destined to become THIS! Looks great!
This looks great! Yet another recipe for me to try……I read too many food blogs that I can’t keep up with all the delicious things I want to find the time to make.
I just recently discovered Biscoff spread and fell in love with it. So then I was scanning some comments over at Cookies & Cups and the words cookie butter jumped out at me. Then I read your comment and well I think I love you. I thought you should know.
LOL I loved reading this comment. you, my friend, are awesome
