Why You’ll Love This Recipe
These cookie butter cookies recipe starts out with a copycat recipe for Levain Chocolate Chip Cookies, the ones made in the famous New York Bakery. Then I added lots of cookie butter and Biscoff cookie goodness to make them even better.
Cookie butter, also known as Speculoos Cream, is a spread made from ground up cookies. It is named after the spiced shortcrust biscuit from Belgium which gives it the gingerbread flavor with a caramel accent.

It’s been around 4 years since I found this wonderful recipe and it is still a family favorite! I swap out the white chocolate for dark chocolate.

I am making the cookie butter cc cookies. Did you add any cookie butter into the dough? the recipe says 1 cup cookie butter divided? Does that just mean you divided the cookie butter 2 t in the middle of each cookie and not in the dough at all?
Thanks

Tonya, These cookies are so good!! I am so glad you are making them. I did not add cookie butter into the batter since there are broken up cookies in there. The cookie butter is only divided among the cookies. Good question!!
