Ingredients
Cookie Dough Ingredients
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter (room temperature)
- 1/2 cup Speculoos or Biscoff cookie butter
- 2/3 cup light brown sugar (packed)
- 1 large egg (room temperature)
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 1/2 cups + 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
For Topping
- Extra cookie butter for the tops (about 1 teaspoon per cookie)
Instructions
- Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (180°C) to prepare for baking the cookies.
- Cream Butter and Sugars: In a mixing bowl, use a paddle attachment on low speed to cream together the unsalted butter, Speculoos or Biscoff cookie butter, and light brown sugar until the mixture is light and fluffy.
- Add Egg and Vanilla: Mix in the large egg and vanilla extract thoroughly until combined and smooth.
- Combine Dry Ingredients: Gently incorporate the all-purpose flour, baking soda, and salt into the wet ingredients, mixing until just combined to form the dough.
- Scoop the Dough: Using a large cookie scoop (about 3 tablespoons), drop dough balls onto a parchment-lined baking tray, spacing them approximately 3 inches apart to allow room for spreading.
- Add Cookie Butter Topping: Place about 1 teaspoon of extra cookie butter on top of each dough ball, slightly flattening it.
- Bake the Cookies: Bake in the preheated oven for 10-12 minutes, or until the cookie edges are golden brown and the cookie butter topping has melted and formed a crackled finish.
- Cool and Serve: Remove the cookies from the oven and let them cool completely on a wire rack before enjoying.
Notes
- To measure flour accurately, spoon it into your measuring cup and level it off with a knife rather than scooping directly from the bag.
- Room temperature ingredients help blend the dough evenly for the best texture.
- Space cookies well apart on the baking sheet to prevent sticking or merging during baking.
- These cookies can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days.
