Cookie Butter Bars

posted by Marion@Life Tastes Good on 2013-07-21

 Move over peanut butter! I've found cookie butter (aka Biscoff Spread) and I'm SOLD!! Whoever thought to crush up cookies and make a spread is a GENIUS! The sweet taste with a subtle caramel flavor has won me over! I love it and I'm not ashamed of that! Don likes it too, but I told him I am NOT buying it again. I could eat that stuff right out of the jar! I DID eat that stuff right out of the jar - oh my gosh! it is so addicting!! In an attempt to get it out of the house, I decided to make something with it. I used it all up and now it's gone!
I miss my cookie butter :(


The crust is made of graham crackers, butter, and Biscoff Spread. This combo comes together nicely with the chocolate topping to create a wonderful flavor described best by one of Don's co-workers, 
"...it's like an angel descended from heaven and kissed a Twix bar!"
He nailed it!!



 Ingredients
  • 1 package crushed graham crackers (about 1.5 cups)
  • 1/2 cup butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup Biscoff Spread
  • 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips
  • 2 tablespoons Biscoff Spread

Directions
  1. Mix 1.5 cups crushed graham crackers, 1/2 cup melted butter, and 1/2 cup Biscoff spread and press into the bottom of a square pan (9x9). I recommend lining the pan with parchment paper and allowing the ends to hangover for ease in removing.
  2. Melt 1/2 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips and 2 tablespoons Biscoff spread in a double boiler or the microwave. If microwaving do so slowly and stir every 30 seconds until smooth. Pour over crushed graham cracker mixture and spread evenly.  
  3. Refrigerate several hours. Preferably overnight. Remove parchment from pan and cut into even squares. ENJOY!!

    yes, that spread is incredibly addicting. Trader Joes has their own brand, which is equally delicious. My jars never make it far enough to be put into recipes...lol

      Renee, We don't have Trader Joe's, so I haven't tried that yet. My daughter had it recently and she is hooked! I LOVE it right out of the jar, but I have so many ideas cramming my brain where I want to use it in desserts! So yummy!!
