Cookie Butter Brownies | What is Cookie Butter Anyways?

These Cookie Butter Brownies a combination of my homemade brownie recipe with cookie butter frosting. That’s right. You heard me. COOKIE. BUTTER. FROSTING.

What is Cookie Butter you ask? Imagine peanut butter but instead of the taste of nuts, you have the flavor of Biscoff cookies! So good!

Chewy, soft, thick, chocolaty brownies topped with creamy, heavenly goodness. And, they take no time at all to make! Perfect treats for a party or this weekend.

Main Ingredients Needed

You don’t need much to make these Cookie Butter Brownies. But what you do need is of course, cookie butter! If you can’t find any feel free to sub out with peanut butter, Nutella or another alternative. Here’s what else you need:

For the Brownies

• Butter + Chocolate – these are used for our fudgy base!
• Cocoa Powder + Vanilla – both are used for flavor.
• Sugar – to sweeten.
• Eggs – for structure and texture.
• Flour – this fills out the rest of the brownies.
• Baking Powder + Salt – for rise and to balance out the sweet.

For the Cookie Butter Frosting

• Butter + Cookie Butter – these two create a super smooth texture as well as flavor. You can find cookie butter at Trader Joe’s or online.
• Powdered Sugar – to sweeten and thicken the frosting.
• Vanilla – to flavor.
• Milk – this thins out the frosting so it’s spreadable.
