♪ On the eleventh day of Cookiemas, I made for you to eat:
coffee speculoos, furikake mac nut, 9 vanillekipferl, 8 ate‘s cookies, 7 madeleines, 6 almond cookies,
4 Alfajores, calamansi crinkles, ube coconuts
and a choc chip walnut cookie ♪
Yet another of my infamous cookies from back when I sold them.
This cookie recipe includes the extremely popular speculoos flavors that have become wildly popular in my area of the world.
Usually I would make these in a classic cookie form but this time I decided to make them into bars and add a special topping.
I crushed some speculoos cookies (popular brand would be Biscoff) and mixed it into the speculoos butter to give it a sweet crunch.
Be careful! These cookies are very decadent and pair well with a strong bitter coffee.
