Notes:

  1. Biscoff is a popular spice cookie brand.
  2. Good news! This technique works with many different cookies, such as vanilla wafers, sandwich cookies, or any crisp cookie you like.
  3. If you'd like a shelf-stable version of this spread that needs no refrigeration, use organic coconut oil instead of butter.
