Ingredients:
- 100g unsalted butter (7 tbsp)
- 60g cookie butter (¼ cup)
- 100g light brown sugar (½ cup)
- 50g granulated sugar (¼ cup)
- 1 egg (room temperature)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract
- 150g all-purpose flour (1¼ cup)
- ½ tsp baking soda
- ½ tsp baking powder
- ½ tsp salt
- 120g semi-sweet chocolate, chopped (⅔ cup)
- 45g Biscoff cookies, crushed (approx. 6 cookies)
Instructions:
- Brown the butter: In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter, stirring occasionally. Continue cooking until the butter turns amber in color and you see little brown specks (about 5-7 minutes). This is browned butter and adds a nutty flavor to the cookies.
- Mix the cookie butter: Pour the browned butter into a medium mixing bowl (you should have about 80-85g of browned butter). Immediately mix in the cookie butter while the browned butter is still hot, stirring until smooth. Place the mixture in the freezer for about 5 minutes to cool slightly.
- Prepare the chocolate: While the butter is cooling, chop the chocolate or break chocolate feves into smaller pieces. Set aside.
- Combine the sugars: Remove the cooled butter mixture from the freezer. Whisk in the granulated sugar and light brown sugar until smooth.
- Add wet ingredients: Whisk in the egg and vanilla extract until fully combined.
- Mix the dry ingredients: In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, baking soda, baking powder, and salt. Add this dry mixture to the wet ingredients, and fold together with a rubber spatula until just a few streaks of flour remain.
- Add the chocolate and Biscoff crumbs: Gently fold in the chopped chocolate and crushed Biscoff cookies until no flour streaks remain.
- Chill the dough: Cover the dough tightly with plastic wrap or a lid and chill in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 days).
- Preheat the oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.
- Shape the cookies: Scoop out heaping 3-tablespoon portions of dough and place them on the baking sheet, leaving enough space for spreading.
- Optional topping: Melt 2 tablespoons of cookie butter and spread a little on top of each cookie dough ball. Sprinkle additional chocolate pieces and crushed Biscoff cookies on top.
- Bake: Bake the cookies for 12-14 minutes, or until the edges are golden brown but the centers are still soft. Remove from the oven and let them cool on the baking sheet for a few minutes before transferring them to a cooling rack.
