Close up of cookie butter cookies

Crumbl cookie butter ice cream cookies are a little bit of an overreach because there is no ice cream in these. But maybe they’re named that because 1, they’re chilled, and 2, they might be inspired by the Trader Joe’s cookie butter ice cream?

All in all, I’m not saying they aren’t good because they are! If you ask me anything cookie butter is a gem. The perfect marriage of spices, caramelized hints, and gingerbread!

This is the best cookie butter ice cream cookies

This cookie takes that and runs with it, it is made out of a base of brown sugar cookie. I added a tap bit of cinnamon to really allow the cookie butter buttercream to shine.

Then topped each one with a homemade cookie butter buttercream! I think you’ll love it!

Frequently asked questions – FAQ

Is cookie butter, speculoos, and Biscoff all the same?

So technically Biscoff is the brand, speculoos (Speculaas) is a type of shortcrust biscuit with the spices you taste in cookie butter. So technically they are all something different but within the same category.

  • Biscoff- The brand
  • Speculoos (Speculaas)- The actual biscuit.
  • Cookie butter– The butter of the biscuit.

How to store these cookies?

You can store these cookies in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.

I would chill these on a flat layer and then transfer them to an air-tight container where you can stack them. Make sure to separate each cookie with wax paper or parchment paper.

You can enjoy these out of the fridge since they are supposed to be served chilled.

Can I freeze these cookie butter ice cream cookies?

Absolutely, These cookies freeze so well.

Flash freeze them on a baking sheet first until they are solid then transfer to an air-tight container and stack them making sure that you separate each cookie with parchment paper or wax paper.

When you’re ready to serve, place them on a flat surface (ex: baking sheet, or plate) and thaw in the fridge overnight or on the counter for a few hours.

How to make smaller Crumbl cookie butter cookies?

Instead of making 7 cookies, it will make 14 smaller-sized cookies (so double the number of cookies for the same batch size.)

Meaning scoop out 7 equally sized cookie dough balls with a large cookie scooped and then split those in half, roll, and then bake for 8 minutes.

    These were AMAZING! Have made them so many times- everyone LOVES them because the icing isn’t too sweet. I do add additional cookie butter for a more intense flavor.

    Great recipe, not for me.

    These cookies were gooey and soft, pretty good chilled if you ask me. The frosting was barely cookie butter flavored (I would have liked it stronger), but very nice when freshly whipped! It was good on a graham cracker or fruit, but not on a cookie. I think I may make the frosting again for other purposes.

    Too sweet for my tastes, but give it a go if you’re into that. Don’t really know what I was expecting considering this is a crumbl cookie 🤷‍♀️

    Again….amazing. Such great flavor. That cookie butter frosting?! Yes please! Mine were definitely not dark like yours, maybe I should have used dark brown sugar? Either way – the taste was great!

      The color of the sugar you use will contribute to how dark the cookies so you can so that.
