SPECULOOS CUPS



Speculoos Cups image

This recipe was created when my four-year-old daughter asked to make peanut butter cups and I had to tell her we were out of peanut butter. She said, That's ok, let's just use speculoos spread! Brilliant. Speculoos cookies are a traditional cookie common here in Belgium, as well as Holland and Germany. You can find them in America with a bit of searching. Trader Joe's® and Amazon sell both speculoos cookies and spread (which they call cookie butter).

SPECULOOS (A FLEMISH SPICE COOKIE)



Speculoos (A Flemish Spice Cookie) image

I could not believe that there wasn't a recipe for Speculoos on the Zaar. Did a search while I was crunching down on a couple of them - the others I saved to dunk into my coffee. To my mind, there is no better cookie to enjoy with a cup of (very good) coffee. Thin, crunchy, spicy. They are perfection. Be sure to roll the dough out very thin (I'd say about 1/8th of an inch. Adapted from a recipe found on epicurious (I like my speculoos spicier).

Tips:

  • Use high-quality ingredients. This will make a big difference in the flavor of your speculoos cups. Look for good-quality butter, sugar, flour, and spices.
  • Don't overmix the dough. Overmixing will make the dough tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Chill the dough before baking. This will help the dough to hold its shape and prevent it from spreading too much in the oven.
  • Bake the cups until they are golden brown. This will ensure that they are cooked through.
  • Let the cups cool completely before filling them. This will help to prevent the filling from melting.
  • Be creative with your fillings. You can use anything from chocolate ganache to whipped cream to ice cream.

Conclusion:

Speculoos cups are a delicious and festive treat that are perfect for any occasion. They are easy to make and can be customized to your liking. With a little creativity, you can create speculoos cups that are sure to impress your friends and family.
