Speculoos Cookies

Hi guys!

I’ve had one of those baking cravings 🙂 You know, those moments when you just HAVE to bake something!

It was Sunday, I had just cleaned the whole house (yes, including the kitchen, which wasn’t that smart I suppose) and the Boyfriend turned on the television for some football. I didn’t know what to do! :O
I still have lots of great books I could read. I’m reading the third book from the Game of Thrones series at the moment (meaning: sometimes before I go to bed). But I didn’t want to read. I wanted to bake! But what?

That’s always the tricky part. I now I want to bake, I HAVE to, but I never know what recipe to make… And I know, those 34 cook books in the closet should make things easy for me but no, they don’t. I never know what recipe to make. Oh god, why does it have to be so complicated!

After standing in front of my cookbooks, staring at them and just doing absolutely nothing, I decided to make something that wasn’t in any of my cookbooks: Speculoos Cookies!

So so easy and very yummy. Perfect 🙂 It’s actually a modified version of my Nerdy Nummies Chocolate Chip Smart Cookies.

What do we need:

• 260 g flour
• 150 g white sugar
• 150 g brown sugar
• 1 tsp salt
• 2 eggs
• Speculoos crumbs (I’ve used 2 hands of speculoos crumbs)
• 250 g butter
• 1 tsp vanilla extract
• Baking plate
• Baking paper

How to:

1. Combine flour and salt in a separate bowl
2. Combine butter, both sugars and vanilla extract in your mixer
3. Add the eggs
4. Slowly add the flour once the eggs are completely combined
5. Add the speculoos crumbs and mix them through the dough
6. Bake our cookies for about 15 minutes at 190 degrees centigrade

These Speculoos Cookies are crispy at the sides and chewy in the middle 🙂 I guess that’s a feature of speculoos because Speculoos Blondies are chewy as well!

So let’s get chewing on those cookies and love those baking craving moments because they always end well 😉

Have a delicious day ❤
