🔪 INSTRUCTIONS
Follow these simple steps for this easy cookie butters recipe.
- Take a handful of cookies (your choice of flavor! We like chocolate chip, Nutter Butters, Ginger Snap and Oreos!) and add to a food processor. Blend until it forms a very fine powder.
- You’ll need 2 cups of cookie crumbs, so just keep blending cookies until you get there. (All cookies are different, so we can't give you an exact number of cookies to get to two cups.)
- Melt your CannaButter in the microwave or on the stove and stir into your cookie crumbs. Mix well.
- In a small saucepan, combine the condensed milk and evaporated milk and heat lightly. Slowly add to your cookie mixture. You most likely will not need all of it. Keep adding small amounts of the liquid (one tablespoon at a time) until the cookie butter is just wet enough to stay together. The amount you need is based on the type of cookie you choose and your desired creaminess.
- Transfer your cookie butter into a jamjar and screw on the lid.
- Store in fridge for up to two weeks. If needed, you can heat slightly before spreading/dipping.
If you're new to the world of cookie butter, be prepared to have your mind blown.

That would be a solid no, but why do we care? If you're making cannabis cookie butter, then I think we can all agree to ignore the calories for a little bit, right?
Did Trader Joe's invent cookie butter?
Actually, no, if you can believe that! Cookie butter is said to have originated in Europe (apparently both the Netherlands and Germany claim to be the original inventors.)That said, I think most of us can agree that Trader Joe's Spectacular Speculoos Cookie Butter is about as good as it gets (unless you're making CANNABIS cookie butter at home from scratch.)
Is Biscoff Spread the same as Cookie Butter?
Nope - they're a little different. Biscoff Spread is a little more smooth and cookie butter is sweeter.
