Cookie Butter Cookies

As I would scroll through my Instagram feed, I would constantly see recipes using cookie butter. Now, cookie butter must be an American thing because only recently have I been able to find it here in Canada- and it’s not the same. Lucky for me, I was in Florida over the holidays so I grabbed myself 2 jars of this so called ‘cookie butter’.

I found a super easy recipe by @smashedpeasandcarrots but, of course I had to add my own twist. I lessened the amount of oats and added in some rice crispies and chocolate- I don’t think anyone will complain.

If you can find yourself some cookie butter, give this 5 ingredient, fool proof recipe a try, it’s worth gossiping about!
