Cookie butter has been a weakness for many people, especially my daughter Nikki. Obsessed with this stuff, Nikki would buy anything and everything using cookie butter and just bought the new cookie butter Oreos®. These cookie butter rice crispy bites are definitely tasty and will satisfy your cookie butter craving one bite at a time.
Cookie Butter Desserts
A cookie butter dessert that is super easy to make, and the best thing is, these cookie butter rice crispy bites are no bake and can be whipped up in a matter of minutes.
Definitely sweet but oh, so good! If you love cookie butter, you are certainly going to love these little gems. And if you want to know what cookie butter is, here’s a definition, “Cookie butter (Danish: Trøffel-masse) is a food paste made primarily from speculoos cookies crumbs, fat (such as vegetable oil, condensed milk or butter), flour and sugar. The ingredients are mixed until it becomes spreadable like nutbutter” from Wikipedia.
When you add the rice krispie cereal to the large baggie, make sure to crush the cereal so that there is still a little crunch to them. I’ve made these before using peanut butter and I left the cereal a little bit larger but it’s all the same, crushed krispies and cookie butter equal deliciousness.
Recipes Using Cookie Butter
Basically, like I mentioned above, add the rice krispies to a large baggie. Using a rolling pin, crush a bit. Then grab a medium mixing bowl, add cookie butter, powdered sugar and melted butter, then mix until combined. Next, add the rice krispie cereal and mix well. With a 1″ cookie baller, make 16 small crispy bites and set each one on wax paper. Melt the white chocolate wafers in a microwave safe bowl according to package directions. Once melted, add a few pieces at a time and make sure to cover with the chocolate well. Remove and set on a cooling rack with a baking sheet underneath to catch the dripping chocolate or place on cookie sheet lined with parchment paper. Decorate with mini chocolate pieces or sprinkles. Chill and then enjoy!
