What is chunky cookie butter?
I think it is basically just a peanut butter. I clicked on the Trader Joe’s in italics and that is what it look like to me anyway.
You are pretty close Alice. It’s BETTER than peanut butter though! ;)
Could you use chunky peanut butter in place of chunky cookie butter ? Thank You
Hi Ann, yes you sure can. Enjoy! ?
