What it is

How it differs from similar foods
Unlike peanut butter, which has a nutty flavor and a slightly grainy texture, cookie butter offers a sweet, baked-good profile. Its smoothness is comparable to some nut butters, but the flavor is distinctly that of a cookie, often with hints of spice or vanilla, making it a unique confectionary spread.
Who it is for
Home bakers and dessert enthusiasts will appreciate this unique spread for its flavor and versatility.
How to keep the rest
After opening, store the cookie butter in a cool, dry place. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to maintain its freshness and prevent it from drying out. Refrigeration is not typically required, but if you prefer a firmer consistency, you can chill it. Always use clean utensils when scooping to avoid contamination.
