Unlike traditional peanut butter, this spread is made from cookies and oil, resulting in a sweeter, less nutty flavor profile. Its texture is typically smoother and more uniform than some nut butters, and it lacks the natural oils that can separate in some varieties.

How to keep the rest
After opening, store the cookie butter in a cool, dry place. Ensure the lid is tightly sealed to maintain freshness and prevent it from drying out. It does not typically require refrigeration, but check the packaging for specific recommendations. Proper storage will help preserve its smooth texture and sweet flavor.
