Ingredients Equipment Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 30 pieces gingersnap cookies (or 2 cups crushed)
  • 1/4 cup milk or heavy cream
  • 2 tablespoons coconut oil or butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon cinnamon (optional)
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar or granulated sugar (optional)
  • a pinch salt

Equipment

  • Food processor or blender
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Spatula
  • Storage Jar

Method
 

  1. Gather all your ingredients. Make sure your gingersnap cookies are crushed if you’re not using whole cookies.
  2. In a food processor, add the gingersnap cookies. Pulse them until they become fine crumbs.
  3. With the food processor running, slowly add the milk or heavy cream, coconut oil or butter, vanilla extract, and a pinch of salt. Blend until smooth and creamy.
  4. If you’re opting for cinnamon and sugar, add them now. Blend again until everything is well combined. Taste and adjust the sweetness or spice according to your preference.
  5. Transfer your Easy 5 Minute Cookie Butter into a storage jar. It can be enjoyed right away or refrigerated for later use.

Notes

  • For an extra layer of flavor, try adding a tablespoon of nut butter to the mix.
  • Store the cookie butter in an airtight container to maintain its freshness.
  • If the mixture is too thick, add a splash more of milk to achieve your desired consistency.
