I just love baking during the holidays.  A few days ago, I was looking for a dessert to make during the holidays — something with a little spice that would just be out of this world amazing. I’ve got three words for you. Cookie. Butter. Cheesecake. Oh my gosh is this stuff amazing!

If you don’t know what cookie butter is, it is a spread a bit like peanut butter but it’s made with European speculoos cookies.

We love cookie butter. I think it’s even better than chocolate hazelnut spread. My teenager and I enjoy it as a late night snack, just the two of us. When I saw the Kraft recipe for Cookie Butter Cheesecake, I knew we had a winner before I even tasted it.

I’ve made cheesecake bars and squares before, but never an entire cheesecake. So, I was a little scared, but it was surprisingly easy. This cheesecake is full of creamy delicious Kraft Philadelphia Cream Cheese. The hard part was waiting for it to chill in the fridge for a few hours before I could taste it! 😉
