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.
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! 😉

The cookie butter cheesecake looks really tasty. The spaculous cookie butter would be a perfect addition here.
Oh yum this sounds absolutely delicious – what a treat this would be, I think I will have to make myself some. x
There are just so many delicious recipes out this season it’s hard to chose. I am planning on making eggnog french toast casserole for breakfast (never tried!) and I would love to see if I could bake a cherry cheesecake. I always buy and never try! LOL!
Cookie butter is my downfall! If I have a jar in the pantry, it never makes it further than my spoon…every single time I walk past it. So yeah, this basically looks like the best cheesecake in the history of ever.
That sounds like a delicious recipe!! I love cheesecake and can’t wait to try it!
Now this sounds great. I would love to make a cheesecake like this for an upcoming birthday.
Wow, that looks REALLY tasty! I’ve never tried to make cheesecake before but this is too yummy looking to pass up!
I have never heard of Cookie Butter but this looks delicious. My husband is a huge fan of cheesecake and he loves hazelnut spread … sounds like a win-win to me. Definitely putting this on our MUST TRY list. Thank you so much for sharing!
I would love to try this cheesecake! I used to make cheesecake all the time (a little too often, lol!) and I bet my kids would love this variation. None of us has tried cookie butter yet – it would be a first!
