Why I love these cookie butter treats
I have never made rice crispy treats before. Ever. In fact, I don’t even really like them that much. At least not the packaged kind (ick). But when I saw Rice Krispies cereal in a French grocery store, I immediately hoarded a box into our shopping cart. Like if I didn’t buy them right then and there, they might never return. You see, there aren’t very many cereal choices for me here in France. I am definitely not a fan of the sweet, sugary cereals, and that seems to be all you can get here. I would choose Crispix or granola over Cocoa Puffs any day. Of course, I’ve been to the store several times since I purchased that box of Rice Krispies, and they are still always there, but I’m still glad I impulsively picked one up because it inspired me to make a delicious and super easy treat. I combined one of my favorite French (okay, maybe it’s really just European) flavors with a classic American recipe. Speculoos + Rice Krispies = wonderful.
Here’s what you’ll need to make these cookie butter treats

I haven’t been able to try actual Biscoff spread (doesn’t seem to be available in the Canadian grocery stores I frequent) but there are other cookie butters and I LOVE them. It’s dangerous stuff. I loved it in popsicles I made over the summer and I bet I would love these treats too!
You can’t get Biscoff? That’s terrible! What about Amazon? At least you have some kind of cookie butter though. Do you have the recipe for those popsicles on your blog? I need to see it!
Please move next door and make these for me all the time. That is all. K THANKS!!!
Oh my gosh – can you believe I’ve never had cookie butter? But it sounds delicious, so it’s something I’ve got to try. And, I’m with you – I’m not big on sugary cereals – but I’m really glad you made these treats, because they look amazing!
You haven’t had cookie butter yet? You need to stop what you’re doing right now and go buy some! It’s a life changer 🙂
We made some crispy treats-way-but-when- Yes when the children went to
school they liked it !***
Never made rice crispy treats?! I’m so glad you remedied that situation because these look addicting (and I’m a rice crispy treats fiend!). This is just the second time I’ve heard of cookie butter, but I’m so intrigued! Pinned!
I was 60 years old before I discovered Cookie Butter! I felt so cheated out of all the years I could have been using/eating it. Since then I have been on a mission to introduce this magical ingredient to anyone who’s never tried it. I can’t wait till somebody comes out with cookie butter morsels!
