Biscoff cookie butter cookies are a chewy biscoff cookie filled with a gooey cookie butter center and a sprinkle of salt. They're soft, chewy and have the best surprise when you take a bite!
These biscoff cookie butter cookies are meant for all you biscoff lovers. They are loaded with so much flavor from the cookie butter in the dough, and the melty cookie butter filling.
And if you're a true cookie butter fanatic like I am then you must try my chewy biscoff blondies, my no bake biscoff cheesecake bars or my biscoff brownies.

Why You Will Love These Cookies
- Cookie Butter Filling: The melty cookie butter in the center is the best surprise to bite into.
- Chewy: These are a chewy cookie with the perfect crisp edge.
- Sweet and Salty: We all know I love salt on my cookies, but I swear it's the extra perfect balance on these cookies.
Ingredient Notes
Full ingredient measurements and instructions can be found in the recipe card below.
- Cookie Butter: I have used Biscoff cookie butter and trader joes speculoos butter and they both work great.
- Butter: I always love using salted butter, but feel free to use unsalted if you prefer.
- Sugars: You will use a mix of both granulated and brown sugar to help get the perfect texture.
- Salt: The flaked salt really helps balance the sweetness in these cookies.
Step by Step Instructions
- Step 1: Scoop 13 one teaspoon size balls of biscoff cookie butter onto a piece of parchment or wax paper and place into the freezer to freeze.
- Step 2: Place butter and ½ cup of biscoff cookie butter in a medium bowl and mix together until smooth. Add both sugars and mix again until light and fluffy. Add egg and vanilla and mix in.
- Step 3: Add salt, baking soda and flour to the bowl and mix on low, being careful not to over mix. I usually like to stop mixing when I still have flour remnants around the bowl.
- Step 4: Scoop the dough into large balls, I like to use a 3 tablespoon cookie scoop. Take the frozen cookie butter balls out of the freezer. Push cookie butter balls into the cookie dough, making sure to completely cover with cookie dough.
- Step 5: Roll the dough into balls. Place 6-7 cookies on a baking sheet.
- Step 6: Bake the cookies for 11-13 minutes, or until golden brown along the edge. Melt 2 tablespoons of cookie butter in the microwave for 15-20 seconds. Drizzle on baked cookies and sprinkle with some flaked salt. Allow to cool/set.
Expert Baking Tips
- These are also great without the cookie butter center if you just want a simple biscoff flavored cookie.
- If your cookies don't come out in a perfect circle I like to run a spoon or spatula around the rim right out of the oven to help shape them.
- I have given both cups and grams as measurements. Grams will be more precise, especially when measuring flour. If you don’t have a kitchen scale, no problem! Just lightly spoon flour into your measuring cup to insure its not packed in there. Light and fluffy is the key.
FAQ
Unfortunately no, biscoff cookie butter is not gluten free.
Freezing helps so the cookie butter isn't too sticky when placing it into the dough.
If your cookies spread too much you probably needed to add 1-2 more tablespoons of flour to your dough.
Storing & Freezing
These biscoff cookie butter cookies will remain fresh for 2-3 days if kept in an airtight container.
You can freeze these cookies in an airtight container as well. I would suggest allowing them to come to room temperature again before enjoying.

Sierra
An excellent recipe! I omitted the drizzle on top and it was still a great cookie!!
Treasure McPherson
These are a fun and easy cookie to make! The added cookie butter in the middle was a nice touch. My cookies ended up flatter than I usually like. I may have to chill them at my elevation. Thanks for another fun cookie!
Julie Henry
SO good! Saw this recipe on Instagram and ran to the store to get cookie butter. Just like every recipe on this website, these are awesome!!!
Ashlee

Danielle Kyle
These are such a nice introduction to fall baking!!! I love the deep and rich flavor of cookie butter and it works amazingly in cookie form! These had the most beautiful soft texture. The only cookie butter recipe that can compete with these cookies is Brooke’s (Salted Sweets) Biscoff Blondies!
Leslie
I’ve make so many cookie recipes but never stuffed one with Biscoff butter and I’ve been missing out! These were easy to make and delicious!! Worth the few extra steps with freezing cookie butter and drizzling at the end.
Patricia Enderby
Definitely a must during this fall season. Entire family devoured them. Amazing flavor and so easy to make. Will be including this cookie recipe into my fall/winter baking rotation. Well done!
Brooke Homec
Thank you so much!! Glad they were enjoyed by everyone!!

Stephanie Wright
AMAZING! These are so good!

If you are a biscoff lover, these are great! The biscoff center makes the cookie, so don’t skip that!
Shauna Phillips
Delicious! Made half with the biscoff in the center and half without. Both were excellent.
Ashley Poynor
So yummy and easy to make!
I love biscoff cookies and was excited to try this recipe.
This was my first time doing a stuffed cookie and they turned out great 🙂
Thanks for another great recipe Brooke!
GIADA
Best treat biscuits ever...I have made these twice and they’re amazing!
Lonna Seger
Fabulous taste and not difficult at all! I think I will add these to my annual goodie basket I make for my neighbors for the holidays!
Katie
Could I make the cookie dough balls and freeze them to be baked later? Or keep the dough in the fridge for a day or two?
Brooke Homec
yes to either!
Katie
So cozy and comforting for fall! The texture was perfect and the sea salt on top balanced the sweetness from the Biscoff in the best way! I did find it helpful to chill the dough for about 30 minutes before adding the frozen Biscoff center as it was really sticky.
Caitlin
Cookies were absolutely amazing. My only suggestion is chilling the dough before putting the frozen cookie butter in them. I scooped the dough into balls, put them on a pan & cooled for an hour. They spread a great amount and were so dang good. Thank you for the recipe!
Camille Knudsen
This cookie is IT! So soft, so chewy, so delicious! I made some with the Biscoff Cookie Butter filling and some without and both were fabulous!
Michelle D. Viray
With cookie butter in the batter, the center and drizzled on top, I thought it might be cookie butter overload, but not at all! These cookies were sooooo good! Can’t wait to make them again!
Jen Bucher
I was pleasantly surprised with this cookie. I love the burst of cookie butter in the middle. It has a good salty taste with just a little bit of sweetness.
Maggie
One of my new favorites! This cookie is so unique and yummy. I did put a tad bit too much cookie butter in the middle, but now I know for next time. Definitely will make again!
Joan
These are SO GOOD! One of my favorite recipes you have shared. I will definitely make these again and I have already shared the recipe.
Danielle Solis
These are so good! My family loved them! I’ve never used cookie butter before but it was creamy and made for a yummy cookie!
Rachel
My family liked these but my friends at work REALLY liked them! 🙂 My brother in law thought they had more of a salted caramel flavor. My sister said they were pretty. The texture is spot on.
Sofia
Sooo good. I did chill the cookie dough for a little bit. It came out perfect.
Kirsten McPherson
You just cannot go wrong with any of Brooke's recipes!! Especially if you're a cookie butter fan, these are a hit! So perfect for holiday baking.
Tara Smith
These are fabulous! I was not expecting them to actually taste so much like cookie butter, but I was extremely pleased. Cookie butter is one of my favorite treats. I highly recommend adding the sea salt to the top, perfect combo.
Andrea
My family claims they don’t like cookie butter…and yet they couldn’t stop eating these cookies. I liked the surprise bite of biscoff in the middle, but think the cookies would still be delicious without it.
Jackie
Amazing recipe but can we add white chocolate chips or would it be overkill?
Jackie
Let me begin by saying I love love love the cookies this author makes. They always are easy to follow quick to make and the bake time and temperature are perfect resulting in beautiful uniform crackled bakery looking and tasting cookies every single time. I love her site and everything she makes. I was excited to do these cookies as they are my first stuffed cookie and first biscoff Cookie I've ever baked or tried on both accounts. The filling was amazing and as always the recipe was flawless. The cookie base texture was amazing but the one thing that didn't do it for me was the taste of the cookie base. To me personally it didn't scream biscoff which was surprising because of how much biscoff is in the cookie dough itself. I'm glad it wasn't overwhelmingly sweet and the salt was a wonderful touch and the texture of the cookie with the gooey middle was stunning but the cookie base flavor wasn't what I wanted from a biscoff Cookie. That could just be personal opinion! There's nothing wrong with this recipe at all I just wanted something more biscoffy. People rave about biscoff cookies and I think maybe adding cookie crumbs for some texture or the spices used in biscoff or even brown butter or all brown sugar would have helped enhance the base flavor. Overall I enjoyed these but they weren't my favorite ever and I was a little let down by the flavor. But as far as other cookies go I haven't stopped baking her peanut butter cookies or chocolate chip ones and I'm going to try the red velvet ones next. Thank you for your beautiful recipes I hope this isn't taking wrongly!

These cookies were a delightful surprise. My family loved them and I took them to a youth group where the first reactions were, "WHOA" "This cookie is FIRE!" Totally made my night. Thanks for a fun, new and creative recipe. Also, for the record, they look beautiful on the plate with the drizzle.

I have tried lots of ways to get Biscoff Cookie Butter into my mouth and this is such an amazing combination of sweet and salty, with that extra deliciousness in the middle.
Shannen
I am pretty good at baking, and there are a couple salted sweets that I make this one by far and away has been the most popular! Thank you so much for this amazing recipe. It is also extremely easy!!
Carolyn
The Salted Sweets is my go-to when I need to bring something somewhere and I don't have time for it to be just "so-so" - I know with 100% certainty that Brooke's recipes will be 10/10.
These biscoff cookies didn't disappoint. I saw a similar recipe on Pinterest and immediately looked on this site to see if she had one and I was so excited! I can't wait to bring these to my son's football game tomorrow.
Brooke Homec
Thank you so much Carolyn!
