Cookie Butter. White Chocolate. Really, does it get any better than that? I have wanted to cook with Cookie Butter ever since I started seeing the myriad of recipes showing up on Pinterest using this ingredient, which previously I was more than satisfied eating right out of the jar with a spoon. Seriously, have you tried this stuff? If not, you need to stop reading this blog (but come back later), go to Trader Joe's, and get some of this creamy cookie goodness!!
I was lucky to have a jar of this in my house and to keep my husband's spoon out of the jar long enough to finally put it into a recipe. *Note* all bets were off after the jar was opened, and it is pretty much gone only a few days later. Anyway, I had also around the same time decided that I wanted to try to make muddy buddies. It appears that muddy buddies have been popular for quite some time, but I seriously had NEVER heard of them. However, I was intrigued as it seemed easy to make with a basically unlimited ability to tailor a basic recipe to try new flavor combinations. So I settled on two of my favorite things, white chocolate and cookie butter. I was not disappointed.
