Iconic Speculaas Cookies Recipe
Source: Bigger Bolder Baking
Our Rating: 4/5
Happy National Cookie Day! For this year's edition I decided to go with an "iconic" cookie. The speculaas cookie is a classic (think the flavor of the little cookies you get on airplanes) and surprisingly easy to whip together. It's a variety of spices that just add that little oomph to the cookie.
I just love the color the spices give to the dough. The original recipe I used calls for rolling out the cookies with an embossed rolling pin, then cutting even cookies with a circle cookie cutter. This did not work out well for me. I fully blame the rolling pin I got, the pattern just wasn't very deep or visible once rolled which was a major bummer.
These cookies baked up beautifully and had a great crispness to them. I packed them up with some other classics for a great little holiday treat box and they rounded out the flavor profiles nicely.
