Biscoff Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Biscoff Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookies

Just a few short months ago I discovered the amazingness that is Biscoff spread, also known to some as Speculos. For those unfamiliar with Biscoff spread, you may have had Biscoff cookies, as they are commonly served on planes. The cookies taste somewhat like cinnamon graham crackers, and Biscoff spread is made to taste exactly like the cookies, except in a spread form with the consistency of peanut butter. Even though I am not wild about Biscoff cookies, I have been pretty obsessed with the spread ever since trying it. When I tell people about it, I describe it as "right up there with Nutella" which is a bold statement coming from me. Ever since discovering Biscoff spread, I have had fun trying to incorporate it into my baking, as like anything else so incredibly delicious, it goes well with just about anything. Here's how I incorporated it into an oatmeal cookie recipe:

Ingredients:

*1 stick butter, softened
*1/3 cup Crisco butter flavored shortening
*1/4 cup Biscoff spread
*3 eggs
*1 tsp vanilla
*1 cup brown sugar
*3/4 cup white sugar
*2 ¼ cups flour
*1 tsp salt
*1 tsp cornstarch
*2 tsp baking soda
*1 tsp cinnamon
*2 cups oats
*1 ½ cups chocolate chips
