Ingredients for Cookie Butter Latte

  • 1 tablespoon cookie butter (smooth or crunchy)
  • 1 shot of espresso (or 1/2 cup of brewed coffee)
  • 1 cup milk (or dairy-free version like oat milk or almond milk)
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar (optional, for extra sweetness)
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract (optional)
  • Ground cinnamon or nutmeg for garnish (optional)
  • Whipped cream (optional, for extra indulgence)

How to Make a Cookie Butter Latte

Step 1: Brew the Espresso (or Coffee)

Start by brewing one shot of espresso. If you don’t have an espresso machine, you can use about 1/2 cup of strong brewed coffee as a substitute. Set the espresso aside while you prepare the rest of the drink.

Step 2: Heat the Milk

In a small saucepan, pour in your milk (or dairy-free milk). Heat it over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent it from scalding. Heat until the milk is hot but not boiling. You can also froth the milk if you like a creamy texture for your latte. If you have a milk frother, now’s the time to use it!

Step 3: Mix the Cookie Butter

Add the cookie butter to the hot milk and stir until it fully dissolves. If you want extra sweetness, you can also stir in 1 tablespoon of brown sugar. Continue stirring until the cookie butter is completely blended into the milk and the mixture is smooth.

Step 4: Combine the Espresso and Cookie Butter Milk

Pour the freshly brewed espresso (or coffee) into a mug. Slowly pour the cookie butter milk over the espresso, stirring gently to combine.

Step 5: Garnish and Serve

Top your cookie butter latte with a dollop of whipped cream (optional) for a decadent touch. Sprinkle with a little ground cinnamon or nutmeg for an added touch of spice, and enjoy your homemade latte!


Tips for the Best Cookie Butter Latte

  1. Use a high-quality cookie butter: The flavor of your latte will depend largely on the cookie butter you choose. Look for one with a good balance of sweetness and spices. I personally love the Biscoff creamy cookie butter or the Trader Joes Speculoos cookie butter.
  2. Froth your milk: For a more authentic coffeehouse experience, froth your milk! This adds a creamy texture that makes the drink even more indulgent. I promise you won’t regret this step.

Get Creative with Your Cookie Butter Latte

Feel free to get creative with this cookie butter latte and make it your own! Try swapping out regular milk for your favorite dairy-free option like oat milk or almond milk for a richer, creamier texture. If you’re craving a stronger flavor, add a dash of pumpkin spice or ginger to spice things up. You can also experiment with different types of cookie butter—smooth, crunchy, or even a flavored version like cinnamon swirl. And don’t forget to adjust the sweetness to your taste—add a little extra sugar or drizzle with caramel sauce for an indulgent twist.

The best part? This recipe is super customizable, so make it your perfect cozy drink!


Why You’ll Love This Cookie Butter Latte

The rich, spiced flavor of the cookie butter blends perfectly with the bold espresso and smooth milk, creating a cozy drink that’s ideal for sipping on a chilly day. Plus, it’s a great way to satisfy your sweet tooth without having to leave the house.
