If you’re obsessed with cookie butter (like me), you need to try this Cookie Butter White Russian. It’s rich, creamy, and packed with that warm, spiced cookie flavor.
Basically, it tastes like a boozy Biscoff cookie dipped in cream—aka, pure heaven in a glass.
Let’s make it!
What You’ll Need
- 1 oz vodka
- 1 oz coffee liqueur (like Kahlúa)
- 1 tbsp cookie butter (like Biscoff or Trader Joe’s Speculoos)
- 2 oz heavy cream (or milk for a lighter option)
- Ice
- Optional garnish: Crushed Biscoff cookies, whipped cream, whole Biscoff cookie
Pro Tips
- Melt the cookie butter. Microwave it for about 10 seconds so it mixes smoothly into the drink.
- Rim the glass with crushed cookies. Dip the rim in melted cookie butter first so the crumbs stick perfectly.
- Chill your glass. A cold glass keeps the drink frosty and makes it feel extra fancy.
- Layer like a pro. Pour the cream over the back of a spoon to get those dreamy swirls.
- Don’t skip the garnish. The whole cookie on top makes it feel like a true dessert cocktail!
Tools You’ll Need
- Small microwave-safe bowl (for cookie butter)
- Cocktail shaker or mixing glass
- Measuring jigger
- Bar spoon
- Short cocktail glass
- Ice scoop
Substitutions & Variations
- Dairy-free option: Use oat milk or coconut milk and top with coconut whipped cream.
- Extra cookie flavor: Add ½ oz of cinnamon or vanilla syrup.
- Boozier version: Swap vodka for bourbon or add a splash of caramel liqueur.
- Sweeter version: Drizzle caramel sauce inside the glass before pouring the drink.
