Cookie Butter Coffeecake

-

Cookie butter, a spread made from Biscoff cookies, transforms classic coffeecake into a magical cross between cookie and cake that you will want with every cup of coffee.

Makes 10 to 12 servings

3 cups flour

1 1⁄4 cups granulated sugar

1 tablespoon baking powder

1⁄2 teaspoon baking soda

1⁄2 teaspoon salt

3 eggs

1 cup buttermilk

1⁄4 cup sour cream

2 tablespoon­s Biscoff creamy cookie butter (or another brand)

3⁄4 cup (1 1⁄2 sticks) unsalted butter, melted

For the streusel:

1 1⁄4 cups Biscoff cookie crumbs (or crumbs from a similar cookie such as Speculoos)

1⁄4 cup flour

3⁄4 cup packed brown sugar

1⁄4 teaspoon salt

1⁄2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, melted

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease a 13-by-9-inch baking pan.

Combine dry ingredient­s in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk eggs, buttermilk and sour cream until combined. Whisk in cookie butter and melted butter. Add wet ingredient­s to dry and stir with a spatula or wooden spoon until combined. Batter will be very thick.

Make streusel: Combine cookie crumbs, flour, sugar and salt in a bowl. Add melted butter and stir until mixture is moistened and clumps together.

Spread half the batter in bottom of prepared baking pan. Warm 1⁄2 cup Biscoff spread in microwave and drizzle over batter. Sprinkle on one-fourth of the streusel in an even layer. Add remaining batter, using a spatula to spread it evenly. Top with remaining streusel. Bake in preheated oven 50 to 60 minutes until a tester inserted into center comes out clean.
