Hi Bold Bakers!
Ever wondered how to use Cookie Butter? Well if the answer is YES then you are in the right place.
I’ve made recipes for 3 different Homemade Cookie Butters: Nutter Butter, Oreo and Shortbread. Each flavor is more delicious than the next but that’s just the beginning. Below I’ll show you how to use your cookie butters to make a variety of amazing desserts.
Homemade Peanut Butter Cups
I think these Peanut Butter Cups are even better than the store bought ones. Find out how easy they are to make.

Brush a thin layer of melted chocolate in a small cupcake liner.

Once the chocolate shell has set, fill it up with your Homemade Nutter Butter Cookie Butter.

Pour more melted milk chocolate on top to seal your cup. Enjoy immediately!
