How to Make It
Get ready to enjoy your homemade Cookie Butter Latte by following these simple steps.
Brew the espresso
Brew the iced espresso and let it cool. This step ensures your latte stays refreshing without melting the ice too quickly.
Mix the cookie butter
In a separate cup, mix the Biscoff spread with a little hot water to loosen it up and combine it with the cooled espresso.
Pour over ice
Pour the mixture over ice in a glass for a chilled experience. Make sure to fill the glass generously with ice for the best flavor.
Whip the cold foam
In another bowl, whip the heavy cream with vanilla extract and a pinch of cinnamon until it’s fluffy. This will create a delicious cold foam to top your drink.
Top the espresso
Top your espresso mix with the cookie butter cold foam. The fluffy texture contrasts beautifully with the liquid below.
Serve with a sprinkle

How to Store It

Freezer: No, it does not freeze well due to cream.
