Notes

Replace vanilla extract (if originally used) with non-alcoholic vanilla flavoring.
- 1 shot espresso or ¼ cup strong brewed coffee
- 1 tbsp cookie butter (I used Biscoff spread)
- ¾ cup milk (I used whole milk, but any milk works!)
- ½ tsp vanilla extract (optional, but highly recommended for an extra cozy vibe)
- Ice
- Optional toppings: crushed Biscoff cookies or Biscoff foam
Step-by-Step Instructions
- Brew Your Coffee: Start by brewing one shot of espresso or ¼ cup of your favorite strong brewed coffee. The stronger, the better here, to stand up to that delicious cookie butter!
- Melt the Cookie Butter: Add the cookie butter to the hot espresso. Give it a good whisk until the cookie butter is completely melted and smoothly combined with the coffee. This is where the magic starts!
- Add Vanilla (if using): Stir in the vanilla extract now if you’re using it. It adds a lovely layer of flavor.
- Prepare Your Glass: Grab a tall glass and fill it with ice.
- Combine & Stir: Pour your cookie butter and espresso mixture over the ice. Then, slowly add the milk while stirring gently. Watch those beautiful layers come together!
- Garnish (Optional): If you’re feeling extra fancy, top your Iced Cookie Butter Latte with some crushed Biscoff cookies or a swirl of Biscoff foam. It’s not just for looks; it adds extra texture and flavor!
Equipment
- Espresso machine or coffee maker
- Whisk
- Tall glass
Tips & Variations
- Make it Frothy: For a more decadent feel, froth your milk before adding it. You can use a milk frother, a whisk, or even a French press.
- Sweetness Adjustment: If you like your latte sweeter, add a tiny bit of brown sugar or maple syrup when you melt the cookie butter.
- Coffee Strength: Not a fan of strong coffee? Use a lighter roast or adjust the amount of espresso/coffee to your preference.
- Dairy-Free Delight: This recipe works wonderfully with oat milk, almond milk, or soy milk for a dairy-free option.
- Common Mistake to Avoid: Don’t try to add cookie butter to cold coffee directly without melting it first. It won’t mix properly and you’ll end up with lumps!

FAQ Section
Can I make this Iced Cookie Butter Latte ahead of time?
You can brew the espresso and melt the cookie butter ahead of time and store it in the fridge. When you’re ready to enjoy, just add ice and cold milk! However, for the freshest taste, it’s best made right before serving.
What if I don’t have an espresso machine?
No problem! You can use ¼ cup of very strong brewed coffee, instant espresso powder mixed with a small amount of hot water, or even Moka pot coffee. The key is to have a concentrated coffee flavor.
Can I use a different type of cookie butter?
Absolutely! While Biscoff provides that classic taste, feel free to experiment with other brands of cookie butter if you have a favorite. Just ensure it melts smoothly.
How can I make a Biscoff foam for my latte?
You can gently warm about ¼ cup of milk with ½ teaspoon of cookie butter, then froth it until foamy. Alternatively, a dollop of whipped cream with a drizzle of melted cookie butter works wonders too!
Is this recipe naturally sweet enough, or do I need to add more sugar?
Cookie butter is quite sweet on its own, so many find this recipe perfectly balanced. However, if you have a serious sweet tooth, feel free to add a touch more sugar or a pump of vanilla syrup to your Iced Cookie Butter Latte.
