Brown Butter Biscoff Snickerdoodles from Two Peas and Their Pod

Brown Butter Biscoff Snickerdoodles - made dough October 19, 2025 from Two Peas and Their Pod

3/4 cup unsalted butter, cut into tablespoons

2 1/2 cups all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking soda

2 teaspoons cream of tartar

1/2 teaspoon cinnamon

1/2 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup brown sugar, packed

1/2 cup granulated sugar

1/2 cup cookie butter

2 large eggs

2 teaspoons vanilla extract

1/2 cup cookie butter for the filling

1/3 cup granulated sugar

1 1/2 teaspoons cinnamon

1. In a heavy medium saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat, stirring constantly, until milk solids turn a golden brown. Remove from heat and let cool to room temperature.
2. In a medium bowl, stir together flour, baking soda, cream of tartar, cinnamon and salt; set aside.
3. In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment, combine cooled brown butter, brown sugar and granulated sugar. Cream together until well combined. 
4. Add cookie butter and mix until smooth and combined. Add eggs and vanilla, mixing until combined.
5. Add dry ingredients in two additions, mixing on low speed, until just combined.
6. Cover dough and chill for at least 30 minutes.
7. Form the dough into small balls and flatten slightly. Press an indent into 1 dough ball and place a teaspoon of cookie butter in the indent. Cover with a second dough ball, pinch seams together and roll into a smooth ball, ensuring no cookie butter filling is exposed. Repeat until all dough is formed. Cover and chill another 30 minutes.
8. When ready to bake, preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line baking sheets with parchment paper. In a small bowl, combine granulated sugar and cinnamon. Roll dough balls in mixture, covering completely. Evenly space on prepared baking sheets.
9. Bake 8 to 11 minutes or until edges are set and middles no longer look raw or shiny. Let cool on baking sheets for 5 minutes before removing to wire rack to cool completely. 

Cookie butter meets snickerdoodle. That's the best way to describe these cookies as they're "stuffed" with cookie butter and rolled in cinnamon sugar prior to baking. 

These were good. A bit sweeter than I expected and a little more crisp than I normally like my cookies but those are my fussy taste buds talking. I gave 4 of them away to someone, expecting she'd eat two and give two to her husband. After we met and I handed off the cookies, she texted me later and confessed she ate two in the car on her way home and hid the other two from her husband. LOLOL. You can't ask for a more genuine testimonial than that. I guess she liked the cookies.
