Speculoos
Had I known that homemade speculoos were so delicious and easy to make, I would have baked them much earlier.
You don’t necessarily need the typical speculoos moulds for this, you can use an impression rolling pin.

- 1 tsp baking powder
- a pinch of salt
- 250 g cold butter
- 2 eggs
-
Mix flour, almonds, sugar, speculoos spice, baking powder and salt in a bowl.
-
Add cubed butter and crumble.
-
Add eggs and knead to a dough.
-
Wrap in cling film and cool in fridge for minimum half an hour.
-
Cut dough in two halves. Roll out first half on floured surface.
-
Then roll with impression rolling pin if one at hand and using a cookie cutter, cut out forms. *
-
Place on a baking tray with baking paper.
-
Bake in preheated oven at 180° C for about 9 – 10 minutes.
-
* Same procedure with second half.
Of course you can also use speculoos forms or a cookie stamp.
Enjoy baking!
