I'm fascinated by cookie butter. Do you know what it is? Its a creamy pasty butter made from shortbread type cookies that tastes like a mixture of snickerdoodles and gingerbread. Well, that's the best explanation I can give anyways... the label on the Trader Joe's container says that you just have to try it to know what it tastes like... it's hard to pin down. I made Cookie Butter Cake yesteday and GODDAMN its delicious. I used vanilla cake, and layered straight cookie butter in the middle along with a cookie butter cream cheese frosting. The result was life changing. I have a favorite cream cheese frosting recipe, and it's the only one I use anymore. It contains mostly cream cheese (important), a little butter (little is important) and also sour cream. This gives it a super light consistency that isn't too sweet or too heavy. Ahem: Jes's Favorite Cream Cheese Frosting: 16 oz cream cheese 1/2 c. softened butter 1/4 c. sour cream 4 c. powdered sugar and a dash of vanilla. Whip the cream cheese with the paddle until its super light and smooth. Add the butter and whip again. Add the rest of the ingredients and scrape and whisk until its evenly combined. You can leave the mixer on high speed for a couple minutes to add some extra fluffy air if you would like... I added about a 1/2 cup of cookie butter at the end and the flavor was pleasantly smooth. Frost and devour. xoxo
