Graham Cracker Butter

August 8, 2016 by The Emotional Baker 58 Comments

An easy recipe that transforms regular graham crackers into dreamy butter

Graham Cracker Butter

When I fall for something, I fall hard. Remember my smoothie obsession? And my salad obsession? And of course, my granola obsession?

Graham Cracker Butter

Well, another thing is simple nut butter sandwiches. But I have a confession – I take those two slices of bread and innocent cashew butter – and add some sinful toppings.

Like cookie butter.

& chocolate chips.

(& leftover Easter candy.)

Graham Cracker Butter

I was using store bought cookie butter. Of course, I considered making my own, but remember that time I ate a whole jar in two days! So, I thought it might be a wee too dangerous to have homemade in my reach.

But then, these leftover graham crackers from this Key Lime Pie were calling my name.

I’ll admit I was a bit skeptical this would be as delicious as say Biscoff. The first time I had it I thought – hmm – kinda bland. But then I fell in love. & have made several batches since.

Graham Cracker Butter

If you want to take your PB&J from ordinary to extraordinary, I highly recommend you add some of this Graham Cracker Butter.

Today Iโ€™m sharing this recipe on My Cooking Spot, so be sure to check it out.

Or stick around here and check out this Coconut Cashew Butter.

    Okay, confession: I’ve never had cookie butter. I know, I know! I’m just afraid that if I try it, I won’t be able to stop eating it. It’s an actual concern I have.
    This looks amazing, though. I might have to break my resolve!

    What a fascinating idea! I personally think of you as my cookie butter/nut butter friend. ๐Ÿ˜‰ How could I possibly forget your delicious cashew butter granola? It’s so interesting that you only used 2 ingredients for this! You can really make butter out of anything, huh? Loved seeing you on My Cooking Spot, friend. ๐Ÿ™‚ Have a wonderful weekend. xoxo

    Wait…graham cracker butter?! This is such an incredible idea…and I had no idea you could make it at home. You’re a culinary wizard, Megan! We are huge fans of Biscoff over here (we’ve even been to the factory in Belgium!), so anything that reminds me of Biscoff is sure to be a winner…and is sure to disappear within hours not days. Thanks for this recipe…hopping over to check it out now!
