speculoos
Cinnamon-spiced Belgian biscuit
Speculoos is a type of spiced shortcrust biscuit originating in Belgium and the Netherlands, traditionally baked for St.
Nicholas Day.
The cookies are thin, crunchy, and flavored with cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and brown sugar.
Speculoos spread—a paste made from crushed cookies—has become popular as a topping: speculoos on toast, speculoos ice cream.
