Current Obsession: Cookie Butter

Each Saturday, I will be posting my obsession of the week.

This week's craving: Trader Joe's Speculoos Cookie Butter.

I always try to eat healthy, and most of the time I do well, but the Cookie Butter staring at me everytime I open the cupboard makes that difficult. If you haven't tried it, Cookie Butter, in all of its sweet, creamy, gingerbread-y goodness is completely addicting. One taste, and you're hooked.

For me, my favorite way to consume it is so put a spoonful on top of plain oats for breakfast, or a mid-afternoon snack when my sweet tooth hits. It starts to melt, and becomes gooey and even more delicious. I haven't tried it with anything else, but I can only guess how amazing it would be on top of almond biscotti, or spread on apples and bananas. But if you just want to spoon it out of the jar, while watching a rom-com on Netflix, I will never judge you because I totally understand.

They also make a Crunchy Cookie Butter, a Cookies & Cream Cookie Butter, and a Cookie & Cocoa Swirl Cookie Butter to satisfy every sweet tooth.

In terms of healthy eating, Fooducate rated Cookie Butter as a C, which is something I can deal with for the occasional spoonful. That's why it's my guilty pleasure, and that's why Cookie Butter is my current obsession :)

My advice to you? Get in your car, drive to Trader Joe's, and grab a jar (or five) of Cookie Butter and enjoy.

Happy Saturday!
