Directions
To make the speculoos cream, first crumble the speculoos cookies finely. I recommend using a blender or food processor so that the cookies are really fine. Leave a few pieces for decoration later.
In a medium saucepan, heat the whipping cream, sugar and salt over low heat until the sugar has completely dissolved. During my years of experience, I have learned that low-and-slow is the key to achieving the perfect consistency and avoiding burning.
Once the cream is hot, add the crumbled cookies and vanilla extract and stir well. Make sure that the cookie crumbs are completely covered by the cream. Allow the mixture to simmer for about 5 minutes until it thickens slightly.
Next, pour the mixture into a jar or other storage container and leave to cool. The cream will continue to thicken as it cools.
Finally, sprinkle the remaining cookie crumbs over the top of the cream. Now your homemade speculaas cream is ready to enjoy!
This delicious speculoos cream is perfect as a spread on bread, as a dip for fruit or simply on its own with a spoon. It is a festive treat that is wonderful to share and will delight any dessert lover. Have fun trying it out!
