Normally- I don't comment on if I'm well. Today, I have to. I'm not. Rental company who now runs things has sent me to the hospital. They have ruined our lives. I have no legal recourse, no one to advocate for me, nada. I'm not feeling well (and no,I WILL NOT GO TO THE HOSPITAL. Once was bloody enough, especially after being treated like an animal.) So, today, and for the past month- I have not been well. Today is redlining the gauge. I just need to vent- as no one is gonna care past me screeching on.

[@emerje0]

Now that you've made Biscoffs you really need to show us how to make Biscoff spread/cookie butter.

[@phizzyC]

Would this work the same with margarine instead of butter? Biscoff is vegan and it would be lovely if this could be as well! (Also would love if you did more vegan cooking, please 😁)

Barry, over here in Belgium we grew up dipping speculoos in coffee an then before it breaks spread it on a piece of bread. You should try it. It's why they started making the spreads.

In the Netherlands they are quite popular. They are called "speculaas". We have a special mixture of spices, called "koek- & speculaas kruiden". Especially around Sinterklaas, on 5th December, but can be found all year round in the supermarket.

[@deereating9267]

If you roll out the cookie dough out between two layers of parchment paper before you refrigerate it, it will be easy to roll, and you can just take it out once it chills and cut it.

[@sharynr4067]

Genius!

[@WantedVisual]

Advice I got from 3 different cookie stamp designs, and generally found to be true: if you want a good stamped design to come through in your bake, use a sugary, crispy gingerbread-type cookie, don't use leaveners, avoid whipping in air and use melted butter. Actually, I have the week off. Might do the science and prove my hypothesis.

[@WantedVisual]

@Mckinley F’des Store was out of baking powder. Made delicious speculoos with nicely defined borders. Got threatened to have my annual gingerbread house plans vetoed if I made another batch and kept opposing my spouse's efforts to keep the house low on moreish snacks. Made a gingerbread Christmas tree three weeks later.

[@EthnobotanikFAQ]

Sometimes I’m baffled to find a video fitting exactly what I was looking for but being released just very recently like it was destiny. Will definitely try this recipe!

[@JelleHanssens]

So apparently the lotus version of speculoos only really has cinnamon in there. So basically biscoff is a cheaper version of speculoos which in its turn is a cheaper version of the Dutch speculaas :P

[@JaegerDreadful]

Speculoos>Speculaas tho, 100%

[@Tyrope]

@@JaegerDreadful I'll accept that statement as opinion as long as you accept that your opinion is incorrect. ;) (Just kidding, your opinion is valid, but I disagree)

[@TrenceA]

@@JaegerDreadful sugar syrup and some cinnamon over a whole host of spices? No way.

[@Tigerke1986]

True speculoos and speculaas are the exact same thing. Speculaas is dutch/flemish and speculoos comes from the french speaking side of the country. But on the box it will always say speculoos no matter the region you are in.

[@dimitrimichaux461]

@@Tigerke1986 no they are two different things. Speculoos only contains cinnamon as a spice and speculaas contains a whole mix of spices. As a Belgian I enjoy my coffee with a lotus speculoos, but on its own I really prefer speculaas and I think speculaas is just the better cookie. What Barry made here is speculaas.

[@zareenwaqar4089]

Today I tried it's amazing

[@Emopikachu93]

Never be afraid to fully incorporate your butter and sugar. You can't over mix those two because there is no gluten to overdevelop, but large chunks of butter are not always desirable.

[@Tala_Masca]

As a Dutchie I can say we have the same thing, speculaas. ( Like the speculatius in Belgium) lots of people eat it whole year round but I just eat them around Sinterklaas. And we always bake kruidnoten with the kids...

[@terminator30007]

Now we need homemade biscoff spread

[@kurtlambrechts]

I'm belgian and a huge fan of speculoos. The (belgian) lotus brand announced that in the near future they will change the belgian name from speculoos to biscoff, similar to other countries. It caused quite a stir here :-)

[@PeteJohnson1471]

UK Here, I felt the same when a Marathon chocolate bar was re branded to Snickers. And a kitchen cleaning product call JIff was changed to something that sounds more like an STD Ciff :-)

[@DaveTexas]

I introduced my husband to Biscoff a few weeks ago and now I think we’re going to go into debt over how many packages of different Biscoff products he’s bought. He bought a case each of the vanilla- and chocolate-filled sandwich biscuits! Every time we’re at the grocery store he buys several of the jumbo packages of biscuits. We have multiple jars of the Biscoff cookie butter in the cupboard. This recipe might just save our bank account, so thank you for that!

[@1erinjames]

@@Okurka. cookie butter. I should have clarified that.

[@yazzabanana]

Back in the day I think lotus' biscuits weren't branded as Biscoff...it was speculoos on the packet when you found them! I was obsessed as a child because of the history of speculoos molds! Our lower school emblem was an old St Nicholas speculoos press, from Belgium I think!

[@alishahird897]

I have a peanut/tree nut allergy and Biscoff is safe for me to eat. It also sells a cookie butter that's really good. It would be an interesting ingredient to try cooking with....I haven't had the courage to try .

I feel like until 2021 I had no idea there was an international name for Lotus speculoos. Honestly, that's quite handy because as a belgian trying to explain the flavour and what it is without them thinking I'm just obsessed with regular gingerbread is a challenge.

[@KaWouter_]

Another piece of history: here in Belgium you got Speculoos, whereas in the Netherlands Speculaas is more commonly used. Back in the day Belgians made their versions of speculaas, but did not have the rich amount of spices the Dutch had (Indian trade company ftw). -loos in Dutch means 'lacking' or 'without' and because the recipe was basically the same, but with less spices, they made it 'speculoos' rather than 'speculaas'.

[@gkingkongkev]

TIL. Though we (the Dutchies) do have something called Speculoos. Which is a spread for on bread. But it could be imported from Belgium.

[@KaWouter_]

@@gkingkongkev The speculoospasta is a Belgian invention and is basically speculoos biscuits ground up to a paste to put on bread. The origins for THAT lays with an inventor show on tv, where a woman knew that a lot of people are dipping their speculoos in coffee to make it soggy and then put it on bread as a spread. Her invention was picked up, but apparently, Lotus (from the speculoos) had a similar invention at the same time. Eventually, both came to the market, but the smaller fish was completely wiped off by Lotus (even though I thought it tasted better and had a better texture).

Belgian 🦭 of approval! 😂 One thing I want to mention is that speculoos and speculaas are not the same. For example, biscoff is speculoos. Speculaas has different spices and is from The Netherlands, because spices/herbs were very cheap over there they used different ones (VOC trading). Maybe an idea for a follow-up video, speculoos vs speculaas. 😉

[@ingeh6135]

I agree with my Belgium neighbour (dutch here) 😉 Speculoos is caramelised sugar based, where speculaas has more in common with gingerbread from the spiceblend point of view. So yes, follow up with loos vs laas😁
