Frequently Asked Questions
1. Can I use regular marshmallows instead of mini ones?
Yes! Just chop them into smaller pieces so they melt more evenly—use about 40 large marshmallows.
2. Is Biscoff the same as cookie butter?
Pretty much! Biscoff is a brand of cookie butter made from speculoos cookies. You can also use Trader Joe’s cookie butter or any similar spread.
3. Can I make these gluten-free?
Yes—just make sure your Rice Krispies cereal and cookie butter are labeled gluten-free.
4. What’s the best way to melt cookie butter?
Just pop it in the microwave for 15–20 seconds to make it easier to drizzle or stir in.
5. Can I double the recipe?
Absolutely! Use a 9×13-inch pan and double all the ingredients for a bigger batch.
6. Why are my treats too hard?
It usually means the mixture was packed too tightly or cooked too long. Be gentle when pressing into the pan and remove from heat as soon as everything’s melted.
7. Can I make these vegan?
Yes—use vegan marshmallows and a dairy-free butter alternative. Make sure your cookie butter is also plant-based (most are).
