Cookie Butter + White Chocolate
While browsing the aisles of Trader Joe’s a couple of weeks ago, I spotted the beloved cookie butter! I literally took a spoon to the jar… okay I’ll stop there. Let me just tell you that it is addicting!
I decided to take this beloved cookie butter and mix up my traditional white chocolate popcorn. The cookie butter flavor really takes it up a notch. If you really love cookie butter, you could even add in an extra Tablespoon of two.
This recipe really is so easy to make and I promise you the cookie butter makes ALL the difference.
Ingredients
- Popcorn – You can pop a batch of stovetop popcorn or use pre-made. I like to buy the big bags of Skinny Pop at Costco to keep on hand.
- White Chocolate – I love to use the Ghirardelli white chocolate melting wafers. However, you can substitute for white chocolate chips or almond bark.
- Cookie Butter – I find my cookie butter at Trader Joe’s. You could also use a Biscoff spread.

Does the Biscoff keep the candy coating or chocolate from setting up properly? I made some, and the candy coating is still sticky soft.
Hi! I haven’t had that issue before, it has always hardened for me! It could be different altitudes that change the consistency?
Is there a difference between the candy coating and the candy melts? Could you just use alot of candu melts instead?
Yes you can definitely use candy melts instead! :)
I bet this would be good with rice chex too as a type of chex mix!
Ooooh…this would be delicious with rice chex! So many possibilities! :)
Re: popcorn with cookie butter recipe, did you salt the popcorn? Ty.
Hi Sherry! I didn’t salt my popcorn, but you definitely could if you want a sweet/salty taste! :)
Amazing! This is so good! I am making this for a baby shower (using blue candies!), but wanted to test out today, so I made it Valentine’s Day inspired. I only had 12oz. white chocolate and it was plenty to coat the popcorn.
I’m glad you liked it Heather! What a great idea to use blue candies for a baby shower! Thanks for sharing! :)
If you cannot find cookie butter, look for Biscoff spread. It is available at most major retailers/grocery stores and is the original cookie butter.
Would this work with Nutella?
I think it would be amazing with nutella! Great idea!
This looks AMAZING!!!!!!!!! I really want to make this as a craft at a cooking clinic with about 8 girls. How much popcorn do you think I will need? thanks!
It depends how much you want each of them to take home. I would probably double the recipe! :)
Hi! I stumbled upon this while looking for candy recipes for Christmas. I’m from the Philippines and I don’t think we have candiquick here. What would be a good alternative that I can use? Will white chocolate work? Thanks!
I haven’t tried this recipe with white chocolate, but it should work just fine and it will taste delicious!!
This looks so magical. Like unicorns created it and sprinkled it with sparkles. Thanks for sharing!
I can’t wait to try this! I LOVE TJ’s Cookie Butter!
It looks delightful! I don’t live near a Trader Joes and I have never heard of Bishcoff. Describe a little what the two products are and how they differ from plain peanut butter. Thanks.
I found biscoff spread at Walmart. They also have it at World Market. It is a sweet creamy spread.
Does anyone know if I can use plain pre popped, microwave or jiffy pop? I do not have an air popper and my pots are very heavy (not about to do the old school shake a pot method).
Yes, you can definitely use microwave popcorn… just make sure to take out any un-popped kernels. :)
what is candy quick.
It’s similar to white chocolate. You can find it in the baking section. Here’s a link: http://www.candiquik.com/
I can’t wait to try this, we can’t use m&me because of food allergies but I want to try mini eggs instead :) thank you for this recipe
Ha! I’ve never heard of this but you better believe I’m getting some very soon! The popcorn looks ah-mazing. Thank you!
I just need a Trader Joe’s near me :( Will have to try it with biscoff!
My mother-in-law found the cookie butter on a trip to TJ. It is some tasty stuff! The ‘cookie butter popcorn’ sounds like it is right on the verge of being sinful ;) It does look like an excellent Easter treat to bag up and give away.
OH, MY GOSH! Cool — I have to make this for my popcorn loving sweet daughter! She just loves popcorn and will flip over this! Thanks for posting!
