The Javamelts Caramel Flavored Sugar takes these homemade Biscoff cookies over the top. However, if you don’t have caramel flavored sugar, you can use regular sugar in this recipe. It won’t have quite the same depth of flavor but still be delicious.

Storage

These cookies are a great make ahead! Not only are they delectable on their own but they are ideal to use in other recipes such as the crust for a cheesecake or as part of a no-bake dessert. You can keep them in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week…if they last that long!
