Recipe Notes
Please note that the cup measurements in this recipe are approximate. I have added cups for those that prefer using cups. The recipe is most accurate using weights measurements.
- Kruidnoten taste great dipped in chocolate as well.
- Check out my recipe to make your own Speculaas Spice Mix / Dutch cookie spice mix (speculaaskruiden / koekkruiden).
- Pumpkin Pie spice mix can also be used instead of Speculaas Spice Mix / Dutch cookie spice mix (speculaaskruiden / koekkruiden). The taste won’t be exactly the same but both spice mixes have similarities.
