Raspberry Cookie Butter Swirl Rolls


Photo and Recipe By: Buns In My Oven

Ingredients:

1 package Crescent Dough Creations (seamless crescent roll dough)
1/2 cup Speculoos Spread

1/2 cup frozen or fresh raspberries

Directions:

Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
Unroll the sheet of crescent roll on a sheet of parchment paper. Spread the Speculoos to the edges of the crescent dough. Sprinkle evenly with the raspberries.
Starting with the long side roll up the dough tightly, jelly roll style. Cut into 8 1-inch pices and arrange on a parchment lined baking sheet.
Bake for 12-13 minutes or until golden brown and the centers are cooked through. The centers do take a bit longer than usual to cook because of the Speculoos Spread, so pay close attention to be sure they cook through.
Let cool for 5 minutes before serving.

Mix until thickened, about 25 minutes. Spoon in the Speculoos spread (while still mixing) and continue mixing an additional 5 minutes. Turn off and pour into a freezer safe container. Freeze for 2 hours (or overnight) before using in the ice cream sandwiches.
  2. For the cookies, beat butter with sugars until combined. Add Speculoos, milk and vanilla and beat 1-2 minutes. Add egg. Beat in flour, salt and baking powder.
  3. Drop cookies by 2Tbsp scoop onto a parchment paper lined baking sheet. Bake in a 375 degree F oven for 11-13 minutes.
  4. Remove and cool on pan for 3 minutes, then transfer to wire rack to cool completely.
  5. To assemble, pair cookies into same sized pairs. Scoop one large scoop of icecream onto one cookie. Top with second cookie, pressing slightly. Enjoy immediately or wrap cookies individually in foil and return to freezer to enjoy later!
Notes
**Make your ice cream according to YOUR machine directions for vanilla ice cream. Add Speculoos in during the last 5 minutes. It's okay if it doesn't mix in completely, the unmixed Speculoos freezes into delicious chunks! **If you don't want to make ice cream sandwiches, you can enjoy the soft ice cream immediately. Store ice cream in freezer safe container for up to one week. ENJOY. **to keep your cookies nice a flat, freeze cookies for one hour before adding ice cream.
