I am head over heals for Speculoos crepes! Speculoos cookies were traditionally baked just before St. Nicolas' feast on December 5th in the Netherlands, Belgium, and nothern France. However, now they are available all year round! The cookies contain cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, ginger, cardamon, and white pepper, they taste similar to gingerbread cookies, but WAY better! Any who, this speculoos paste is drizzled on crepes and can be added to anything else. I'm in love.
