Instructions
-
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and position a rack in the center.
-
Crush the Speculoos cookies in a food processor or place them in a sealed plastic bag and crush them with a rolling pin until fine crumbs form. You should have roughly 2 cups of crushed cookies.
-
In a medium bowl, mix the crushed Speculoos cookies, melted butter, and granulated sugar until well combined. The mixture should resemble wet sand and hold together when pinched.
-
Press the cookie mixture evenly into the bottom and up the sides of a 9-inch pie plate, tart pan, or springform pan using the back of a spoon or your fingers. Ensure the crust is tightly packed for a firm base.
-
Place the crust in the preheated oven and bake for 8-10 minutes or until set. The crust will begin to turn golden brown and fragrant.
-
Remove the crust from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack before filling with your favorite dessert mixture.
-
Once filled and chilled as per your recipe, slice and serve your delectable dessert.
