Speculoos ( aka Biscoff ) Cream Cheese Buns : Perfect, served while still warm, releasing the flavours of Speculoos and lemon, enriched with cream cheese.
When started to develop the buns, I had several options in my mind to try and the first batch I made was with pumpkin butter.

The next one ( we liked it so much, even more than pumpkin version ) is this one published today :
