If you’re a Biscoff lover, this dessert will be your new favorite, because once you try it, you’ll be hooked!

Ingredients

For the Crust:

• 2 cups crushed Biscoff cookies (250 g) – These spiced cookies make the most irresistible crunchy crust.

• 7 tbsp unsalted butter, melted (100 g) – Melted butter holds the cookie crumbs together perfectly.

For the Filling:

• 16 oz cream cheese, softened (500 g) – The creamy base that gives this cheesecake its luscious texture.

• ½ cup granulated sugar (100 g) – Just the right amount of sweetness to balance the cookie butter.

• ¾ cup Biscoff spread (200 g) – The star of the show, adding that caramelized cookie flavor in every bite.

• 1 tsp vanilla extract (5 ml) – A little splash of vanilla makes the filling extra fragrant.

• ¾ cup heavy cream, cold (200 ml) – Whipped cream folded in for a light, fluffy texture.

• ⅔ cup dark chocolate chips, melted (optional) (100 g) – For chocolate lovers, this adds a decadent twist.

For the Topping:

• ⅓ cup heavy cream (100 ml) – Gently warmed to help create a silky topping.

• 3 tbsp Biscoff spread (50 g) – Melted into the cream for a glossy, flavorful finish.

• Crushed Biscoff cookies and chocolate shavings, for garnish – A little crunch and a touch of chocolate to make it look bakery-worthy.

1. Crush Biscoff cookies into fine crumbs and mix with melted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch (23 cm) springform pan. Chill while preparing the filling.

2. In a bowl, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add Biscoff spread and vanilla extract, then mix until fully combined. In a separate bowl, whip cold heavy cream to soft peaks and fold it gently into the cream cheese mixture. If desired, fold in melted chocolate chips for a chocolate twist.

3. Spread the filling over the crust in two layers. For added texture, sprinkle crushed Biscoff cookies in between. Smooth the top and refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight.

4. Warm heavy cream and Biscoff spread in a small saucepan or microwave until smooth. Let it cool slightly before pouring over the chilled cheesecake.

5. Garnish with crushed Biscoff cookies and chocolate shavings. Slice and serve chilled.

Tips & Tricks for Perfect Biscoff Cheesecake

• Chill your cheesecake for at least 6 hours (overnight is even better) so it sets up beautifully and slices cleanly.

• Make sure your cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing, this keeps the filling silky smooth with no lumps.

• When whipping the cream, stop at soft peaks so it folds into the filling easily without deflating.

• Don’t skip lining the bottom of your springform pan with parchment paper, it makes serving so much easier.

• If you love extra crunch, sprinkle some crushed Biscoff cookies between the filling layers for surprise bites of cookie goodness.

• Use a hot, sharp knife to slice the cheesecake. Wipe the knife clean between slices for those picture-perfect edges.

• Want an extra fancy finish? Drizzle a little melted chocolate or caramel over the top before serving.

Serving

• I like to serve this cheesecake nice and chilled, it tastes even creamier when it’s cold.

• A drizzle of warm cookie butter or caramel right before serving makes it feel extra indulgent.

• Add a dollop of whipped cream on the side if you want to dress it up for guests.

• This cheesecake pairs beautifully with a cup of coffee or even a glass of milk for a cozy treat.

• For special occasions, garnish each slice with extra cookie crumbs or a little chocolate shaving so it looks bakery-style.

Storing

• Keep your cheesecake covered in the fridge, either in an airtight container or wrapped snugly in plastic wrap, and it’ll stay fresh for 4–5 days.

• If you’ve added cookie crumbs or chocolate shavings on top, it’s best to store those separately and sprinkle them on just before serving so they stay crunchy.

• For longer storage, wrap individual slices in plastic wrap and pop them in a freezer-safe bag or container, they’ll keep in the freezer for up to 2 months.

• When you’re ready to enjoy, let frozen slices thaw overnight in the fridge so they’re just as creamy as the day you made them.
