Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 2 cups Biscoff Cookie Crumbs (substitute with graham crackers or digestive biscuits if desired)
  • 1/2 cups Biscoff Cookie Butter
  • 1/2 cups Unsalted Butter, melted (coconut oil for dairy-free option)
  • 1/4 cups Brown Sugar (granulated sugar as substitute)
  • Pinch of salt

Cheesecake Filling

  • 16 oz Cream Cheese, room temperature (Neufchâtel cream for lower-fat)
  • 3/4 cups Granulated Sugar (coconut sugar as substitute)
  • 1/2 cups Biscoff Cookie Butter
  • 3 large Eggs (aquafaba for vegan alternative)
  • 1 cups Sour Cream (Greek yogurt substitute)
  • 1 cups Heavy Cream (full-fat coconut milk for dairy-free)
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract

Whipped Cream Topping

  • 1 cups Heavy Cream, chilled
  • 1 cups Powdered Sugar (no substitute recommended)
  • 6 whole Biscoff Cookies for garnish
  • Additional Biscoff Cookie Crumbs for dusting

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C). In a mixing bowl, combine Biscoff cookie crumbs, melted butter, Biscoff cookie butter, brown sugar, and a pinch of salt. Mix with a fork until the mixture is moistened and crumbly. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let cool completely.
  2. Make the cheesecake filling: In a large bowl, beat room temperature cream cheese on medium speed for 2-3 minutes until creamy and smooth. Gradually add granulated sugar and Biscoff cookie butter, mixing until fully combined. Add eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed to avoid overmixing, until the batter is smooth. Gently fold in sour cream, heavy cream, and vanilla extract until you achieve a velvety consistency.
  3. Prepare for a water bath: Wrap the bottom of the springform pan tightly with aluminum foil to prevent leaks. Place the pan inside a larger baking dish and pour hot water into the larger dish until it reaches halfway up the sides of the springform pan. Carefully pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust.
  4. Bake the cheesecake: Bake at 325°F (160°C) for 60 to 70 minutes, until the edges are set but the center is still slightly jiggly. This ensures the cheesecake remains creamy inside.
  5. Cool gradually: Turn off the oven, leaving the cheesecake inside with the door slightly ajar for 1 hour to cool slowly and prevent cracking. Remove from oven and let it cool at room temperature for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight for best texture.
  6. Prepare whipped cream topping: When ready to serve, whip the chilled heavy cream in a bowl, gradually adding powdered sugar, until stiff peaks form.
  7. Assemble and garnish: Spread or pipe the whipped cream over the chilled cheesecake. Sprinkle additional Biscoff cookie crumbs on top and decorate with whole Biscoff cookies for an elegant finish. Serve chilled.

Notes

  • For a dairy-free option, substitute unsalted butter with coconut oil and heavy cream with full-fat coconut milk.
  • Neufchâtel cream cheese can be used as a lower-fat substitute for cream cheese.
  • For vegan adaptation, replace eggs with aquafaba and use vegan cookie butters and cream substitutes.
  • Be sure to wrap the springform pan well during the water bath to avoid water leaking into the cheesecake.
  • Gradual cooling inside the oven helps prevent cracks on the cheesecake surface.
  • Chilling overnight improves texture and flavor absorption.
  • Use powdered sugar in whipped cream as it stabilizes the peaks better than granulated sugar.
