Ingredients
For the Crust
- 2 cups Biscoff cookies, finely crushed (about 20 cookies)
- 6 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
For the Cheesecake Filling
- 16 oz (2 packages) cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup Biscoff spread (cookie butter)
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup sour cream
For the Topping
- ¼ cup Biscoff spread, melted
- Extra crushed Biscoff cookies, for garnish
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Crust
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and line a muffin tin with paper cupcake liners.
- Place the Biscoff cookies in a food processor and pulse until you get fine crumbs. Alternatively, you can crush them in a resealable bag using a rolling pin.
- Transfer the cookie crumbs to a bowl and mix in the melted butter until the crumbs are evenly coated.
- Spoon about 1½ tablespoons of the crumb mixture into each liner and press it down firmly with the back of a spoon or the bottom of a small glass. This will form your crust.
- Bake the crust for 5 minutes, then set aside to cool while you prepare the filling.
Step 2: Make the Cheesecake Filling
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and sugar together until smooth and creamy. Use an electric mixer on medium speed to avoid lumps.
- Add the Biscoff spread, vanilla extract, and sour cream, and mix until well combined.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition. Be careful not to overmix, as this can incorporate too much air into the batter.
Step 3: Assemble and Bake
- Spoon the cheesecake filling onto the cooled crusts, filling each liner about three-quarters full.
- Tap the muffin tin gently on the counter to release any air bubbles and level the tops.
- Bake the cheesecakes for 18–20 minutes, or until the centers are set but still slightly jiggly.
- Remove from the oven and allow the cheesecakes to cool in the pan for 10 minutes, then transfer them to a wire rack to cool completely. Refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or until fully chilled.
Step 4: Add the Finishing Touches
- Once the cheesecakes are chilled, drizzle each one with melted Biscoff spread for a glossy, decadent topping. Use a spoon or a piping bag for a cleaner look.
- Sprinkle extra crushed Biscoff cookies on top for added crunch.
- Serve chilled and enjoy!
Tips for Success
- Use room-temperature ingredients: Cream cheese, eggs, and sour cream blend more smoothly when they aren’t cold. This helps ensure a silky filling.
- Customize the crust: While Biscoff cookies are the star here, you can substitute with graham crackers or digestive biscuits if needed (though we highly recommend sticking with Biscoff for the ultimate flavor).
- Make ahead: These cheesecakes are perfect for prepping in advance. They taste even better after sitting in the fridge overnight, allowing the flavors to meld together.
- Elevate the toppings: Add a dollop of whipped cream or a sprinkle of cinnamon for a festive touch.
