This velvety Biscoff cheesecake has been my trusted companion at countless dinner parties and family celebrations. The rich, caramel-like notes of Biscoff cookies paired with creamy cheesecake create pure magic on a plate. Over the years, I've refined this recipe to achieve the perfect balance of textures and flavors.

Last weekend, I made this for my neighbor's birthday gathering. The look of pure joy on everyone's faces as they took their first bite reminded me why I love sharing this recipe. Their plates were clean within minutes, and I went home with three recipe requests.

Essential Ingredients Explained

  • Biscoff Cookies: The star of our show. Look for packages that feel firm and intact - broken cookies mean they've been mishandled and might be stale
  • Full-Fat Cream Cheese: My kitchen rule: never skimp on cream cheese quality. It's the backbone of our cheesecake
  • Double Cream: Must be fresh and cold. Give the carton a gentle shake - it should feel thick
  • Biscoff Spread: The secret weapon that intensifies the caramel flavor
  • Unsalted Butter: Helps our crust hold together perfectly
  • Optional Toppings: Extra Biscoff cookies for garnish, fresh berries add a lovely contrast

Step-by-Step Instructions

Preparing Your Equipment:
Start with a deep 9-inch springform pan. Line the base with parchment paper, making sure it extends slightly up the sides. Grease the sides of the pan with a little butter.
Creating That Perfect Base:
Transform Biscoff cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or rolling pin. Melt butter and mix with crumbs until coated. Press mixture into the pan and refrigerate.
Mastering the Filling:
Beat room temperature cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add room temperature Biscoff spread. Whip cold double cream until soft peaks form, then fold into the cream cheese mixture.
Combining and Assembling:
Fold whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Pour over the chilled base and smooth with an offset spatula. Tap the pan gently to remove air bubbles.
The Final Touches:
Warm additional Biscoff spread and pour over the top. Sprinkle crushed Biscoff cookies around the border before the spread sets.

My daughter absolutely swears by Biscoff spread now. She keeps jars of it in her pantry just for this cheesecake. The warmly spiced, caramel-like flavor reminds me of cozy afternoons with a cup of coffee.

Texture Perfection

The key to achieving that silky-smooth texture lies in temperature control. Every ingredient plays its part in creating the perfect slice. Letting the cheesecake sit at room temperature for 15-20 minutes before serving brings out its full flavor profile.

Serving Suggestions

While this cheesecake stands perfectly on its own, I love adding seasonal touches. In summer, fresh raspberries add tartness. During fall, a dusting of cinnamon brings out the warm spices. For special occasions, a drizzle of dark chocolate adds decadence.

Storage Success

Keep your cheesecake covered in the fridge for up to 5 days. Use a cake dome or wrap carefully with plastic wrap, avoiding the surface. For freezing, slice first and place parchment paper between pieces to thaw individually.

Troubleshooting Corner

If your filling seems too soft, the cream may not have been whipped enough. Pop it in the freezer for 30 minutes before continuing. If the base crumbles, refrigerate it for a few extra minutes.

Ingredients

→ Topping

06 150g Biscoff spread, melted

Instructions

Step 01

Combine the crushed Biscoff biscuits with the melted butter and press into a tin. Chill in the fridge while you make the topping.

Pour the double cream into a bowl, add the cream cheese and Biscoff spread. Whisk until it's very thick - almost the consistency of ice cream. Use an electric whisk if you have one.

Remove the base from the fridge and add the cheesecake mixture, smoothing the top. Refrigerate for at least 3 hours (overnight is better).

Step 04

Gently melt the Biscoff spread in a pan (don't let it get hot). Pour over the chilled cheesecake while still in the tin. Smooth gently with the back of a spoon until covered. Sprinkle crushed biscuits around the edge.

Step 05

Return to the fridge for at least another hour for the neatest cuts.

Notes

  1. Use Philadelphia brand cream cheese for best results and drain any liquid before using
  2. Whip cream straight from the fridge until it holds its shape
  3. To remove from tin, run a warm knife around the outside
