Ingredients You’ll Need
(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
To make this cheesecake, you only need a handful of simple ingredients:
Biscoff cookies (Lotus biscuits): Crushed into crumbs for the base and sometimes sprinkled on top.
Melted butter: Helps bind the cookie crust together.
Cream cheese: The star of the filling—rich and creamy.
Biscoff spread (smooth or crunchy): Infused into the cheesecake filling and also used as a topping.
Heavy cream or double cream: Adds lightness and fluffiness to the cheesecake.
Powdered sugar: For sweetness and smooth texture.
Vanilla extract (optional): Enhances the flavor depth.
Optional toppings include whipped cream, more crushed cookies, or even a drizzle of caramel.
Let’s Get Started
Ready to make your cheesecake? Here’s how:
1- Prepare the base
- Crush your Biscoff cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor (or place them in a zip bag and crush with a rolling pin).
- Mix the crumbs with melted butter until they resemble wet sand.
- Press firmly into the bottom of a springform pan to form an even crust. Chill in the refrigerator while you prepare the filling.
2- Make the cheesecake filling
- In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and fluffy.
- Add powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and Biscoff spread, then mix until well combined.
- In another bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form, then gently fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
3- Assemble and chill
- Pour the filling over the chilled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
- Refrigerate for at least 4–6 hours, or overnight, to allow the cheesecake to set properly.
4- Add final touches
- Warm a few tablespoons of Biscoff spread until pourable, then drizzle over the top.
- Decorate with whipped cream swirls and crushed cookies.
And just like that—you’ve created a stunning cheesecake without turning on the oven!
Servings and Pairing
This cheesecake typically serves 8–10 slices, depending on how generous you are with portions.
Pair it with:
- A hot cup of coffee or espresso for a rich, café-style treat.
- A glass of cold milk to balance the sweetness.
- Fresh berries like raspberries or strawberries for a refreshing contrast.
- It’s versatile enough to be enjoyed as a casual weeknight dessert or a centerpiece at special celebrations.
Variations
The beauty of Biscoff cheesecake is that you can get creative with it. Here are some fun twists:
- Mini cheesecakes: Use a muffin tin for individual servings. Perfect for parties!
- Swirled cheesecake: Add dollops of Biscoff spread on top before chilling and swirl with a knife for a marbled effect.
- Chocolate twist: Add a layer of melted chocolate on top of the crust before pouring in the filling.
- Frozen cheesecake: Place it in the freezer for a semi-frozen treat—ideal for hot summer days.
- Nutty crunch: Sprinkle chopped pecans or hazelnuts on top for added texture.
Storage Tips
To keep your cheesecake fresh and delicious:
- Refrigerator: Store covered in the fridge for up to 4–5 days.

- Topping care: If adding whipped cream or fresh fruit, do so just before serving to avoid sogginess.
