Ingredients
(Tip: You’ll find the full list of ingredients and measurements in the recipe card below.)
For the crust
200 g Biscoff cookies, finely crushed
80 g unsalted butter, melted
For the cheesecake filling
250 g cream cheese, softened
120 g Biscoff spread
100 g powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
240 ml heavy whipping cream, cold
For the topping
120 g Biscoff spread, slightly melted for drizzling
150 ml heavy whipping cream
2 tablespoons powdered sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
8 mini Biscoff cookies for garnish
Directions
Prepare the crust
Line a muffin pan with paper cupcake liners. In a bowl, mix the crushed Biscoff cookies with the melted butter until the texture resembles wet sand.
Form the crust base
Divide the mixture evenly among the cupcake liners, about 1½ tablespoons per liner. Press the crumbs firmly into the bottom using the back of a spoon or a small glass. Place the pan in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
Make the cheesecake filling
In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth and creamy. Add the Biscoff spread, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Continue mixing until well combined and silky.
Whip the cream
In a separate bowl, whip the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
Combine the filling
Gently fold the whipped cream into the Biscoff cream cheese mixture. Mix slowly until fully incorporated and light in texture.
Fill the cheesecakes
Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling evenly over the chilled crusts. Smooth the tops with a spoon.
Chill the cheesecakes
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or until fully set and firm.
Prepare the topping
Whip the heavy cream with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
Decorate
Pipe whipped cream on top of each cheesecake. Drizzle melted Biscoff spread over the whipped cream and place a mini Biscoff cookie on top.
Serve
Keep chilled until ready to serve for the best texture and flavor.
Chocolate Biscoff Cheesecakes
Add 80 g of melted milk chocolate to the cheesecake filling for a richer chocolate flavor.
Caramel Biscoff Cheesecakes
Drizzle caramel sauce over the top along with the melted Biscoff spread for an extra indulgent topping.
Nutty Biscoff Cheesecakes
Add 2 tablespoons of finely chopped toasted hazelnuts or almonds to the crust mixture for extra crunch.
Biscoff Cheesecake Cups
Instead of using cupcake liners, assemble the cheesecake layers in small dessert glasses for a beautiful layered presentation.
Extra Biscoff Swirl
Before chilling, swirl a teaspoon of melted Biscoff spread into the top of each cheesecake using a toothpick.
Storage/Reheating
Store the mini cheesecakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days. Keep them chilled to maintain their firm texture.
For longer storage, they can be frozen for up to 2 months. Place them in a freezer-safe container and thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving.
These cheesecakes are served cold and do not require reheating.
FAQs
Can I make these cheesecakes ahead of time?
Yes, these mini cheesecakes are perfect for making ahead. Prepare them a day in advance and keep them refrigerated until serving.
Can I use another type of cookie for the crust?
Yes, digestive biscuits, graham crackers, or other caramel-flavored cookies can work well if Biscoff cookies are unavailable.
How do I know when the cheesecake is fully set?
The cheesecakes should feel firm when gently touched and hold their shape when the liner is removed.
Can I freeze mini Biscoff cheesecakes?
Yes, they freeze well. Wrap them carefully and store in an airtight container. Thaw in the refrigerator before serving.
What is Biscoff spread?
Biscoff spread is a smooth, sweet spread made from caramelized cookies with a warm spiced flavor.
Can I make this recipe without whipped cream in the filling?
The whipped cream helps create a light and airy texture. Without it, the cheesecake may be much denser.
How can I make the cheesecakes look more decorative?
Use a piping bag with a star tip for the whipped cream topping and drizzle the Biscoff spread in a zigzag pattern.
Can I make one large cheesecake instead of minis?
Yes, press the crust into a small springform pan and pour the filling on top. Chill for at least 6 hours before slicing.
Can I reduce the sweetness?
You can slightly reduce the powdered sugar in the filling if you prefer a less sweet dessert.
Why is my cheesecake filling too soft?
This usually happens if the whipped cream was not beaten to stiff peaks or if the cheesecakes did not chill long enough. Refrigerating longer will help them set properly.
