How to Make biscoff cheesecake
Create the Cookie Crust: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Crush Biscoff cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or ziplock bag and rolling pin. Mix crushed cookies with melted butter until combined.
Press Into Pan: Firmly press the cookie mixture into the bottom of a springform pan using your fingers or a flat measuring cup for an even layer. Bake in the preheated oven for about 10 minutes until set.
Prepare Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese with granulated sugar until smooth and creamy. Add Biscoff spread and vanilla extract, mixing well until combined.
Add Whipped Cream: In another bowl, whip heavy cream until soft peaks form. Gently fold whipped cream into the cheesecake mixture to keep it airy and light.
Layer It Up!: Once mixed well, pour the filling over your cooled crust in the springform pan. Smooth out the top with a spatula and refrigerate for at least four hours or overnight for best results.
Serve With Style!: Carefully remove from springform pan once set. Top with additional whipped cream and crumbled Biscoff cookies before slicing into decadent pieces ready to impress your guests!
