Directions

Make the Crust:

1. Prepare the Base:
   • Crush the Biscoff cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a zip-top bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
2. Mix and Press:
   • Combine the cookie crumbs with melted butter and mix until well combined. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form an even crust. Chill in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.

Make the Filling:

3. Whip the Cream:
   • In a bowl, beat the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form. Set aside.
4. Prepare the Cream Cheese Mixture:
   • In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Add the Biscoff cookie butter and mix until well combined.
5. Fold in the Whipped Cream:
   • Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until no streaks remain.
6. Assemble the Cheesecake:
   • Spread the filling evenly over the chilled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours or overnight to set.

Add the Topping:

7. Melt the Cookie Butter:
   • Warm the Biscoff cookie butter in the microwave for 20–30 seconds until pourable. Spread or drizzle it over the chilled cheesecake.
8. Garnish:
   • Sprinkle crushed Biscoff cookies on top or pipe whipped cream around the edges for an elegant finish.
