How to Make biscoff cheesecake
Create the Crust: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). In a bowl, mix crushed biscoff cookies with melted butter until fully combined. Press this mixture firmly into a springform pan’s bottom.
Bake the Crust: Place the crust in the preheated oven and bake for about 10 minutes or until lightly golden. Let it cool completely before adding the filling.
Prepare the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy. Don’t forget to scrape down those sides!
Add Biscoff Spread and Whipped Cream: Gently fold in heavy whipping cream until well mixed. Then add biscoff spread while keeping some swirls visible for visual appeal.
Fill the Crust: Pour this dreamy filling onto your cooled crust. Spread evenly using a spatula. Refrigerate for at least four hours or overnight for best results.
Decorate and Serve!: Once set, remove from springform pan and garnish with extra whipped cream or crushed biscoff cookies on top before slicing into heavenly pieces. Enjoy!
