How to Make Biscoff Cheesecake
Step 1: Make the Biscoff Biscuit Base
Start by crushing your Biscoff biscuits—either in a food processor for super-fine crumbs, or pop them in a zip-top bag and bash with a rolling pin for a chunkier texture. Mix with melted unsalted butter until the mixture looks like damp sand. Press it firmly and evenly into the base of your tin, using the back of a spoon or flat-bottomed glass. Pop the base in the fridge to set while you move on to the filling.
Step 2: Whip Up the Cheesecake Filling
Pour chilled double cream into a large bowl, then add the full-fat cream cheese and Biscoff spread. Using an electric mixer (or a good ol’ whisk and some elbow grease), beat until the mixture is thick, smooth, and holds its shape—think the texture of soft serve ice cream. This step is where the filling gets its signature mousse-like texture and irresistible flavor!
Step 3: Layer and Chill
Spread the cheesecake mixture evenly over your chilled biscuit base, smoothing the top with a spatula or the back of a spoon. Cover the tin with cling film and chill in the fridge for at least 3 hours, but overnight works beautifully for an extra-firm, easy-to-slice cheesecake.
Step 4: Add the Biscoff Topping
When ready to serve, melt Biscoff spread gently—either in the microwave or over very low heat on the stove until it’s pourable but not hot. With the cheesecake still in the tin, pour the warm spread over the top and carefully smooth with a spoon. Sprinkle the remaining crushed biscuits along the edge for a picture-perfect finish. Chill again for an hour (if you can wait!) for best results.
Pro Tips for Making Biscoff Cheesecake
- Chill for Clean Slices: For the neatest, sharpest slices, let your Biscoff Cheesecake chill overnight and use a warm, wiped knife between cuts.
- Whipping Cream Consistency: Stop whipping as soon as the filling firms to a soft-scoop ice cream texture—over-whipping can make it grainy.
- Gentle Touch for Topping: When pouring melted Biscoff spread over the cheesecake, let it flow naturally and gently smooth—don’t press down or the filling may shift.
- Choose the Right Tin: A springform or removable base tin makes unmolding a breeze and ensures your cheesecake’s edges stay flawless.
How to Serve Biscoff Cheesecake
Garnishes
For a bakery-worthy finish, sprinkle those reserved crushed Biscoff biscuits all around the edge or add a few big biscuit halves on top for drama! A drizzle of extra melted Biscoff spread or a dusting of cinnamon makes each slice truly irresistible.
Side Dishes
This cheesecake is rich, so pair it with something that refreshes your palate—think fresh berries, tangy raspberry coulis, or a hot cup of coffee to balance the sweetness. Even a scoop of vanilla ice cream is lovely with a chilled slice!
Creative Ways to Present
Try making Biscoff Cheesecake in individual glasses for party-perfect parfaits, pipe extra whipped cream around the edge, or serve on a cake stand with whole Biscoff biscuits tucked around the base for a showstopper centerpiece.
Make Ahead and Storage
Storing Leftovers
Keep any leftover Biscoff Cheesecake covered in the fridge, where it’ll stay perfectly fresh for up to 4 days. The biscuit base stays pleasantly firm, and the filling keeps its luscious texture!
Freezing
Biscoff Cheesecake freezes surprisingly well! Slice first, wrap each piece tightly, and freeze for up to a month. Thaw in the fridge before devouring for best texture.
Reheating
No reheating needed—just serve this cheesecake straight from the fridge, or let it sit at room temperature for 10 minutes if you prefer a softer bite.
FAQs
-
Can I make Biscoff Cheesecake in advance?
Absolutely—Biscoff Cheesecake actually tastes even better when made a day ahead, as the flavors meld and the texture firms up beautifully in the fridge. Perfect for stress-free entertaining!
-
What’s the best way to crush the Biscoff biscuits for the base?
A food processor yields super-fine, consistent crumbs, but a zip-top bag and rolling pin works well too—just make sure there are no big chunks left so your base holds together securely.
-
Can I use low-fat cream cheese for this cheesecake?
Full-fat cream cheese provides the best creamy and stable texture—low-fat versions tend to make the filling too soft and may not set as well, so stick with full-fat if you can.
-
What if I don’t have a springform tin?
While a springform or removable base tin makes unmolding easiest, you can line a regular cake tin with baking parchment overhanging the sides, then lift the cheesecake out once set—just take extra care when removing!
