How to Layer Biscoff and Cheesecake Just Right
Crush Biscoff cookies into fine crumbs and blend with melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into a springform pan, creating a solid foundation for your decadent cheesecake. Bake briefly to set the base and enhance its rich flavor.

Allow the cheesecake to cool completely at room temperature. Refrigerate for several hours or overnight to develop deep, rich flavors and achieve the perfect creamy consistency.
Drizzle with caramel sauce and sprinkle crushed Biscoff cookies on top. Slice and serve chilled, revealing the decadent layers of this irresistible dessert.

FAQs
Biscoff cookies are caramelized Belgian cookies with a unique spiced flavor, originally created by Lotus Bakeries. They have a crisp texture and are often served with coffee or used in baking.
While a springform pan is ideal for easy removal, you can use a regular cake pan lined with parchment paper. However, it might be more challenging to remove the cheesecake cleanly without the removable sides.
Biscoff cookie butter is a spread made from ground Biscoff cookies, with a smooth, creamy consistency similar to peanut butter. It has the same distinctive caramel and spice flavor as the original cookies.
You’ll need a food processor or blender to crush the cookies, a mixing bowl, a springform pan, and an electric mixer to ensure a smooth cheesecake filling. A stand mixer works best but a hand mixer is fine too.

Dreamy Biscoff Caramel Cookie Butter Cheesecake Recipe
- Total Time: 1 hour 20 minutes
- Yield: 13 1x
Description
Irresistible Biscoff Caramel Cookie Butter Cheesecake blends creamy indulgence with crunchy cookie notes. Belgian-inspired dessert promises rich layers of caramel and spiced cookie goodness that will delight.
Ingredients
- 3 packs (24 oz / 675 g) cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup (250 g) Biscoff cookie butter, softened
- 2 cups (200 g) Biscoff cookie crumbs
- 1 cup (200 g) granulated sugar
- 3 large eggs
- ½ cup (115 g) unsalted butter, melted
- ½ cup (120 ml) heavy cream
- ½ cup (120 ml) caramel sauce
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- Crushed Biscoff cookies, for garnish
Instructions
- Crust Preparation: Pulverize Biscoff cookies into fine, uniform crumbs using a food processor, then blend thoroughly with melted butter to create a cohesive, sandy mixture.
- Crust Forming: Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into a springform pan, creating a compact base. Bake at 325°F (160°C) for 8-10 minutes until lightly set, then cool completely.
- Cheesecake Batter: Whip cream cheese until ultra-smooth, gradually incorporating sugar to achieve a silky texture. Gently fold in sour cream and vanilla extract, maintaining the mixture’s lightness.
- Egg Integration: Delicately introduce eggs one at a time, minimizing mixing to prevent potential surface cracking during baking.
- Cookie Butter Swirl: Infuse the batter with cookie butter, creating elegant marbled patterns by gently swirling the mixture.
- Baking Process: Pour the batter over the cooled crust, ensuring even distribution. Bake for 45-50 minutes, watching for a subtle center wobble indicating perfect doneness.
- Cooling Technique: Turn off the oven, slightly open the door, and allow the cheesecake to rest for an hour to prevent surface cracking and promote smooth settling.
- Chilling and Finishing: Refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set completely. Before serving, embellish with a caramel sauce drizzle and crushed Biscoff cookie garnish for textural contrast.
Notes
Prevent Crust Crumbling: Mix cookie crumbs and butter thoroughly to ensure a compact, sturdy base that holds together when sliced.
Control Mixing Technique: Blend cheesecake batter gently and minimally to avoid incorporating excess air, which can cause surface cracks during baking.
Manage Oven Temperature: Use a consistent, moderate temperature and allow gradual cooling to prevent sudden temperature changes that lead to cheesecake surface splitting.
Enhance Flavor Depth: Experiment with additional cookie butter swirls or caramel layers to intensify the dessert’s rich, indulgent profile and create complex taste dimensions.
