Ingredients for Mini Biscoff Cheesecakes
For the Biscoff Cookie Crust
• 12 Biscoff cookies, crushed
• 2 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
• 1 tbsp granulated sugar

How To Make Mini Biscoff Cheesecakes
Step 1: Prepare the Biscoff Cookie Crust
• Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
• In a medium bowl, combine the crushed Biscoff cookies, melted butter, and sugar. Mix until well combined.
• Line a 12-cup muffin tin with paper liners. Spoon about a tablespoon of the cookie mixture into each muffin cup and press down firmly with the back of a spoon to form a crust.
• Bake for 5-7 minutes until the crust is set. Remove from the oven and let cool while you prepare the cheesecake filling.
Step 2: Prepare the Cheesecake Filling
• In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with powdered sugar and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
• In a separate bowl, whisk the heavy whipping cream until stiff peaks form.
• Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture until well combined.
• Add a pinch of salt and mix again.
Step 3: Assemble the Mini Cheesecakes
• Spoon the cheesecake filling over the cooled Biscoff crusts, filling each muffin cup to the top.
• Drop a teaspoon of Biscoff spread on top of each cheesecake and use a toothpick or a knife to swirl it into the filling.
• Refrigerate the cheesecakes for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to set.
Step 4: Serve & Enjoy
• Once set, remove the cheesecakes from the muffin tin and place them on a serving platter.
• Optional: Top with more crushed Biscoff cookies or a drizzle of Biscoff spread.
• Serve chilled and enjoy the creamy, cookie-filled deliciousness!
Tips for the Best Mini Biscoff Cheesecakes
• Crust texture – For a more textured crust, try adding a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg for extra flavor.
• No-Bake Option – You can also make this recipe without baking the crust by simply chilling the crust in the fridge before adding the cheesecake filling.
• Biscoff Spread – If you like a stronger Biscoff flavor, swirl more Biscoff spread into the cheesecake filling or drizzle it over the top.
