🍪 Ingredients:
For the Crust:
- 2 cups Biscoff cookie crumbs (about 20 cookies)
- 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
For the Cheesecake Filling:
- 16 oz (2 packages) cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- ½ cup brown sugar, packed
- ¾ cup Biscoff cookie butter (creamy)
- 2 large eggs, room temperature
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ½ cup sour cream
- Pinch of salt
For the Caramel Swirl:
- ½ cup thick caramel sauce (homemade or store-bought)
- Pinch of sea salt (optional, for salted caramel lovers)
Optional Toppings:
- Whipped cream
- Crushed Biscoff cookies
- Extra caramel drizzle
- White chocolate curls
🧑🍳 Instructions:
1. Prepare the Crust:
- Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C).
- Mix Biscoff crumbs and melted butter until well combined.
- Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Use the back of a spoon or a flat-bottom glass to make it even and compact.
- Bake for 10 minutes. Remove from oven and let cool.
2. Make the Filling:
- In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth.
- Add both sugars and beat again until creamy.
- Mix in cookie butter and blend until fully incorporated.
- Add eggs, one at a time, mixing on low. Do not overbeat.
- Add vanilla, sour cream, and a pinch of salt. Mix gently until smooth.
3. Assemble:
- Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust.
- Gently swirl caramel sauce over the top using a toothpick or butter knife. For deeper caramel flavor, layer some sauce in the middle too.
4. Bake:
- Place the pan in a water bath (wrap the springform pan in foil, then place it in a larger pan filled with hot water).
- Bake for 55–65 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.
- Turn off the oven and crack the door. Let it cool for 1 hour.
- Remove from oven, cool completely, then refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight.
5. Garnish and Serve:
- Top with whipped cream, crushed cookies, caramel drizzle, and white chocolate curls.
- Slice with a warm knife for clean cuts. Devour with joy.
📜 History of Biscoff:
Biscoff cookies originated in Belgium in the 1930s as “Speculoos,” a spiced shortcrust biscuit made during the St. Nicholas holiday. In 2007, a Belgian mom took it to the next level and created cookie butter, turning those crispy cookies into a spreadable dream. Biscoff has since become a global cult favorite—especially beloved on airplanes, in cafes, and now in decadent desserts like this cheesecake.
