  • 2 tablespoons Biscoff Spread (for topping) (melted)
  • 2 tablespoons Crumbled Biscoff Cookies (for garnish)

Instructions

  1. Make the crust

    Place the Biscoff cookies in a mini food processor (or a zip‑top bag) and pulse until fine crumbs. Transfer to a mixing bowl, add the melted butter, and stir until evenly combined.

    Time: PT10M

  2. Press crust into pan

    Spray the 9‑inch springform pan with cooking spray, line the bottom with parchment paper, and spray the paper lightly. Spoon the crust mixture into the pan and press firmly with the bottom of a measuring cup or a glass until an even layer forms.

    Time: PT5M

  3. Pre‑bake crust

    Bake the crust in a pre‑heated oven at 350°F for 10 minutes, then remove and set aside to cool slightly.

    Time: PT10M

    Temperature: 350°F

  4. Beat cream cheese

    In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and free of lumps.

    Time: PT5M

  5. Add sugar

    Add the granulated sugar to the cream cheese and mix until fully incorporated.

    Time: PT2M

  6. Incorporate sour cream and condensed milk

    Stir in the sour cream followed by the sweetened condensed milk, mixing just until smooth.

    Add the creamy Biscoff spread, cornstarch, vanilla extract, and salt. Mix until the mixture is uniform.

    Time: PT2M

  8. Add eggs

    Add the three room‑temperature eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed just until each egg is incorporated. Stop mixing as soon as the batter looks smooth.

    Time: PT3M

  9. Prepare water bath

    Wrap the outside of the springform pan with a double layer of aluminum foil to prevent water seeping in. Place the pan in a large baking dish and pour hot water until it reaches halfway up the side of the pan.

    Time: PT5M

    Time: PT30M

  13. Refrigerate overnight

    Cover the cheesecake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight to set fully.

    Time: PT0M

  14. Add finishing garnish
