I have always loved those little caramel biscuits you get with your cuppa at coffee shops. For the longest time I never knew what they were actually called. Now I know they’re Lotus Biscoff biscuits and, after realising this, discovered they make Biscoff Spread too. I was hooked there and then!

Seriously this stuff is so addictive! It was only natural to turn it into a Biscoff cheesecake. I mean, everything amazing gets put into a cheesecake right?! There’s Oreo cheesecake, Kinder Bueno cheesecake even Baileys cheesecake! It was definitely going to happen.

You must think I’m obsessed with no bake cheesecakes. Well I’m not gonna lie, you’d be correct in that assumption!

It’s definitely no secret that I’m a big fan of quick, make ahead dessert recipes. After all, we live such fast paced lives nowadays – who has the time to spend hours and hours in the kitchen anymore? It can be such a cruel world sometimes but at least we can make beautiful easy desserts like this Biscoff Cheesecake to get us through it all!

What you need to know

Ok let’s get down to the good stuff. Here’s everything you need to know in order to make a beautiful no bake Biscoff cheesecake of your own!

Ingredients

For the base

  • Butter – Always use unsalted in baking as it gives you control over the salt content/overall flavour.
  • Biscuits – In a Biscoff cheesecake you can only use Lotus Biscoff biscuits for the base. No substitutions or imitations!

For the filling

  • Cream – This needs to be whippable so you need to use double cream in the UK/heavy whipping cream in the US.
  • Sugar – My favourite is golden caster sugar for it’s slight caramel flavour but regular white caster sugar would work well too. (Superfine sugar in the US)
  • Cream Cheese – For a no bake cheesecake you need a stable cream cheese. I only EVER use Philadelphia Original full fat cream cheese. Other brands/light versions never set as well.
  • Vanilla – A good quality brand like Nielsen Massey will be noticed here! Supermarket brands aren’t anywhere near as flavourful.
  • Biscoff Spread – Again, no imitations or substitutions here! You need the real deal Lotus Biscoff smooth spread.

No bake Biscoff cheesecake – recipe summary

  1. Blitz Biscoff biscuits into crumbs and mix with melted butter.
  2. Press into a springform pan and chill.
  3. Whip cream to stiff peaks.
  4. Beat sugar, cream cheese and vanilla together.
  5. Fold through the whipped cream then tip the filling over the base.
  6. Heat Biscoff spread until runny then pour, haphazardly, over the top. Skewer into a pretty pattern.
  7. Chill to set then slice and serve.

Tips for making Biscoff cheesecake

  • Don’t be tempted to substitute the full fat cream cheese for a lighter version. It won’t set. I’ve done it myself (doh!) so just trust me and don’t waste your own time and money ok?
  • I whole heartedly recommend using a springform pan over a loose bottomed tin. It’s much easier to remove the cheesecake at the end. If you are going to use a loose bottom tin anyway, make sure you line the sides as well as the base.
  • Don’t switch out the Lotus Biscoff Biscuits for regular boring digestive biscuits. Using these for the base really kicks this Biscoff Cheesecake up a notch flavour wise!
  • Even though it’s CRAZY easy to make, please read through the recipe before you begin. There’s nothing worse than getting half way through a recipe and realising you need a trip to the shop or encounter some other disaster!

Ingredients

Here is what you will need to make an 8″ Biscoff Cheesecake. (Serves 8)

For the base

  • 60g (1/4 Cup) Unsalted Butter
  • 140g (5 oz) Lotus Biscoff Biscuits

For the filling

  • 150ml (2/3 Cup) Double Cream
  • 100g (1/2 Cup) Golden Caster Sugar
  • 450g (16 oz ) Philadelphia Original Cream Cheese
  • 1 tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 65g (1/3 Cup) Biscoff Spread

Essential equipment

  • 8″ (20cm) Round Springform Tin
  • Small Saucepan or Bowl
  • Food Processor
  • Large Bowl
  • Whisk
  • Electric Stand Mixer or Electric Hand Whisk
  • Spatula
  • Skewer or Sharp Knife

The base instructions

Firstly, lightly grease and line the base of the springform tin & set to one side.

Next, gently melt the butter (60g | 1/4 Cup) using either a small saucepan over a low heat or a small bowl in the microwave in 15 second intervals.

Then place the biscoff biscuits (140g | 5 oz) into the food processor and pulse until they become fine crumbs. With the machine still going, slowly pour the butter through the spout at the top until the mixture starts to clump together. You may not need all the butter.

Tip the crumb mixture into the prepared tin and press down firmly and evenly with the back of a metal spoon.

Hi, I make Biscoff cheesecake often but I also include crunchy Biscoff in the cheese mix. I use icing sugar and not castor sugar, what would the difference to taste be?

Emma

Hi Trish. I don't think changing the sugars would affect the taste. Adding crunchy Biscoff to the cheese mix will obviously change the texture, but would probably just add a more intense Biscoff flavour overall. I personally like the balance between creamy vanilla cheesecake, Biscoff biscuit and smooth Biscoff swirled through the top. You might run the risk of overpowering it if you add more. Emma x

OMG Shmazing!!! If you want to impress anyone, this cake is IT. The texture is sooo indulgent. BUT, make it the day before serving, as it is set and tastes even better.

Hi Marilyn. I've not tried freezing this myself but, after a quick Google, it sounds like you can. Might be worth giving it a go! Emma x

What do you mean by double cream on your biscoff cheesecake recipe? Thank you so much.

Emma

Sunday 10th of January 2021

Hi Beth. I’m based in the UK and we have single cream (quite runny, for serving) and double cream (thicker and whippable). I believe the US would call the double cream equivalent ‘heavy cream’? Emma x
