No-bake Biscoff cheesecake cups layered with a buttery cookie crumb crust, creamy cheesecake filling, and glossy Biscoff spread topping.

Ingredients

FOR THE BISCOFF COOKIE CRUST

  • Biscoff cookies — 250 g
  • melted butter — ½ cup

FOR THE CHEESECAKE FILLING

  • cream cheese, at room temperature — 500 g
  • chilled all-purpose cream — 500 g
  • Biscoff spread — 3 tbsp

FOR THE TOPPING

  • Additional Biscoff spread, as needed, melted until pourable

Directions

  1. Step 1: Crush the Cookies

    Place the Biscoff cookies in a food processor and pulse until they become fine crumbs. If you don't have a food processor, put the cookies in a sealed food bag and crush them with a rolling pin.

  2. Step 2: Prepare the Crust

    Transfer the cookie crumbs to a mixing bowl. Pour in the melted butter and stir until the crumbs are evenly coated and resemble damp sand.

  3. Step 3: Fill the Dessert Cups

    Divide the buttery crumbs between your individual dessert cups. Press them down firmly with the back of a spoon to create an even base. Set aside.

  4. Step 4: Beat the Cream Cheese

    Place the room-temperature cream cheese in a large mixing bowl. Beat until smooth and creamy, scraping down the sides of the bowl as needed to remove lumps.

  5. Step 5: Add the Chilled Cream

    Add the chilled all-purpose cream and beat until the mixture is smooth, thick, and creamy. The exact whipping time will depend on the cream's fat content and whipping properties. Avoid overmixing.

  6. Step 6: Add the Biscoff Spread

    Add 3 tablespoons of Biscoff spread to the cheesecake mixture. Beat until evenly incorporated and the filling has a consistent cookie butter flavor.

  7. Step 7: Pipe the Filling

    Transfer the filling into a piping bag or a sturdy food-safe bag with the corner snipped off. Pipe an even layer over the prepared cookie crusts.

  8. Step 8: Add the Biscoff Topping

    Gently warm additional Biscoff spread until it becomes pourable but not hot. Spoon a thin layer over each cheesecake cup and spread carefully to cover the filling.

  9. Step 9: Chill Until Firm

    Cover the cups and refrigerate until the cheesecake filling is set. Allow at least 4–6 hours as a starting point, then verify that the filling holds its shape before serving. The final setting time depends on the cream used and the portion size.

  10. Step 10: Serve and Enjoy

    Serve the cups chilled. For the best presentation, keep the layers visible through clear dessert cups and add the topping shortly before serving if you want a particularly glossy finish.

Tips for Perfect No-Bake Biscoff Cheesecake Cups

  • Use room-temperature cream cheese to help create a smooth filling without lumps.
  • Crush the Biscoff cookies into fine, even crumbs so the crust holds together well.
  • Mix the melted butter thoroughly with the cookie crumbs until the texture resembles damp sand.
  • Press the crust firmly into each dessert cup to create a compact, even base.
  • Keep the all-purpose cream chilled, and make sure it is suitable for whipping before adding it to the cheesecake mixture.
  • Beat the cream cheese until smooth before adding the cream, then mix carefully to avoid overbeating or creating a runny filling.
  • Warm the Biscoff spread gently until pourable, but let it cool slightly before adding it to the cheesecake cups.
  • Pipe the filling into the cups for neat, even layers and an attractive presentation.
  • Refrigerate the cups for at least 4–6 hours as a starting point, and serve only when the filling is sufficiently firm.
  • Prepare the cups ahead of time and keep them covered in the refrigerator until serving.
  • Store leftovers covered and refrigerated, and enjoy within 2–3 days for the best quality, provided the dairy ingredients remain fresh and properly stored.
