- Cream Cheese: Use full-fat cream cheese for that rich and creamy texture everyone loves.
- Sugar: Granulated sugar sweetens the cheesecake filling beautifully—don’t skimp!
- Vanilla Extract: A splash elevates the flavor profile—go for pure vanilla if possible.

Let’s Make it together
Prepare Your Crust: Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Crush Biscoff cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or place them in a zip-top bag and smash away with a rolling pin until finely ground.
Melt Butter and Combine: In a small bowl, melt unsalted butter in the microwave until fully liquefied. Combine crushed cookies with melted butter until well mixed; it should resemble wet sand.
Press Into Muffin Tin: Line a muffin tin with paper liners. Evenly distribute cookie mixture among each liner and press firmly down with your fingers or a shot glass for an even layer.
Bake Your Crusts: Bake crusts in preheated oven for 8-10 minutes until slightly golden brown. Allow them to cool completely while you prepare the cheesecake filling.
Make The Cheesecake Filling: In a mixing bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth and fluffy before adding sugar and vanilla extract. Mix well until fully incorporated.
Add Heavy Cream**: Pour in heavy cream gradually while mixing on low speed until combined. Increase speed to medium-high and beat until light and fluffy peaks form.
Fill The Crusts**: Spoon or pipe cheesecake filling evenly into each cooled crust. Smooth out tops with a spatula or leave them swirled for artistic flair.
Chill Before Serving**: Refrigerate cheesecakes for at least 4 hours or overnight if you can resist temptation! This step ensures they set perfectly and enhances flavors.
Enjoy your Mini Biscoff Cheesecakes as they become an irresistible highlight at any gathering!
