Ingredients

For the Biscoff Cookie Crust

  • 20 Biscoff cookies (160 g)
  • 3 tablespoons salted butter (42 g), melted

For the Biscoff Cheesecake Filling

  • 12 oz (340 g) cream cheese, softened
  • ⅓ cup (95 g) Biscoff or Speculoos cookie butter
  • ½ cup (100 g) granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 pinch salt
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature

For the Topping

  • 1–2 teaspoons Biscoff or Speculoos cookie butter, melted
  • Reserved crushed Biscoff cookie crumbs

Instructions

Step 1: Prepare the Cookie Crust

  1. Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners.
  3. Crush the Biscoff cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or rolling pin.
  4. Reserve 2 tablespoons of cookie crumbs for topping.
  5. Add the melted butter to the remaining crumbs and mix until combined.
  6. Divide the mixture evenly among the 12 muffin liners, using approximately 1 tablespoon per cup.
  7. Press the crumbs firmly into the bottom of each liner using your fingers or a small measuring cup.

Step 2: Make the Cheesecake Filling

  1. Add the softened cream cheese, cookie butter, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt to a food processor.
  2. Pulse until the mixture becomes smooth and creamy.
  3. Add the eggs and pulse just a few times until combined.
  4. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and mix briefly again. Avoid overmixing.
  5. Divide the cheesecake filling evenly among the muffin liners, using approximately 3 tablespoons per cup.

Step 3: Bake the Mini Cheesecakes

  1. Bake for 13–15 minutes, or until the edges are set and the centers are slightly jiggly.
  2. For firmer cheesecakes, bake for another minute or two until the centers are fully set.
  3. Remove the muffin pan from the oven and place it on a cooling rack.
  4. Allow the cheesecakes to cool in the pan for approximately 1 hour.

Step 4: Add the Topping

  1. Remove the slightly cooled cheesecakes from the muffin pan.
  2. Microwave the Biscoff cookie butter in 5-second intervals until melted and pourable.
  3. Drizzle the melted cookie butter over each cheesecake.
  4. Sprinkle the reserved Biscoff cookie crumbs on top.
  5. Lightly cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours until completely chilled.
  6. Serve cold and enjoy!

Notes

  • Serve chilled: These mini cheesecakes taste best when completely chilled and set.
  • Party presentation: Arrange them on a dessert platter with extra Biscoff crumbs and a little melted cookie butter.
  • Add fresh fruit: Serve with strawberries or raspberries for a refreshing contrast to the rich filling.
  • Refrigerator storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4–5 days.
  • Freezing: Freeze the cheesecakes without their toppings in a freezer-safe container for up to 2 months for best quality.
  • Thawing: Transfer frozen cheesecakes to the refrigerator and let them thaw overnight before serving.
  • Make ahead: Prepare them a day before your event so they have plenty of time to chill and develop their creamy texture.
  • Prevent cracks: Avoid overmixing the eggs and don’t overbake the cheesecakes.
  • Easy removal: Keep the paper liners on until the cheesecakes are fully chilled to make handling easier.
