Mini Biscoff Cheesecake Ingredients

For the Crust
Biscoff Cookie Crumbs – Provide a rich, buttery base; crushed graham crackers can substitute if needed.
Granulated Sugar – Adds sweetness to balance the crust; consider reducing or using a sugar alternative.
Salted Butter – Binds the crust together while enhancing flavor; unsalted butter can be used with a pinch of salt.

For the Cheesecake Filling
Cream Cheese – Delivers the creamy texture necessary for the filling; using light cream cheese may alter the creaminess.
Powdered Sugar – Sweetens the filling for a smooth consistency; can be replaced with a sugar alternative.
Biscoff Spread (Cookie Butter) – The star flavor component; swapping with nut butters will change the flavor profile.
Vanilla Extract – Adds depth; opt for pure vanilla for the best results.
Heavy Cream – Provides richness and stability to the filling; half-and-half can be used for a lighter texture but will differ.

For the Topping
Heavy Cream, Powdered Sugar, Vanilla Extract – Combine to create a light, sweet whipped cream topping.
Halved Biscoff Cookies – Garnishes with a delightful crunch; can be omitted or replaced with chocolate shavings.

Now that you have all the essential Mini Biscoff Cheesecake ingredients, you’re just a few steps away from creating these delightful, no-bake treats!

Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Mini Biscoff Cheesecakes

Step 1: Prepare the Crust
Begin by mixing 1 cup of Biscoff cookie crumbs with 2 tablespoons of granulated sugar and 4 tablespoons of melted salted butter in a medium bowl. The mixture should resemble wet sand. Press this blend firmly into the bottom of mini cheesecake pans, ensuring an even crust about half an inch thick. Set aside in the fridge while you make the filling.

Step 2: Make Cheesecake Filling
In a large mixing bowl, beat 12 ounces of softened cream cheese with 1 cup of powdered sugar, 1/2 cup of Biscoff spread, and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy, about 2-3 minutes. Gradually add 1 cup of heavy cream, continuing to whip until thick and fluffy, which should take another 3-4 minutes. Aim for a light and airy texture, perfect for your Mini Biscoff Cheesecakes.

Step 3: Assemble Cheesecakes
Spoon the cheesecake filling into the prepared crusts, generously overfilling them to create a delightful dome shape. Use a spatula to smooth the top of each cheesecake. Once filled, place the cheesecakes in the refrigerator and let them chill for at least 12 hours or preferably overnight, allowing the filling to firm up beautifully.

Step 4: Make Whipped Cream
In a clean bowl, whip 1 cup of heavy cream with 2 tablespoons of powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Beat until medium-stiff peaks form, which should take about 5-7 minutes. This light, fluffy whipped cream will top your cheesecakes and add delightful sweetness to the rich Mini Biscoff Cheesecakes.

Step 5: Add Toppings
Before serving, melt an additional 1/4 cup of Biscoff spread in the microwave for about 20 seconds until pourable. Drizzle the melted Biscoff generously over the chilled cheesecakes, then finish with a sprinkle of cookie crumbs and a halved Biscoff cookie on each one. This finishing touch enhances both the visual appeal and rich flavor of your delightful dessert.

Expert Tips for Mini Biscoff Cheesecakes

  • Room Temperature Cream Cheese: Start with cream cheese at room temperature for a smooth and lump-free filling, ensuring your Mini Biscoff Cheesecakes turn out perfectly creamy.
  • Chill Time Matters: Be patient and allow the cheesecakes to chill for at least 12 hours; this is key for the filling to set properly and achieve the desired texture.
  • Whip for Fluffiness: When whipping the heavy cream for your topping, be cautious not to overbeat, as this can lead to a grainy texture instead of a light, fluffy whipped cream.
  • Piping Perfection: Use a Wilton 1M piping tip for elegant swirls of whipped cream on top of each cheesecake, giving them a professional look that’s sure to impress your guests.
  • Taste as You Go: Don’t hesitate to taste your cheesecake filling before assembling to adjust sweetness or make flavor tweaks, ensuring it fits your palate perfectly.

Mini Biscoff Cheesecakes Recipe FAQs

What type of Biscoff cookie crumbs should I use?
You should look for the traditional Biscoff cookie crumbs, which provide a rich and distinctive flavor perfect for the crust. If you can’t find them, crushed graham crackers make a suitable substitute, but they will give a slightly different taste. Just ensure whatever you choose is finely crushed to create a cohesive base.

How should I store leftover Mini Biscoff Cheesecakes?
Store any leftover Mini Biscoff Cheesecakes in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. This will keep them fresh and maintain their delightful creamy texture. If you happen to have them longer than that, freezing is a great option!

Can I freeze Mini Biscoff Cheesecakes?

Individually wrap each cheesecake in plastic wrap, then place them in a freezer-safe container to protect against freezer burn. When you’re ready to enjoy, simply transfer them to the refrigerator to thaw overnight. They’ll taste just as delicious as when you first made them.

What if my cheesecake filling is too runny?
If your cheesecake filling turns out a bit too runny, don’t worry! This could happen if the heavy cream wasn’t whipped enough. Try putting it back in the mixer and whip it more until you see medium-stiff peaks. Also, make sure your cream cheese is softened to room temperature before mixing. If you need a quick fix, you could consider adding a little more powdered sugar to help thicken it too.

Are Mini Biscoff Cheesecakes suitable for kids or those with allergies?
These cheesecakes are generally kid-friendly, but be cautious about allergies! They contain dairy and could be a concern for those with lactose intolerance or dairy allergies. If you’re preparing them for children with allergies, you can substitute cream cheese with a non-dairy alternative and use nut-free spreads if nut allergies are a concern. Always check ingredient labels for allergens and adjust as necessary.

How far in advance can I prepare Mini Biscoff Cheesecakes?
