Ingredients
Crust
- 1 1/2 cups Biscoff cookie crumbs
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
Filling
- 24 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup Biscoff cookie butter
- 1/4 cup caramel sauce, plus extra for topping
Garnish
- Crushed Biscoff cookies for garnish
Instructions
- Prepare the oven and pan: Preheat your oven to 325°F (163°C) and grease a 9-inch springform pan to ensure the cheesecake releases easily after baking.
- Make the crust: In a small bowl, combine the Biscoff cookie crumbs with melted unsalted butter. Press this mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form a solid crust.
- Mix the filling: In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and granulated sugar together until smooth and creamy. Add vanilla extract and then the eggs, one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition.
- Incorporate sour cream and cookie butter: Stir in the sour cream and Biscoff cookie butter until the mixture is fully blended and silky.
- Assemble cheesecake: Pour the cheesecake batter over the prepared crust in the springform pan. Drizzle 1/4 cup of caramel sauce over the batter and gently swirl it with a knife to create beautiful caramel ribbons.
- Bake: Place the cheesecake in the preheated oven and bake for 50 to 60 minutes, or until the center is almost set but still slightly jiggly to the touch.
- Cool and chill: Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Then refrigerate it for at least 4 hours or overnight to allow it to fully set and develop flavors.
- Serve: Before serving, drizzle additional caramel sauce on top and sprinkle with crushed Biscoff cookies for an added crunch and decorative finish.
Notes
- Use room-temperature cream cheese and eggs to create a smooth, creamy cheesecake without lumps.
- For an intensified Biscoff flavor, melt 2 tablespoons of cookie butter and swirl it more into the batter before baking.
- Ensure the cheesecake is well chilled before slicing to maintain clean, neat slices.
- Serve chilled for the best texture and taste experience.
