🍰 Ingredients You’ll Need To Make This Moist Apple Cake

Biscoff cookies: blended into fine crumbs to form the buttery, spiced crust that sets the tone for the whole cheesecake.
Butter: melted and mixed with the cookie crumbs to create a firm, flavourful base.
Cream cheese: the star of the filling; use full-fat at room temp for a smooth, creamy texture.
Biscoff cookie spread: adds extra sweetness and that signature caramelized spice flavour throughout the filling.

Powdered sugar: sweetens the cheesecake mixture.
Heavy cream: whipped to stiff peaks, then folded in for a light, airy filling.
White sugar: helps stabilise the whipped cream and adds a touch of sweetness.
Vanilla extract: rounds out the flavours with a warm, aromatic note.
Caramel drizzle: for an indulgent finishing touch.
Extra cookie crumbs: sprinkle on top for crunch and presentation.

✔ How To Make This Biscoff No Bake Cheesecake Recipe

To make this Biscoff No Bake Cheesecake recipe, crush your Biscoff cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or blender. You’re looking for a sandy texture; no big chunks.

Next, pour in the melted butter and stir until the mixture looks like wet sand. Press this firmly into the bottom of an 8-inch round pan, spreading it out evenly to form the crust. Cover with plastic wrap and place in the fridge while you make the filling.

In a medium bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth and lump-free. Add the powdered sugar and Biscoff spread, and continue mixing until fully combined and creamy.

In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream with the vanilla and sugar on medium-high speed until stiff peaks form, about 4 minutes. Now, fold about ¾ of the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Do this gently so the filly stays light and fluffy.

Spread the cheesecake filling over the chilled crust, smoothing it out with a spatula. Top with the remaining whipped cream, then drizzle with caramel and sprinkle with crushed cookies.

Finally, cover the pan with plastic wrap and let it chill in the fridge for at least 5-6 hours, or overnight for best results. Slice with a sharp knife, serve cold, and enjoy!

🗒 Variations

Chocolate lover? Drizzle melted chocolate over the top before serving.

🗒 Substitutions

Whipped cream: feel free to buy your whipped cream if you don’t feel like making it! Alternatively, you can use cool whip in place of the whipped cream.
Lotus biscoff cookie spread: if you can’t find this specific one, any store-bought cookie spread will work.
Butter: Use a vegan butter if needed.
Cream cheese: dairy-free cream cheese alternatives will also work, though the texture may be slightly softer.

🤔 FAQ’S

Can I make this Biscoff No Bake Cheesecake in advance?

Yes! This is the perfect make-ahead dessert. It sets perfectly overnight.

Can I use low-fat cream cheese?

You can, but the texture may not be as rich or creamy.

Do I need a springform pan?

It’s ideal for easy slicing and presentation, but not required. Any 8-inch round or square dish will work; just line it with parchment if you want to lift the cheesecake out cleanly.

Why isn’t my Biscoff no bake cheesecake firming up?

Most likely it hasn’t chilled long enough. Make sure it sets in the fridge for at least 5–6 hours (overnight is best).

Can I make it gluten-free?

Yes, if you can find gluten-free cookie butter and similar spiced cookies to use in the crust.

🍴 Leftovers? Lucky you.

Store any leftover cheesecake in the fridge, covered or in an airtight container, for up to 4 days. Want to freeze it? Let the cheesecake set in the fridge for at least 6 hours first, then wrap the whole cake (or individual slices) tightly in plastic wrap followed by foil. Freeze for up to 3 months. When the craving hits, thaw slices in the fridge overnight, or let them rest on the counter for 3-4 hours before digging in.

    I am probably the worst baker on the planet and I have made this at least five times since Christmas for family and friends. Everyone LOVES it! It’s so easy, delicious and unique. I love it!

    Hands down the absolute best! Huge family favourite! It’s easy and just so delicious! I am SO glad I stumbled across it! THANK YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    1. I wondered the same thing. I think it is the same as cookie butter. I just found out that our local Walmart carries both the Biscoff’s cookies and cookie butter! Hope that helps!

  3. I’m making this for Thanksgiving this weekend. For the cookie crumb base, am I measuring 1.5 cups of cookies and then blitzing to crumbs or am I using 1.5 cups of crumbs? Thinking its tricky to measure 1.5 cups of the cookies (any idea of what that may be in grams?)

    1. I haven’t made this yet…but I’m fairly certain it is one and 1/4 cup of Biscoff crumbs. Give that a try in as long as it’s a sandy consistency I think you’re good!

      1. Hi Melissa – Yes, the amount I used for the base of the cheesecake is one and a quarter (1 1/4) cups of Biscoff cookie crumbs.
        I’m not exactly sure how many whole Biscoff cookies this took. I recommend you start by crushing about five or six cookies, and keep crushing more until you have reached the required 1 and 1/4 cups. Hope this helps. -Sam

    Wow, this turned out delicious! My first time making it and I will definitely make it again! Everyone loved it. I might try store bought whipped cream to speed up the prep and see how it tastes next time. Thanks for such a yummy recipe!
