Ingredients
Biscuit Base
- 300 g Biscoff biscuits
- 125 g unsalted butter, melted
Cheesecake Filling
- 200 g white chocolate
- 500 g full-fat cream cheese (room temperature)
- 75 g icing sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 300 ml double cream
- 200 g Biscoff spread
Decoration
- 50 g Biscoff spread, melted
- 150 ml double cream
- 2 tbsp icing sugar
- White chocolate shavings
- Biscoff biscuits
Instructions
Make the Biscuit Base
- Crush the Biscuits: Blitz the Biscoff biscuits in a food processor until they form fine crumbs. Alternatively, place the biscuits in a zip-top bag and crush them with a rolling pin.
- Combine with Butter: Mix the melted butter into the biscuit crumbs until fully combined.
- Press Into Tin: Firmly press the mixture into the base of a 20cm/8-inch deep springform tin, creating an even layer. Chill in the fridge while you prepare the filling.
Prepare the Cheesecake Filling
- Melt the White Chocolate: Melt the white chocolate in the microwave in 20-second bursts, stirring in between, until smooth. Allow it to cool for 10 minutes.
- Whisk the Cream Cheese Mixture: In a large bowl, whisk together the cream cheese, icing sugar, and vanilla extract until smooth and creamy.
- Incorporate the Chocolate: Add the cooled white chocolate to the cream cheese mixture and whisk until fully combined.
- Add the Double Cream: Whisk in the double cream until the mixture thickens. For best results, whisk the cream separately to soft peaks and then fold it into the cream cheese mixture.
- Swirl in Biscoff Spread: Briefly fold the Biscoff spread into the cheesecake mixture using a spatula, creating a swirl effect.
Assemble the Cheesecake
- Pour the Filling: Spread the cheesecake filling onto the prepared biscuit base, ensuring the mixture reaches the edges of the tin to avoid gaps.
- Set in the Fridge: Cover the tin and refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 6–8 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow it to fully set.
Decorate the Cheesecake
-
- Remove from Tin: Carefully remove the set cheesecake from the springform tin. Place it on a serving plate.
- Drizzle with Biscoff Spread: Melt the Biscoff spread and drizzle it over the top of the cheesecake in a decorative pattern.
- Whip the Cream: Whisk together the double cream and icing sugar to soft peaks. Pipe the cream onto the cheesecake using a star-shaped nozzle for a professional finish.
- Add Finishing Touches: Sprinkle white chocolate shavings over the cheesecake and garnish with whole or crushed Biscoff biscuits.
Notes
- Room Temperature Ingredients: Ensure the cream cheese is at room temperature for a smooth filling.
- Chill Time: Don’t rush the chilling process—overnight is best for a firm cheesecake.
- Decorating Ease: Use a squeeze bottle for precise drizzling of the melted Biscoff spread.
- Neat Slices: Dip your knife in hot water and wipe it clean between cuts for neat slices.
