Ingredients
Main Ingredients:
- 500 g cream cheese
- 240 ml (8 fluid ounces) heavy cream
- 150 ml (5 fluid ounces) Biscoff spread
- 150 g Biscoff cookies
- 180 ml (6 fluid ounces) sour cream
Sweeteners and Binding Ingredients:
- 75 g brown sugar
- 2 eggs
- 75 g unsalted butter
Flavoring and Garnish:
- ½ teaspoon Speculoos spices
- 80 ml (2.7 fluid ounces) Biscoff spread (for glaze)
- 45 ml (1.5 fluid ounces) Biscoff spread (for whipped cream)
- 6 Biscoff cookies (for garnish)
Instructions
- Pulverize Biscoff cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or by placing them in a sealed bag and crushing with a rolling pin.
- Combine cookie crumbs with melted butter, mixing until the texture resembles damp, compact sand.
- Prepare a muffin pan by inserting paper liners, then distribute the cookie crust mixture evenly, pressing firmly to create a solid base.
- Chill the prepared crusts in the refrigerator while preparing the filling.
- Preheat the oven to a low 140°C, ensuring gentle baking for the delicate cheesecakes.
- In a large mixing bowl, thoroughly blend cream cheese and sour cream until completely smooth and lump-free.
- Incorporate melted Biscoff spread, brown sugar, and Speculoos spices, stirring carefully to maintain a uniform consistency.
- Gently fold in eggs one at a time, mixing minimally to prevent excessive air incorporation.
- Carefully distribute the cream cheese mixture over the chilled crusts, filling each liner to the appropriate level.
- Eliminate potential air bubbles by gently tapping the muffin tin against a firm surface.
- Position the pan on the lowest oven rack and bake for 20-25 minutes, watching for a slightly jiggly center.
- After baking, turn off the oven, leave the door slightly ajar, and allow cheesecakes to cool gradually for 30 minutes.
- Let the cheesecakes rest at room temperature for an additional 30 minutes before refrigerating for at least one hour.
- Warm Biscoff spread until fluid, then drizzle a thin layer over chilled cheesecakes.
- Whip cold heavy cream with cooled Biscoff spread until stiff peaks form.
- Transfer whipped cream to a piping bag with a star nozzle and create decorative swirls atop each cheesecake.
- Finish by garnishing with crushed Biscoff cookies and a half cookie delicately pressed into the cream.
Notes
- Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature to ensure smooth mixing and prevent lumps in the cheesecake batter.
- Crushing cookies finely creates a compact, even crust that holds together beautifully when serving.
- Bake cheesecakes in a low-temperature oven to prevent cracking and maintain a creamy, delicate texture.
- Cooling process is crucial: allow cheesecakes to gradually come to room temperature before refrigerating to prevent sudden temperature changes.
- Use a star nozzle for professional-looking whipped cream topping that adds elegant height and texture to each mini cheesecake.
- Optional garnishes like crushed cookies and whole Biscoff cookies create visual appeal and extra crunch.
