⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ - Sammy
At first, I didn’t get the hype around Biscoff - Lotus biscuits just felt like just another hotel cookie. But after testing this no-bake cheesecake recipe multiple times, I finally nailed the perfect balance of creamy, smooth filling with that gorgeous caramelized Biscoff flavor.
What makes this recipe special is how simple and foolproof it is. It’s free of complicated steps or long baking; just easy ingredients and a method that works. No-bake cheesecakes are always a winner in my books because they come together so quickly and easily but make for wonderful desserts. Some of my other favorites include my Cookie Dough Cheesecake and my Millionaire's Cheesecake.
If you’re a Biscoff lover, or want to learn to love it, this cheesecake is a great place to start. I’ve perfected it so you can enjoy a super smooth and creamy, delightful Biscoff cheesecake that will completely satisfy those guilty pleasure cravings!

Why You'll Love This Biscoff Cheesecake Recipe
- Tested to perfection, so you get a creamy, sliceable cheesecake every time.
- Each element is loaded with rich Biscoff flavor.
- Quick and no-bake, perfect for last-minute desserts or celebrations!
Ingredients for Biscoff Cheesecake
Below is a list of everything you’ll need to make your own sumptuous Biscoff Cheesecake!
- Lotus Biscoff Cookies - For the crumb crust, these little speculoos cookies are everywhere; you should be able to find them at most grocery stores.
- Butter - Use unsalted butter.
- Cream Cheese - Use full-fat cream cheese for this recipe and not the spreadable kind. It should be room temperature. Drain any liquid from the packaging before adding to the cheesecake.
- Heavy Cream - The cream MUST be at least 36% fat or the cheesecake will not set. This means heavy cream, heavy whipping cream or double cream. If you can't find cream above 36%, you can add some gelatin to the cheesecake to help it set. See the section below for how to add gelatin to a cheesecake.
- Lotus Biscoff Spread - This is smooth Biscoff spread, which you can find in most grocery stores. If you can't find specifically Lotus Biscoff, you can use another brand of cookie butter instead - they are all made with speculoos cookies and will give the same flavor.
- Powdered Sugar - This will dissolve easily to add some sweetness and stability to the creamy Biscoff cheesecake filling.
- Vanilla - Use vanilla extract or vanilla bean paste.
See recipe card for quantities.
Recommended Equipment
- Cake Pan - A loose-bottomed cake pan or a springform pan, ideally with tall sides.
- Mixer - The cheesecake filling can be whipped by hand, but is easier with a stand mixer or an electric mixer.
- Spatula - Or a paddle knife to smooth out the cheesecake filling.
- Piping Bag - To create the Biscoff drips down the side of the cheesecake. You can also use a plastic squirt bottle, or a spoon.
How to Make Biscoff Cheesecake
How to Make the Biscoff Cookie Crust
The Biscoff cheesecake crust is super easy to make and only has two ingredients. It's just like a classic graham cracker crust, but with lotus cookies instead!
Make Crumb
Crush the Lotus biscuits using a food processor until they turn to fine crumbs. Alternatively, put the biscuits in a plastic bag and crush with a rolling pin.
Melt Butter
Microwave the butter in 30-second bursts until melted. Pour the melted butter into your cookie crumbs.
Coat Crumb
Mix together until the crumbs are completely coated.
You should be able to squeeze the mixture with your fingers and it should hold its shape.
Form Base
Tip the mixture into the bottom of the springform pan and press it down with your hands to form an even layer, keeping the sides of the pan clean.
Use the bottom of a glass to create a tight, even biscuit base.
How to Make the Biscoff Cheesecake Filling
This is really the ultimate Biscoff cheesecake, it has an entire jar of cookie butter spread in the cheesecake filling - I think that says it all!
Whip Cream
Pour the heavy cream into a bowl, and whip until it reaches stiff peaks. Set aside.
Beat Batter
In a separate large bowl, add in the cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla, and Biscoff spread. Beat together until smooth and well combined.
Add a Little Cream
Scoop a dollop of the whipped cream and stir it into the cream cheese mixture to loosen it up a little.
Fold in Cream
Gradually fold in the remaining whipped cream gently until it is completely incorporated, scraping down the sides as you go.
Smooth over Crust
Pour the Biscoff cheesecake batter into the prepared pan on top of the crust, and smooth it out with a spatula.
Place the cheesecake into the fridge and leave to set overnight (or for at least eight hours).
How to Decorate the Biscoff Cheesecake
Decorating your Biscoff cheesecake is optional, but here's a rundown of how I did it. I opted for a melted Biscoff drip (arguably the best part of this Lotus Biscoff cheesecake recipe!)
Drip and Spread
Carefully remove the cheesecake from the pan. See the section below for a detailed tutorial on this. Melt some Biscoff/cookie butter in the microwave for 15-20 seconds.
Gently pipe some of the melted Biscoff around the edge of the cheesecake, letting it run down the side to create a drip. Pour the remaining mixture all over the top of the cheesecake and spread it out smoothly.
Final Touches
If you'd like some whipped cream rosettes as I had in the pictures, you can whip up a little more cream and pipe it on top.
For a finishing touch, break up a Biscoff cookie with your fingers and sprinkle the crumbs on top of the whipped cream swirls.

How to Get No-Bake Cheesecake Out of the Pan
Use a pan with a removable bottom - a loose-bottomed pan or a springform pan both work well. You don’t need to grease it, but a parchment paper circle can help with transferring.
To release the cheesecake, let it sit at room temperature for 5 minutes. Then, gently push up the base (or release the clasp). If it resists, don’t force it. Try wrapping the pan with a warm, damp dish towel for a minute, or lightly heat the outside with a blowtorch (for metal pans only). Once released, you can smooth the sides with a palette knife if you’d like.
Adding Gelatin to a No-Bake Cheesecake
To get that perfect, creamy no-bake cheesecake that holds its shape, you’ll need cream with at least 36% fat. If your cream doesn’t meet the mark, gelatin is your best friend for getting it to set.
Use 3-4 sheets of gelatin or 1 tbsp powdered gelatin - adjust up or down depending on how much extra help your cream needs. Bloom gelatin in water for 10 minutes. For sheets, soak and then microwave for 30 seconds; for powder, bloom and then microwave and stir until smooth. Let it cool slightly while you whip up the rest of the batter.
Add the gelatin to the cheesecake mixture right after mixing in the cream cheese, powdered sugar, and Biscoff, and before folding in the whipped cream. It’s a simple trick, but it makes sure your cheesecake is as dreamy and sliceable as it should be!
Biscoff Cheesecake Variations
This Biscoff cheesecake recipe is already golden in my opinion. But if you wanted to switch it up a bit, here are some ideas for you:
Adding other spreads - You could substitute some of the Biscoff cookie butter for some Nutella or peanut butter for a more interesting flavor profile.
Crunchy Biscoff - This recipe uses smooth Biscoff spread, but you can also use crunchy cookie butter if you prefer, it just won't have quite such a smooth finish.
Mini Biscoff Cheesecakes - Instead of one big cheesecake you could put these into mini little pans to make tiny Biscoff cheesecakes - super cute!
Gingerbread Biscoff Cheesecake - For a Christmassy take on this recipe, try adding some gingerbread cookies into the mix. Add them to the base, then add some ground ginger to the cheesecake filling and crumble some more gingerbread crumbs on top.
Serving Suggestions for Biscoff Cheesecake
Slice your Biscoff Cheesecake once it is completely set and use a warm knife to make super clean cuts.
Though this Biscoff Cheesecake is already pretty spectactular on its own, here are some ideas for how to serve it to make it even more special:
Whipped cream rosettes: For extra decoration, pipe some chantilly cream (link) rosettes on top of each slice.
Biscoff Crumbs: Crush up some lotus biscuits and crumble them over the top of the cheesecake for extra crunch.
Biscoff Sauce: Melt some cookie butter and serve in individual sauce pots so your guests can pour even more warm biscoff over their slice of cheesecake. Interactive and tasty!
How to Store No Bake Biscoff Cheesecake
Of course, you will need to store your Biscoff cheesecake in the fridge. If possible, it's best to keep it in an airtight container in the fridge, but if that's not possible you can cover it in plastic wrap instead. It should be good like this for up to 5 days.
Biscoff No Bake Cheesecake FAQS
If you have a question about this recipe that isn't answered here, feel free to write it in the comment section, and I will get back to you as soon as I can.
If you're unable to get access to the original spread, it's absolutely fine to use dupes that mimic Biscoff's, or other cookie butter spreads - they are all made with speculoos cookies which give the same flavor.
This is really important to know as it determines whether the cheesecake sets properly or not. Beat just until stiff peaks form - the cream should be thick and stand up straight when you lift the whisk, holding its shape firmly. Further whisking for too long could result in lumpy cream.
If your cheesecake doesn't hold it's shape properly, it may collapse when you cut it and won’t have that lovely, creamy texture we’re after. This could happen if the cream hasn't been whipped enough. Be sure to beat until you get stiff peaks - the cream should be thick and hold its shape firmly, forming peaks that stand up straight when you lift the beater. It could also be caused by not using the right kind of cream or cream cheese. Your heavy cream must be at least 36% fat content, and your cream cheese needs to be full-fat (not the spreadable kind).
Lumps that won’t disappear might mean the cream cheese wasn’t at room temperature, making it harder to blend smoothly with the other ingredients. Or, if the cream was over-whipped, it can make it tricky to fold everything together evenly.

It really helps and I love hearing all your feedback!

Hi.
Will it work with 35% heavy cream?
Jules Grasekamp
Hi Nancy,
It may not be quite as firm with 35% heavy cream but it should still work and hold its shape.
If you are worried you can add some gelatine - I have included instructions in the post for this. But I think it will be alright with 35%
Hope you love it!
Jules
Susan
what size springform pan does this recipe use?
Jules Grasekamp
I use a deep 8-inch pan, but it would also work in a 9-inch 🙂
