Ingredients

Scale

Crust

  • 1 cup Biscoff or speculoos cookie crumbs
  • 3 tbsp melted butter

Filling

  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • ¾ cup powdered sugar
  • ½ cup cookie butter (plus extra for drizzling)
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup heavy whipping cream

Garnish (Optional)

  • Extra cookies for garnish

Instructions

  1. Prepare the crust: In a small bowl, combine the cookie crumbs with melted butter until evenly mixed. Spoon a layer of this mixture into the bottom of each serving cup to form the crust.
  2. Whip the cream: In a separate bowl, whip the heavy cream until soft peaks form. Set this whipped cream aside to use later in the filling.
  3. Mix the filling base: In a large bowl, beat together the softened cream cheese, powdered sugar, cookie butter, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  4. Fold in whipped cream: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cookie butter cream cheese mixture. This will create a light, airy mousse-like texture.
  5. Layer the cups: Spoon a layer of the cheesecake filling over the cookie crumb crust in each cup. Drizzle some melted cookie butter over this layer for extra flavor.
  6. Repeat layering: Add another layer of cookie crumbs followed by the remaining cheesecake filling, finishing with a layer of the creamy filling on top.
  7. Garnish: Sprinkle extra cookie crumbs or place whole cookies on top to garnish the cheesecake cups as desired.
  8. Chill: Refrigerate the assembled cheesecake cups for at least 1 hour to allow them to set and the flavors to meld before serving.

Notes

  • For best results, use softened cream cheese to ensure a smooth mixture without lumps.
  • You can substitute Biscoff cookie crumbs with any speculoos or spiced biscuit crumbs if unavailable.
  • Adjust the amount of powdered sugar according to your desired sweetness level.
  • If you prefer a firmer crust, press the crumb mixture firmly into the cup bottoms.
  • These cheesecake cups can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
  • For an extra decorative touch, drizzle warmed cookie butter on top just before serving.
