Tips & Variations

  • For extra crunch, sprinkle some chopped Biscoff cookies over the top before serving.
  • If you prefer a less sweet cheesecake, reduce the powdered sugar to 1/2 cup (60g).
  • You can substitute the Biscoff spread with peanut butter or Nutella for a different flavor.
  • Chilling the cheesecake overnight enhances the texture and flavor.

Storage

Store the cheesecake covered in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. For longer storage, freeze it for up to 1 month; thaw overnight in the refrigerator before serving. To reheat, let it come to room temperature, though this cheesecake is best enjoyed chilled.

FAQs

Can I use a regular pan instead of a springform pan?

While a springform pan makes removing the cheesecake easier, you can use a regular pan lined with parchment paper, but be careful when removing the cheesecake to avoid breaking it.

Is it necessary to chill the cheesecake for 4 hours?

Yes, chilling allows the filling to set properly and helps the flavors meld. Serving it too soon may result in a soft or runny texture.
