Total Time 20 minutes
Servings 8 servings

Ingredients
  

  • For the base:
  • 200 g Lotus Biscoff biscuits (about 20–22 cookies)
  • 75 g unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 tablespoon brown sugar (optional, for extra caramel notes)
  • Pinch of fine salt
  • For the filling:
  • 300 g full-fat cream cheese, softened
  • 250 ml cold heavy cream (or double cream)
  • 100 g powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 100 g Lotus Biscoff spread (smooth)
  • 1–2 teaspoons lemon juice (optional, for brightness)
  • For the topping:
  • 120 g Lotus Biscoff spread (warmed to pourable)
  • Extra crushed Biscoff biscuits, to garnish
  • Pinch of flaky sea salt (optional)
  • Equipment: 8–10 small dessert cups or jars, mixing bowls, hand mixer or whisk, spatula

Instructions
 

  • Make the crumb base: Crush the Biscoff biscuits into fine crumbs. Stir in melted butter, brown sugar, and salt until the mixture looks like wet sand.
  • Pack the base: Spoon crumbs into each cup and press down firmly with the back of a spoon. Aim for an even, compact layer.
  • Whip the cream: In a cold bowl, whip the heavy cream to medium peaks. Do not overwhip.
  • Beat the cream cheese: In another bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth. Mix in 100 g Biscoff spread and lemon juice if using.
  • Fold together: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture in two additions until creamy and uniform.
  • Fill the cups: Pipe or spoon the cheesecake mixture over the crumb base, leaving room for topping. Smooth the surface.
  • Chill: Cover and refrigerate for at least 2–3 hours, or until set. Overnight gives the best texture.
  • Add the topping: Warm the remaining Biscoff spread until just pourable (microwave 10–15 seconds). Pour a thin layer over each cup. Tilt gently to spread.
  • Finish and serve: Chill 15–20 more minutes to set the topping. Garnish with crushed biscuits and a pinch of flaky salt if you like.
