Ingredients You’ll Need for 5-Ingredient Biscoff Cheesecake Bars
- 220g Lotus Biscuits
- 60g Unsalted Butter (melted)
- 500g Philadelphia cream cheese (softened)
- 150g Biscoff Spread
- 100g Icing Sugar
- 200g Biscoff Spread (melted, for the topping)
Let’s Make It Together
-
Prepare the Base: Start by finely crushing the Lotus Biscuits and pouring them into a bowl. Set aside 2 tablespoons for later. Combine the crushed biscuits with the melted unsalted butter, mixing until everything is well combined. Pour the mixture into an 8×8 tin and press it down firmly to form a solid base.
-
Make the Cheesecake Filling: In a separate bowl, add the softened Philadelphia cream cheese, Biscoff spread, and icing sugar. Whisk until the mixture is fully combined and creamy—this should take about 2-3 minutes of whisking.
-
Assemble and Chill: Spoon the cheesecake mixture onto your prepared base, smoothing it out with a spatula. Drizzle the melted Biscoff spread over the top, then pop the whole thing into the refrigerator until set, which usually takes about 3-4 hours.
Delicious Variations to Try
-
Chocolate Delight: Add some melted chocolate to your cheesecake mixture for an indulgent twist. Chocolate and Biscoff are a match made in heaven!
-
Fruit Toppings: Fresh berries or caramelized apples on top can enhance the creamy richness with a fruity, zesty touch.
-
Nutty Crunch: Sprinkle chopped hazelnuts or almonds on top for a delightful contrast in texture.
-
Spice It Up: Add a pinch of cinnamon or nutmeg into the filling for a warm, spiced flavor that’s perfect for the Holiday season.
