Notes

  • If you’re going to make this, decide to go out with a bang. I.e., none of this low-fat business. For optimal results, this cheesecake should be created with full-fat products.
  • You can find two versions of Biscoff spread in the shops: smooth and crunchy. In this recipe, we used the smooth version, but readers have told us that opting for crunchy takes it to a whole other level!
  • Store leftovers, covered, in the fridge for up to 4 days.
  • This cheesecake freezes beautifully in an airtight container for up to 3 months.  Freeze whole or chill completely and slice before freezing.
  • The cream cheese NEEDS to be at room temperature to properly mix together with the Biscoff spread. 
  • To make the cinnamon whipped topping:  Add 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon to 1 cup cold double cream in a large bowl.  Whip together with electric beaters until soft peaks begin to form. Slowly add granulated sugar, 1 teaspoon at a time, until stiff peaks form.  Put the whipped topping in a piping bag to add some decorative topping to your cheesecake.
  • I used Wilton piping tip 1M for the whipped cream on top.  
  • Slice with a warmed knife for easy serving.
  • I had some leftover topping so I added it to pancakes and it was so good!
