Ingredients
- 20 cookies Biscoff cookies (or similar speculoos)
- 3 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
- 8 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup + 2 tbsp cookie butter (Biscoff spread), divided
- 1/3 cup powdered sugar
- 1 tsp pure vanilla extract
- 3/4 cup heavy whipping cream, cold
- 1/8 tsp pinch of salt
- for topping extra crushed cookies and cookie butter drizzle
Instructions
- 1Crush 16 of the Biscoff cookies into fine crumbs using a food processor or a zip-top bag and rolling pin. Stir the crumbs with the melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand and holds together when pinched.
- 2Divide the buttered crumbs evenly among four 8-ounce jars or glasses. Press firmly into an even base layer with the back of a spoon; refrigerate while you make the filling.
- 3In a large bowl beat the softened cream cheese with a hand mixer on medium speed for 1 minute until completely smooth and free of lumps.
- 4Add cookie butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and salt; beat another 1–2 minutes until fluffy and fully combined, scraping the bowl halfway.
- 5In a separate chilled bowl whip the cold heavy cream to stiff peaks, about 2–3 minutes. Gently fold the whipped cream into the cookie-butter mixture in two additions until no white streaks remain and the filling is light.
- 6Spoon or pipe the cheesecake filling over the crusts, dividing evenly and smoothing the tops. Tap jars lightly on the counter to settle.
- 7Warm the remaining cookie butter in the microwave 10–15 seconds until pourable. Drizzle over each cup and swirl lightly with a toothpick if desired.
- 8Crush the remaining cookies and sprinkle on top. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours (or overnight) so the filling firms to a sliceable mousse texture.
- 9Serve cold straight from the fridge. The cups keep covered in the refrigerator up to 3 days.
