How to make No-Bake Biscoff Cheesecake Cups
Ingredients:
- 100 g Lotus biscuits (or graham crackers)
- 2 tbsp melted butter (or coconut oil for a dairy-free option)
- 150 g cream cheese (softened; low-fat can be used)
- 2 tbsp icing sugar (or powdered erythritol)
- 100 ml double cream (or heavy whipping cream)
- 2 tbsp Biscoff spread (or similar speculoos spread)
- 1 tbsp melted Biscoff spread (optional for presentation)
- 100 ml whipping cream (chilled for optimal whipping)
- 1 tbsp icing sugar (for topping; or powdered erythritol)
- 2 Lotus biscuits for decoration (or crushed nuts or chocolate shavings)
Directions:
- Start by crushing the Lotus biscuits until they become fine crumbs, then mix them with melted butter to create a crumbly crust.
- Press the mixture into serving cups, compacting it tightly to form a solid base for your cheesecake.
- In a separate bowl, blend the softened cream cheese, icing sugar, and Biscoff spread until the mixture is delightfully smooth.
- In another bowl, whip the double cream until soft peaks form, then gently fold this airy cream into the cream cheese blend.
- Layer the luscious cheesecake filling into the biscuit-lined cups, and for an extra flourish, drizzle some melted Biscoff spread over the top.
- Slip these beauty cups into the refrigerator and let them chill for at least 2 hours to set perfectly.
- Just before serving, whip the chilled cream with icing sugar until stiff peaks form, then dollop generously on top of the cheesecake cups.
- Finish it all off by adorning your creation with crushed Lotus biscuits or a sprinkle of chocolate shavings.
