Step 2. Press the mixture into the bottom and up the sides of the springform pan. You can use the bottom of a glass to make sure the mixture is pressed down into the pan.  Place the crust in a freezer while you prepare the filling.

Pro Tips

  • Softened cream cheese. Make sure the cream cheese is softened before mixing or it will not mix smoothly. If you are in a hurry, you can cut the cream cheese into smaller pieces and leave it at room temperature to help it soften quicker.
  • Crust. You can substitute a graham cracker crust in this recipe. Store brand is just fine if you are short on time. Another option is to use shortbread cookies to make the crust.
  • Slicing the cheesecake. For nice clean slices, use a sharp knife dipped in water. Make sure to wipe the knife clean after each cut to ensure each slice looks great.
  • Chill the cheesecake filling. It’s important to allow this to chill for at least 3-4 hours but overnight is best.

FAQs

How to Assemble Cookie Butter Cheesecake?

It is pretty easy to assemble this cheesecake. The key is making sure the layers have set. The crust needs to go in the freezer while the filling is being made.

Next, the filling goes in the frozen crust. Everything is refrigerated for several hours but overnight is best to allow it to set. The last step of assembly is the topping.

Drizzle the melted cookie butter all over the cheesecake. We like to add crushed cookies and whipped cream.

It is a few steps but they are very simple. The trick is giving each layer sufficient time to set before adding the next. This will help it to look great and slice easily.

What Is cookie butter cheesecake?

It starts with a classic cheesecake filling but with the addition of cookie butter. The crust is made of biscoff cookies instead of graham crackers for a sweet and tasty dessert.
The topping is a decadent combination of cookie butter, whipped cream and biscoff cookies. Everything comes together for the best No Bake Biscoff Cheesecake.

What is cookie butter?

It is a tasty spread that has a consistency similar to peanut butter. Cookie butter is made from speculoos cookies.

These cookies are similar to gingerbread but taste like the buttery flavor of shortbread cookies.

I usually purchase cookie butter at Trader Joe’s. You can typically find a creamy version and crunchy version of cookie butter. While they are both delicious. the creamy version is best for this cheesecake recipe.

Can you Freeze this Cheesecake?

Yes, this cheesecake can be frozen. Cover in plastic wrap and place inside a storage container or bag that is appropriate for the freezer.

Freeze up to one month. When ready to serve, allow to thaw in the fridge overnight.
