Ingredients
Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 12 ounces (340 grams) cream cheese
- 4 ounces (113 grams) Biscoff cookies
- 1 egg plus 1 egg yolk
- 12 cup (120 milliliters) cookie butter
Sweeteners and Flavoring:
- 38 cup (75 grams) sugar
- 1 teaspoon brown sugar
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 14 cup (60 milliliters) sour cream
Additional Ingredients:
- 3 tablespoons (45 grams) butter, melted
- 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) heavy cream
- 18 teaspoon salt
- 14 cup (60 milliliters) cookie butter for topping
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 375F and line a muffin pan with cupcake liners for optimal preparation.
- Pulverize cookies, sugar, and melted butter in a food processor until the mixture becomes a uniform crumbly texture.
- Gently press the cookie mixture into each liner, creating an even base, then bake for 5 minutes to set the crust.
- Lower the oven temperature to 325F, preparing for the filling stage.
- Whisk cream cheese, cookie butter, sugar, sour cream, heavy cream, vanilla, salt, egg, and egg yolk in a large bowl until the mixture reaches a silky, lump-free consistency.
- Carefully distribute the filling evenly across the pre-baked crusts, ensuring no spillage.
- Slide the muffin pan into the oven and bake for 15 minutes, watching for subtle golden edges.
- Remove from oven and allow gradual cooling: first 10 minutes with the door closed, then 10 minutes with the door slightly ajar to prevent cracking.
- Transfer the cheesecakes to the refrigerator and chill for 2 hours to set completely.
- Before serving, drizzle warm cookie butter over each cheesecake for a decadent finishing touch.
Notes
- Choose a non-stick muffin pan to prevent treats from sticking and ensure easy removal.
- Crush cookies finely for a smoother, more consistent crust that binds perfectly with melted butter.
- Avoid overmixing the filling to prevent air bubbles and maintain a creamy, silky texture.
- Customize the recipe by using gluten-free cookies for a celiac-friendly version or swapping cookie butter with alternative spreads for different flavor profiles.
