I think it’s fair to say I am not the best traveler in the world. Big airports give me anxiety. I’m claustrophobic, so the bathrooms on planes are out of the question. And sitting so close to random people in a confined space? Makes me itchy, twitchy, and miserable. Especially when your row mate eats a Caesar salad for dinner and then falls asleep with their mouth agape 6 inches from your face.
It was sort of good that the fellow passed out, though. I was tired of trying to covertly read 50 Shades of Gray on my iPad without him glancing over and catching a glimpse of the naughty words. That book is something else – and that’s the last of my words on that particular subject.
Despite my utter disdain for traveling, my recent trip to Kansas City with Gold Medal Flour did have some amazing positives: fantastic people, incredible food, and I got to tour a factory and get up close and personal with a combine. More on that experience will come later this month. Just know: it was pretty awesome.
While intermittently holding my breath and attempting to breath through my mouth instead of my nose due to said sleeping man, I decided to distract myself with 15 minutes of free internet and Biscoff Cookies – thank you, Delta. I always forget how delightful these crisp, caramelly cookies are. As I munched away, happily distracted from Caesar-breath, the idea for No Bake Biscoff Cheesecakes was born.
Imagine a crisp, cookie crumb foundation topped with a deadly combination of Biscoff Spread, cream cheese and Cool Whip. While it’s an incredible simple dessert to prepare, any crowd you serve it to is going to be wowed by your creativity and Biscoff genius.
The fact that this Biscoff cheesecake isn’t baked makes it perfect for Summer. I don’t know about where you are, but it’s seven shades of Hades here in Ohio today, and just the thought of turning on my oven made me sweat a little. Cold, creamy and full of cinnamon – that is what I’m all about with this cheesecake.

Biscoff No Bake Cheesecake
Ingredients:
For the Crust
- 12 Biscoff cookies, crushed into crumbs
- 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
For the Filling
- 1 (8 ounce) package cream cheese, softened
- 2/3 cup Biscoff Spread
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- 1 (8 ounce) tub frozen whipped topping, thawed
For the Garnish
- whipped topping, optional
- Biscoff cookie crumbs, optional
Directions:
- In a medium bowl, stir together the Biscoff cookie crumbs and melted butter. Evenly divide the crumbs between your individual serving dishes and press into the bottoms of the dishes to form a crust layer.
- In a large bowl, with an electric mixer, beat the cream cheese and Biscoff Spread on medium-high speed until smooth and creamy, about 3 minutes. Add vanilla and mix to combine. Using a rubber spatula, fold in the whipped topping until well blended and no streaks remain.
- Evenly pipe or spoon the filling into individual serving dishes. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
- If desired, garnish with additional whipped topping and Biscoff cookie crumbs.
Notes:
- I have not tried this recipe using fresh whipped cream, so I cannot attest to the results.

I found the cookies at Grocery Outlet (discount grocery) for $.10 a packet and bought a case. Sadly, I have yet to find the spread anywhere in my town. I’m on the hunt now because I can’t wait to make these.
Argh, now I hate this tiny Mississippi town even more, there’s no way I’m going to find biscoff spread anywhere here! Or biscoff cookies. Oh no! What is a girl to do?!
On another note, these look fabulous!
Sara – not sure where you are in MS, but I’m in Starkville and our local Wal-Mart has BOTH the spread (by the Peanut Butter), and the cookies. I’ve had the spread and it is dangerously delicious. I bought a jar to try it and between my husband and I, it was gone within 24 hours! :) You can also go to Biscoff’s website and look-up where your nearest Biscoff retailer is. Good luck! :)
Thanks for helping Sara out!

So easy yet still pretty incredible! :-)
Someone was just telling me about this spread yesterday! My kids LOVE those cookies. I gotta find that spread and give this cheesecake a whirl. Thanks for always inspiring.
Can you tell me what are Biscoff cookies and is there something comparable? I haven’t seen those around Cleveland.

I am from Ohio too! Here is a link that will tell you which store carry the cookies and spread in your area. Have a great day.

Absolutely delectable – I’m a band new biscoff fan. As a matter of fact, I just posted “biscoffee cake” yesterday. I’d love it if you stop by for a look.
Oh I love cheesecake and Biscoff oh my, I have to try this recipe soon! Sounds like you had a great time with the exception of said sleeping man.
Okay, I sound like a complete foreigner and idiot, but I don’t know what Biscoff spread is! :-( Is it by the peanut butter?
Don’t feel bad, I had to look it up too. “Biscoff Spread is a sweet creamy spread made with Biscoff cookies (57%). Enjoy it just like a chocolate spread or peanut butter” (biscoff.com) Now I just have to figure out where to find this stuff. World Market maybe?
World Market is the only store in my area that has Biscoff spread. It’s delicious!
I think I saw Biscoff Spread in a flyer for The Fresh Market.
oooh baby, biscoff cheesecake is definitely the ultimate dessert!
What are Biscoff cookies? Can I use something else?
