5 Ingredient No Bake Biscoff Cheesecake (Easy Recipe) - Basics with Bails (1)

So you might be wondering, what the heck is lotus biscoff? Lotus Biscoff is a biscuit with a surprisingly crunchy bite and a unique taste that is loved all over the world.

Lotus is known for its speculoos biscuits and biscuit-based products. I have tried the cookies and well as the spread and both were truly life changing.

So I thought, why not combine both and create a lotus biscoff cheesecake. It has a crunchy Biscoff base, and a creamy cream cheese & Biscoff filling.

Once fully combined, add in the icing sugar and combine over low speed, making sure to scrape the sides of the pan.Put the cheesecake filling onto the chilled crust and smooth down with a spatula.

HOW TO STORE THIS DECADENT CHEESECAKE

This cookie butter cheesecake can be stored in the fridge for up to 5 days, but I highly doubt it will last that long! For best results, store it in an airtight container or tightly wrap the springform pan in plastic wrap when storing.

CAN I FREEZE THE NO-BAKE LOTUS CHEESECAKE?

Yes you can, wrap it up in plastic wrap, and aluminum foil to preserve it. It can stay frozen for up to 2 months, but is best eaten freshly made.

I kid you not, the no bake cheesecake filling is arguably better frozen than at room temperature. This is the perfect dessert for hot summer days when you don’t feel like turning the oven on.
