Staying on plan shouldn’t have to mean giving up desserts. Creamy cheesecake is one of our favourite ways to end a meal, so we can’t wait for you to try this one!

It seems like Biscoff is everywhere right now! We’ve seen this trendy flavour used in all kinds of desserts and sweet treats and we just knew we had to try it in a cheesecake. 

The delicious spread is flavoured with the Lotus Biscoff biscuits you might have seen in the supermarket. 

They have a buttery, caramelised flavour with hints of subtle spice, and are often served with a cup of coffee. 

Both the biscuits and spread are brilliant for baking! They add so much flavour to this baked cheesecake that you won’t even notice that we’ve swapped some of the ingredients for reduced fat options to keep the recipe slimming friendly. 

This is a real showstopper of a dessert and perfect for special occasions!

If you’re cooking for people with allergies, be extra careful when checking ingredients and preparing food!

Different cheese.
So I ran out of cream cheese and had to use a mix of primula and quark, it was still delicious so I think if I try it with Philadelphia next time it will be phenomenal.

I made this last night and it was lovely, came out perfectly but the cream cheese was very strong. How can I make it taste less cheesy? I didn’t use philly, it was aldis own brand.

    SharonTuesday 8th November 2022

    Hi Holly, we’re pleased to hear your Biscoff Cheeesecake worked perfectly. We tested this recipe using Philadelphia Lightest which contains 3 % fat, but any of the lightest brands of cream cheese should work well. Flavours may vary a little from brand to brand which could explain the stronger cheesy flavour you described.

Could this be done in an air fryer?

Reply

    HollyMonday 24th October 2022

    Hey Nicky, we don’t recommend cooking this recipe in the air-fryer. We have THIS article which you may find helpful for converting some of our other recipes to the air-fryer which includes a temperature and timings guide, hope that helps!

Could you use something else instead of eggs?

Reply

    HollyTuesday 11th October 2022

    Hey Karen, the eggs are essential in this cheesecake. I’ve just had a look at our other recipes and this Millionaire’s Cheesecake doesn’t use eggs so you could adapt that recipe instead. Hope that helps!

Stefania JefferiesSaturday 8th October 2022

Hi what reduced fat spread would you recommend please.

Reply

    HollyTuesday 11th October 2022

    Hey Stefania, a spread such as Flora Lighter or other light spread would be fine for this recipe, hope that helps!

Hi could you use ricotta instead of cream cheese do you think? Just to say love this site, even the fussy eaters in the family don’t turn their noses up when I say it’s from pinch of nom xxx

    HollyThursday 12th May 2022

    Hey Helen, Thanks so much for your message it’s so lovely to hear that you and your family are enjoying the recipes! We haven’t tested this recipe using ricotta so we can’t guarantee the results but it should work but may alter the finished flavour and texture of the cheesecake slightly. Hope that helps!

Could this be made with quark?
Thanks

    Hey Siobhan, we haven’t tested this recipe using quark but it should work okay instead of the cream cheese. Hope that helps!

I made this cheesecake today and it was a massive hit with my family. Beautiful smooth cheesecake and not too heavy as some cheesecakes can be.

    Hey Sue, thanks for your message, we are so glad to hear you and your family enjoyed this cheesecake!

LisaSunday 23rd January 2022

Hi can I substitute the cornflour for anything ? Thanks

Reply

    HollyMonday 24th January 2022

    Hey Lisa, you really need to use cornflour for this cheesecake. It helps to give the cheesecake a firmer texture that will be easier to slice. If you leave the cornflour out only the eggs will thicken the mixture and it will be softer and will more difficult to slice. Hope that helps!

LisaFriday 17th December 2021

Hi. Could I make this the day before? Thanks

Reply

    HollyFriday 17th December 2021

    Hey Lisa, Yes you can leave this in the fridge overnight when baked and finish assembling when ready to serve, hope that helps!

What can I use instead of Greek Yoghurt, as Hubby wont touch anything with yoghurt in it, he swears he can taste it even if I say no there isnt

Reply

    HollyWednesday 15th December 2021

    Hey Anne, unfortunately we have only tested this recipe using Greek or natural yoghurt. You could try swapping the brand you are using as some of them have a more bitter taste than others which could be what your husband is tasting. Hope that helps

Can I put ordinary sugar in this

    HollyFriday 3rd December 2021

    Hey Krystle, yes you can swap the sweetener for sugar and it will work fine. Hope that helps!

can i ask what cream cheese is best to use please

Reply

    HollyWednesday 27th October 2021

    Hey Adele, we used Philadelphia Lightest which has 3% fat so any of the lighter brands of cream cheese will work great for this recipe, hope that helps!

Charlotte DuttonSunday 12th September 2021

Hi, can this be made using individual small dishes

Thanks

Reply

    HollyWednesday 15th September 2021

    Hey Charlotte, Yes you could make this cheesecake in individual dishes just keep an eye on them in the oven as they may cook a lot quicker than a large cheesecake. Hope that helps!
