Easiest Lotus Cheesecake Recipe

Before we start with the lotus cheesecake recipe, let’s discuss what are lotus biscoff. If you are new to Biscoff biscuits, it’s also known as speculaas or speculoos. It’s a European cookie, baked with spices. Lotus Biscoff is a popular brand that sells biscuits with a subtle flavor of cinnamon and a strong caramelized flavor.

It goes well with coffee, and tea as they claim. The lotus spread is just cookie butter, a spreadable paste with ground cookies in it, with the same taste. Lotus spread is used to make many desserts and can be even consumed directly from the jar (it’s highly addictive we’re warning you).

Now let’s learn how to make the easiest lotus cheesecake which you won’t have to bake and only consists of 5 ingredients.

Ingredients

  • 16 Biscoff biscuits
  • 3 tablespoons Melted butter
  • 200 gm Cream cheese
  • 200 ml Whipping cream
  • ½ cup Biscoff spread
  • ¼ cup Icing sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Instructions for Lotus Cheesecake

Base

  1. First, break the biscuits roughly and place them in a processor. Grind finely.
  2. Add melt butter to it and mix thoroughly.
  3. Take a 6-inch spring foam pan. Line the base with butter paper.
  4. Spread the biscuit mixture and gently press it to form a base. Keep inside the fridge for 30 mins.

Cheese filling

  1. Meanwhile, prepare the cheese filling. Take whipping cream in a mixing bowl.
  2. Start beating at low speed and gradually increase it to high. Whip until stiff peaks form. Transfer to another bowl.
  3. Now place cream cheese, biscoff spread, icing sugar, and vanilla in the mixing bowl and beat well to mix.
  4. Once done, gently fold in the whipped cream until silky and smooth.
  5. Take out the base from the fridge, and pour the prepared cheese filling over it. Spread evenly.
  6. Keep in the fridge overnight (recommended) or a minimum of 6 hours.

Unmolding

  1. Once set, take out the pan, and run a knife around the sides gently.
  2. Take a heavy cup, and place the pan over it. Release the clip, and gently pull the pan down.
  3. Now transfer the base to the cake stand or platform. Smoothen the cheese filling if needed.
  4. Insert a broad spatula in between crust and pan base carefully. Gently remove it from the pan’s base. Since we have lined it, it will come off easily.

For top glaze

  1. In a small pan, take around 3 to 4 tablespoons of biscoff spread. Heat slightly to melt it.
  2. Pour it over the set cheesecake. Spread evenly without disturbing the filling.
  3. For the sides, you can carefully spoon a few drops for a dripping effect. You can do this using a piping bag for precisely doing it.
  4. Refrigerate again a minimum of 30 mins before serving. For a firmer texture, freeze for not more than 30 mins just before serving.

Slice Lotus Cheesecake & serving
