Instructions
Crust
Prep: Line a 12-cup muffin pan with parchment muffin liners and set aside.
Crush biscoff cookies: Place biscoff cookies in a ziploc bag. Whack them with a rolling pin until they're finely crushed. You can also use a food processor to do this. Transfer the crumbs to a medium bowl.
Mix in melted butter: Pour melted butter into the crushed biscoff and stir to mix until all the crumbs are saturated and it resembles wet sand.
Press into liners: Add a heaping tablespoon of crumb mixture to each parchment liner. Use a small measuring cup with a flat bottom or the end of a rolling pin to press the crumb mixture into a flat layer at the bottom of each liner. Let the entire pan chill in the fridge while you prepare the cheesecake filling.
Cheesecake
Whip cream: In a medium mixing bowl, add whipping cream. Use an electric hand mixer to beat on low-medium speed until it becomes stiff peaks. Set aside.
Cream cheese mixture: In a large mixing bowl, add cream cheese, greek yogurt, and powdered sugar. Use the same hand mixer to beat on low-medium speed until it becomes very smooth and creamy.
Mix in biscoff spread: Warm the biscoff spread on the stove or in the microwave (use 10 second intervals) until it becomes runny. Add this to the cheesecake mixture and mix until thoroughly combined.
Fold in whipped cream: Add the whipped cream to the cheesecake mixture and fold together with a spatula until no streaks remain. Don't overmix as you don't want to deflate all the air in the whipped cream.
Fill liners: Use an ice cream scooper or spoon to add a large dollop (about 6 tablespoons) of cheesecake mixture to each muffin liner, on top of the crust. Use the back of a spoon to push the mixture into the edges of each liner and smooth the top.
Chill: Cover the pan with plastic wrap and chill in the fridge overnight (about 12 hours). The longer you let them chill, the firmer the cheesecakes will set.
Toppings
Whip cream: In a medium mixing bowl, add whipping cream, powdered sugar, and vanilla extract. Use an electric hand mixer on low-medium speed until it becomes stiff peaks. Transfer the whipped cream to a piping bag fitted with a piping tip of your choice and set aside.
Remove liners: Remove the parchment liner from each mini cheesecake and place the cheesecakes on a wire rack or serving dish. You can keep the liners on for convenience if you prefer.
Biscoff spread: Warm the biscoff spread on the stovetop or in the microwave (use 10 second intervals) until it becomes runny. Add about 1 tablespoon of runny biscoff spread on top of each cheesecake and use the back of the spoon to spread it around. Let any excess drip over the sides of the cheesecakes.
Pipe whipped cream: Pipe swirls of whipped cream on top of each cheesecake. Top each cheesecake with a whole biscoff cookie or sprinkle with biscoff cookie crumbs. Serve immediately or keep in the fridge until you're ready to serve.
