Directions
-
Preheat the oven to 325°F (160°C). This initial step is crucial as it prepares your oven for the tremendous baking process that lies ahead.
-
In a food processor, crush the Biscoff cookies into fine crumbs. Combine with melted butter until well mixed. This mixture should be moist yet crumbly. Press it firmly into the bottom of a springform pan to form a sturdy crust.
-
In a mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until it is smooth and free of lumps. Adding sugar and vanilla at this stage infuses the cheesecake with sweetness and flavor. Mix well until well combined.
-
Next, mix in the sour cream and eggs, ensuring you combine everything just until incorporated. This helps to preserve the airy texture of the cheesecake, which is key to that luxurious mouthfeel.
-
Pour the cheesecake filling over the prepared crust, smoothing the top with a spatula. The evenness will create a visually appealing layer once baked.

Bake in the preheated oven for about 50-60 minutes. Keep an eye on it—the center should be set but still slightly jiggly. This ensures a tremendous, creamy texture without being overly firm.
-
After baking, allow the cheesecake to cool completely at room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate it for at least 4 hours, though overnight is even better. This waiting period is essential for the flavors to meld together beautifully.

Before serving, drizzle the cheesecake with homemade salted caramel sauce. The warm caramel adds a tremendous finishing touch that elevates the entire dessert.
