Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

For the crust
  • 2 cups Biscoff or Lotus cookies, crushed into fine crumbs
  • 6 tablespoons melted butter
For the filling
  • 16 ounces cream cheese, softened Ensure it is at room temperature for easy mixing.
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar Adjust for sweetness preference if desired.
  • 2 large eggs Add one at a time during mixing.
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup sour cream or Greek yogurt Both work well for creaminess.
  • 1/2 cup cookie butter Plus 2-3 tablespoons for swirling.
  • a pinch salt

Method
 

Preparation of Crust
  1. Mix cookie crumbs with melted butter until it looks like wet sand.
  2. Press into a lined 8x8 or 9x9 inch pan using the bottom of a measuring cup.
  3. Bake at 350°F for 8 to 10 minutes, then let cool slightly.
Mixing the Filling
  1. Beat the softened cream cheese and sugar until smooth.
  2. Add eggs one at a time, mixing gently.
  3. Mix in vanilla, sour cream, salt, and cookie butter until just smooth.
Adding the Swirl
  1. Pour the filling over the crust.
  2. Warm additional cookie butter in the microwave until drizzleable and dot it over the filling.
  3. Use a knife to gently swirl the cookie butter into the filling.
Baking and Cooling
  1. Bake for 30 to 38 minutes until the edges are set and the center jiggles slightly.
  2. Cool at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Serving
  1. Use a sharp knife to slice into squares, wiping the knife between cuts for clean slices.

Notes

Let cream cheese soften before mixing, avoid overbaking to prevent cracks, and for extra crunch, sprinkle cookie crumbs on top after cooling.
