Biscoff Cookie Butter Apple Cheesecake Bars 🍎🍂 (recipe makes an 8x8 pan) Crust: 22 biscoff cookies, finely crushed 5 tbsp (70g) melted unsalted butter Spiced Apples: 2 cups peeled & diced apples (~2 apples) 2 tbsp (25g) brown sugar 1 tsp cinnamon ¼ tsp nutmeg Biscoff Crumble: ⅔ cup (80g) all-purpose flour ½ cup (100g) brown sugar 4 biscoff cookies (~30g), crushed ½ tsp cinnamon ⅓ cup (76g) unsalted butter, melted Cheesecake Filling: 16 oz (454g) cream cheese, softened ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar ¼ cup (60g) sour cream, room temp 1 tsp vanilla extract Pinch salt 1 egg, room temp + melted biscoff spread/cookie butter to drizzle on top Instructions: Preheat the oven to 325°F. Crush 22 biscoff cookies with a food processor or by hand and mix with melted butter. Press into a parchment lined 8x8 pan and bake 8-10 minutes. Let it cool. Combine the diced apples with brown sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Set aside. To make the crumble, combine crushed biscoff cookies, flour, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add the melted butter, and mix until crumbly. You can use your hands to create more clumps. Chill while you make the filling. Beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Mix in sour cream and vanilla. Add egg and mix on low speed or by hand until just combined. Spread this evenly over the cooled crust. Spoon the spiced apples on top. Sprinkle the crumble all over. Bake for 35-45 min. The center should still look slightly jiggly but not liquidy. Let it cool at room temp for at least 30 minutes, then chill for at least 3 hours. Drizzle with cookie butter.
