Is Biscoff vegan?

Yes, it is.

Luckily Biscoff is vegan, so you can enjoy Biscoff biscuits and Biscoff spread without worrying.

When we first made our Biscoff cheesecake recipes, we were asked by our vegan friends to make a vegan-friendly version, so we did exactly that!

The most delicious Biscoff biscuit base, with a to die for dairy free cream cheesecake filling, topped with sublime melted Biscoff spread. It’s hard to imagine a vegan dessert much better than this one.

What is Biscoff spread?

Biscoff spread is a delicious cookie butter and is perfect for using in vegan biscoff desserts.

What Biscoff spread should I buy?

It’s a personal preference, a bit like smooth or crunchy peanut butter.

We used a smooth spread but a crunchy Biscoff spread would also work very well.

Choose the spread that floats your boat the most.

Where can I buy Lotus Biscoff spread?

It’s available in stores throughout Europe, America, and Canada, you can buy it on Amazon.

We’ve also heard that Walmart sells vegan Lotus spread, but we can’t guarantee it – if you find it there, please could you let us know in the comments at the bottom of this post?

You can also use it to make this easy Biscoff granola recipe.

How can a cheesecake be vegan?

It’s a good question to ask, as normally a cheesecake would be made from ingredients including butter, double cream (heavy cream), and cream cheese.

In this vegan cheesecake version, we use melted vegan butter, dairy-free cream (heavy cream), and vegan cream cheese.

If you choose to decorate with whipped cream, there’s a plant-based version of that too!

This delicious cheesecake is big on taste but ticking all of the vegan boxes!

Do I have to use a food processor?

A food processor speeds things up, that’s undeniable, but it’s not crucial.

If you don’t have a processor, then there is a simple way to make your Biscoff biscuit crumbs!

Place your biscuits in a sturdy sealed bag, and then take a rolling pin and carefully bash the biscuits until a fine crumb is made – simple isn’t it!

Does this cheesecake need cooking?

No, it doesn’t!

This is what makes it so easy to make, this is a no-bake Biscoff cheesecake that’s suitable for vegans.

It’s all about the tin

Do yourself a favor and use a good quality cake tin.

A springform tin is great and a push tin works really well.

Remember that you need to turn the removable base around so that there is no ridge, or you’ll really struggle to get your vegan Biscoff cheesecake out.

It’s not crucial that you line the base of the cake tin, but if you have any doubts about the quality of your tin, then we recommend it, you don’t want your cheesecake sticking.

We advise removing the base, laying it on parchment paper, and cutting around it for a perfect size match.

Some people will wrap aluminum foil around the base, but we’re not so keen on that method, it’s a personal choice.

How do I store it?

Our vegan Biscoff cheesecake will store in the fridge in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

It also freezes for up to 3 months, but we recommend freezing it undecorated.

Recipe notes and expert tips

• Which vegan cream cheese do you use? We’ve used Violife cream cheese, but you could use any brand that you prefer.
• Use double vegan cream The best vegan cream to use is double vegan cream, again we use Violife cream, but we’re not affiliated with it, so use whatever vegan double cream you prefer.
• Add cream Swirls of vegan whipped cream make for a heightened impression and a delicious extra for your cheesecake!
• Missing a food processor? Place the biscuits in a sealed bag and bash them with a rolling pin until biscuit crumbs are made.
• Storing notes Store in an airtight container for up to 3 days and in the freezer for up to 3 months.

How to make our vegan Biscoff cheesecake recipe with step-step instructions

Making our vegan Biscoff cheesecake recipe is easy if you follow our step-by-step instructions.

For the vegan Lotus Biscoff base

First, put the Lotus Biscoff biscuits into your food processor, blitz them until they are a fine crumb, and place them in a mixing bowl.

Then, melt your vegan butter and pour the melted butter over the Biscoff crumbs, mix them together until they are combined.

In a prepared springform tin, place the biscuit crumbs and press them down evenly, so they are compacted firmly in the tin, then place it in the fridge to chill.

For the vegan cheesecake filling

Now, prepare your cheesecake filling; in a large mixing bowl, add vegan cream cheese, icing sugar, vegan cream, vanilla extract, and Biscoff spread.

Using an electric mixture at the lowest setting, mix all the ingredients together until soft peaks form.

Now, add the cheesecake filling to the cake tin and spread evenly over the Lotus Biscoff base until it’s completely smooth.

Return the cheesecake to the fridge and chill it for a minimum of 6 hours, but preferably chill in the fridge overnight.

Once chilled and set, carefully remove your vegan Biscoff cheesecake from the tin and place it on a cake stand or plate.

Optional cheesecake decoration

You can leave your Biscoff cheesecake plain and it will be delicious, but why not try and make it that extra special?

It’s deceptively easy to decorate!

Melt Biscoff spread in a microwave suitable dish or using a bain-marie, then let it cool until it’s still runny but cool enough to pour on your cheesecake.

Pour the Biscoff spread in the center of your cheesecake and then, using a palette knife, evenly spread the Biscoff spread over the cheesecake top.

Be as creative as you like with the Biscoff spread!

We’ve also taken three Lotus Biscoff biscuits and placed them sunken into the cheesecake.

Serve and enjoy your magnificent vegan Biscoff cheesecake!
