Creamy white chocolate and Biscoff combine in a smooth, luscious swirl with a buttery cookie base.

# Ingredients Required:

→ Crust

01 - 250 grams Biscoff cookies, finely crushed
02 - 85 grams unsalted butter, melted

→ Filling

03 - 680 grams full-fat cream cheese, softened
04 - 200 grams granulated sugar
05 - 3 large eggs, room temperature
06 - 10 milliliters vanilla extract
07 - 170 grams white chocolate, finely chopped
08 - 180 milliliters sour cream
09 - 125 grams Biscoff cookie butter, warmed until pourable

# Guide to Cooking:

01 - Preheat oven to 160°C. Line the base of a 23 cm springform pan with parchment paper.
02 - Pulse Biscoff cookies until fine crumbs. Combine with melted butter until mixture resembles wet sand.
03 - Press crumb mixture firmly into the bottom of the pan. Bake for 8 minutes then let cool completely.
04 - Chop white chocolate finely. Melt in microwave in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Let cool slightly.
05 - Beat cream cheese with sugar until smooth, about 2 minutes. Incorporate eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Add vanilla extract, sour cream, and melted white chocolate; mix until just combined.
06 - Pour filling over cooled crust and tap pan gently to release air bubbles.
07 - Drizzle warmed Biscoff cookie butter over batter. Create swirls by running a toothpick or knife through the surface.
08 - Bake at 160°C for 45-55 minutes until edges are set and center slightly wobbles. Tent with foil if top browns too quickly.
09 - Turn off oven, crack door open, and cool cheesecake inside for 1 hour. Refrigerate in pan for minimum 4 hours, preferably overnight.
10 - Run a thin knife around edge before removing springform ring. For clean slices, dip knife in hot water and wipe dry between cuts.

# Extra Suggestions:

01 - Using room-temperature ingredients ensures smooth batter and even baking.
