Let me share my favorite no-fuss dessert that always gets rave reviews - No-Bake Biscoff Cheesecake Cups! I love how these little cups of heaven layer buttery lotus cookies with creamy cheesecake filling and that irresistible cookie butter topping. The best part? You only need five ingredients and zero baking skills to create these impressive treats.
Simple Yet Spectacular
What makes these cups so special is that amazing spiced Biscoff flavor running through every layer. The way the crunchy cookie base meets that silky cheesecake filling and smooth cookie butter top creates pure magic. They're perfect when you want something fancy but don't want to spend hours in the kitchen.

My Best Tips
Always use cold cream for the best whip and let that cream cheese get nice and soft first. When you fold everything together be gentle we want to keep all that lovely air in there. These taste even better the next day so feel free to make them ahead.
Keep Them Fresh
Cover them up well and they'll stay perfect in the fridge for 3-4 days. I love making these ahead for parties they're always a hit. Just keep them cool until serving time.
