Biscoff Cookie Butter Cheesecake Pops (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

→ Cheesecake Base

01 - 8 oz cream cheese, softened
02 - ½ cup powdered sugar
03 - 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
04 - ½ cup whipped cream (or Cool Whip)
05 - ½ cup crushed Biscoff cookies

→ Cookie Butter Drizzle

06 - ½ cup Biscoff cookie butter
07 - 2 tablespoons heavy cream (optional, for thinning)

→ Toppings & Assembly

08 - Whole Biscoff cookies
09 - Extra crushed Biscoff cookies for garnish
10 - Popsicle sticks

# Instructions:

01 - In a medium mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the powdered sugar and vanilla extract, then continue beating until completely smooth and creamy with no lumps.
02 - Using a spatula, gently fold in the whipped cream until just combined. Then fold in the crushed Biscoff cookies, being careful not to overmix so the mixture stays light and fluffy.
03 - Spoon the cheesecake mixture into silicone molds or ice cube trays, filling each cavity completely. Smooth the tops with the back of a spoon or offset spatula.
04 - Carefully insert a popsicle stick into the center of each mold. Place the filled molds in the freezer and freeze for 2-3 hours, or until the pops are completely firm.
05 - When the cheesecake pops are almost done freezing, prepare your cookie butter drizzle. Place the Biscoff cookie butter in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 15-second intervals, stirring between each, until it reaches a smooth, pourable consistency. If needed, stir in heavy cream to thin it out further.
06 - Once frozen, carefully remove the cheesecake pops from their molds. Working quickly, drizzle the melted cookie butter over each pop, allowing it to run down the sides slightly.
07 - While the cookie butter drizzle is still wet, sprinkle crushed Biscoff cookies over the tops of the pops. If desired, gently press a whole Biscoff cookie onto the top or side of each pop for decoration.
08 - Place the decorated pops on a parchment-lined baking sheet and refrigerate for 10-15 minutes to allow the cookie butter to set. Serve cold and enjoy! Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the freezer.

# Notes:

01 - For easier removal from molds, dip the bottom of the mold briefly in warm water before unmolding.
02 - These can be made up to 2 weeks ahead and stored in the freezer until ready to serve.
03 - For a fun variation, try dipping the pops in melted white chocolate before drizzling with cookie butter.
