# Steps to Follow:

02 - In a small to medium bowl, mix cookie crumbs with melted butter until evenly coated.
03 - Press the crumb mixture firmly and evenly into the bottom of a prepared 9-inch springform pan.
04 - Place the crust in the freezer and let it firm up while preparing the filling.
05 - In a large bowl, beat room-temperature cream cheese, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, and instant pudding mix with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
06 - Add Biscoff spread and sour cream to the cream cheese mixture and blend well.
07 - Pour in cold heavy cream and continue mixing until the filling is thick and smooth.
08 - Pour the filling over the chilled crust and refrigerate for at least 5 hours, preferably overnight, until fully set.
09 - Remove cheesecake from pan, spread additional warmed Biscoff spread evenly on top, sprinkle crushed Biscoff crumbs around the edges, garnish with whole cookies, and serve.

# Additional Tips:

01 - Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature for smooth mixing and avoid lumps.
02 - Use a springform pan for easy release.
03 - Chill the cheesecake for at least 5 hours to achieve optimal texture; overnight chilling is ideal.
04 - For quicker whipping, chill the mixing bowl in the freezer for 10 minutes before use.
05 - Opt for full-fat cream cheese to maintain stability and richness.
06 - Frequently scrape down bowl sides during mixing for a homogenous batter.
