Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and wrap a 9-inch springform pan tightly with aluminum foil.
- In a food processor, pulse the Biscoff cookies, sugar, and melted butter until finely crushed. Press into the bottom of the springform pan and bake for 12 minutes.
- Let the crust cool while preparing the filling.
Cheesecake Batter
- In a stand mixer, combine softened cream cheese with sugar and cornstarch, beating until smooth.
- Gradually add pumpkin puree, sour cream, pumpkin pie spice, and vanilla, mixing until just incorporated.
- Add eggs and egg yolks one at a time on low speed, mixing until just combined.
Baking
- Pour the cheesecake batter into the cooled crust, place the springform pan in a larger roasting pan, and add boiling water around it.
- Bake for 1 hour. Turn off the oven and crack the door open to cool slowly for another hour.
Cooling & Chilling
- Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool at room temperature for about an hour.
- Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours or overnight.
Frosting
- In a mixing bowl, whip softened butter until pale and fluffy. Mix in cream cheese until combined.
- Gradually sift in powdered sugar, blending until fluffy.
Assembly
- Remove the cheesecake from the springform pan and pipe frosting around the edges.
- Optionally sprinkle crushed Biscoff cookies on top before serving.
