Instructions
- Prepare the pan: Line the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan with parchment paper. Arrange alternating milk and white chocolate KitKat fingers upright around the edges.
- Make the crust: Combine crushed Biscoff cookies with melted butter. Press firmly into the bottom of the pan.
- Whip the cream: Beat the cold heavy cream until stiff peaks form.
- Prepare the filling: In another bowl, beat cream cheese, powdered sugar, and vanilla until smooth and creamy.
- Combine: Gently fold the whipped cream into the cream cheese mixture. Stir in crushed KitKat pieces.
- Assemble: Spoon the cheesecake filling over the crust and smooth the top. Refrigerate for 4–5 hours until firm.
- Make the ganache: Heat the heavy cream until steaming, then pour over chopped milk chocolate. Let sit for 2 minutes and stir until smooth. Add butter if desired.
- Decorate: Allow the ganache to cool slightly, then pour it over the chilled cheesecake. Sprinkle with crushed Biscoff cookies and chopped KitKat pieces.
- Chill and serve: Refrigerate for another 2 hours until the chocolate topping is set. Carefully remove the springform ring, slice, and enjoy!
