Scale
Main Ingredients:
- 1 pack lotus biscoff cookies (or other tea biscuits)
- 8 ounces (226 grams) cream cheese, softened
- 23 tablespoons condensed milk (adjust to taste)
Dairy and Liquid Ingredients:
- ½ cup (120 milliliters) heavy whipping cream
- ¼ cup (60 milliliters) milk (for dipping cookies)
Garnish Ingredient:
- unsweetened cocoa powder (for dusting)
Instructions
- Whisk cream cheese, heavy whipping cream, and condensed milk in a mixing bowl until the mixture achieves a silky, uniform consistency with no lumps.
- Select a rectangular dish and create the base layer by carefully positioning cookies to completely cover the bottom surface without leaving gaps.
- Using a spatula, delicately spread a thin, even layer of the cream cheese mixture over the arranged cookies, ensuring complete coverage.
- Gently dip each subsequent cookie into milk, allowing excess liquid to drip off, then place them carefully atop the cream layer, creating a uniform arrangement.
- Repeat the process of adding cream cheese mixture and milk-dipped cookies, maintaining consistent layering and gentle pressure to prevent air pockets.
- Continue building layers until ingredients are almost exhausted, ensuring the final top layer is a smooth, generous spread of cream cheese mixture.
- Elegantly dust the surface with unsweetened cocoa powder, using a fine mesh sifter for an even, delicate coating.
- Securely cover the dessert with plastic wrap, ensuring no surface is exposed, and refrigerate for a minimum of 4-5 hours or ideally overnight.
- Before serving, remove from refrigerator, slice into neat portions, and present chilled for optimal texture and flavor.
Notes
- Soften cream cheese at room temperature to ensure a smooth, lump-free mixture that blends easily.

- Experiment with different cookie types like graham crackers or chocolate wafers for unique flavor variations.
- Store the cheesekut in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days to maintain its cre
