Description

This viral “Japanese cheesecake” isn’t actually cheesecake, but it’s still such a fun little treat. It’s a 2-ingredient snack that somehow tastes like dessert. You just press cookies into yogurt, pop it in the fridge, and by the next day, it turns into this creamy, soft, cheesecake-ish situation that’s surprisingly delicious.

Instructions

For the Large Tub

  1. Open the yogurt tub, but don’t fully remove the foil.
  2. Press Biscoff cookies straight down into the yogurt in a row, pushing them in until only the very tip is showing. You’re mostly just trying to fill up the open white space—no need to make it perfect.
  3. Optional: If you want more cookie coverage, scoop out some of the yogurt, press in one layer of cookies, add the yogurt back, then add a second layer of cookies on top.
  4. Cover well and refrigerate overnight. Enjoy!

For the Single Serving

  1. Open the yogurt cup, but leave the foil attached.
  2. Break the cookies in half, then press the jagged edges of each piece down into the yogurt until only the tips are sticking up.
  3. Cover well and refrigerate for at least 4 hours (overnight is even better). Enjoy!

Notes

  • Store covered in the fridge for up to 4 days. Don’t freeze.
  • Like any yogurt, a little liquid may pool on top after a day or so. Totally normal—just pour it off or stir it in.
  • For the big tub, the cookies may not reach all the way to the bottom. That’s why the two-layer method works better for some people. (Biscoff also makes XL cookies that would be perfect here!)
  • I personally didn’t love it with plain yogurt, but vanilla and cheesecake-flavored yogurt were SO good. Use whatever you love most.
  • You don’t have to stick with Biscoff! Any cookie that can soak up moisture works great—Oreos, graham crackers, shortbread, etc. Even Belvita breakfast cookies work.
  • I like leaving the foil on because it acts as a second barrier for storage. Just be sure to cover it with something else too (lid, plastic wrap, etc.) so it stays fresh.
