If you’ve spent even five minutes scrolling TikTok lately, you’ve probably seen the viral Japanese-style cheesecake trend where people are dramatically shoving cookies straight into a tub of yogurt and calling it dessert. Honestly? I was skeptical.

The first time I made this, my boys hovered around the fridge like sharks, repeatedly opening the door to “check if it was ready yet.” When it was finally ready, it disappeared faster than a bag of chips after school. That’s when I knew this one was a keeper.

Ingredients

Oikos Greek Yogurt (about 650g / 2.5 cups): Thick, creamy Greek yogurt that forms the cheesecake-style base and adds a boost of protein.
Biscoff Biscuit Cookies (about 250g package, using roughly 2/3): These spiced cookies soften beautifully and create that signature layered cheesecake texture.
Espresso coffee, optional (½ cup): Adds a bold coffee flavor for a tiramisu-inspired twist.
Unsweetened cocoa powder, optional (1 Tbsp): A light dusting on top gives classic tiramisu vibes without extra sweetness.

Instructions

1. Open the container of plain yogurt, transfer it into a small baking dish (approximately 4×6”), and spread it out evenly.

2. Press the Biscoff cookies vertically into the yogurt, side by side, filling the entire dish. Break cookies in half if needed to fill gaps.

Optionally: dip the cookies in espresso before placing in the yogurt.

3. Refrigerate for at least 6 hours to allow the cookies to soften and the flavors to meld together. Only 2 hours are needed if you dip the cookies in coffee.

Recipe Notes

Use thick Greek yogurt for best results; thinner yogurt won’t hold the cookies as well. Skyr and Siggi’s are popular brands that would work well too! You could try different yogurt flavors like Vanilla or Strawberry.
In a hurry? Dip the cookies in a liquid, like espresso, before placing in the yogurt to speed up the chilling time.
Let it chill longer if you want a softer, cake-like texture throughout.
If you prefer sweeter desserts, drizzle honey or maple syrup over the top before serving. Or try adding a teaspoon of vanilla to the yogurt.
Break cookies strategically to ensure every bite has yogurt and cookie together.
For the best texture, served fully chilled.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use a different type of cookie?
Yes, but Biscoff works best because of its texture and warm spice flavor. Graham crackers or digestive biscuits can work in a pinch.

Is this dessert very sweet?
No, it’s lightly sweet. If you prefer sweeter desserts, add honey, maple syrup, or your favorite sugar free sweetener.

How long does it last in the fridge?
It will keep well for up to 3 days covered in the refrigerator, though it rarely lasts that long in our house.
