Description

A delightful dessert that combines the flavors of cinnamon sugar churros with a creamy cheesecake, perfect for any occasion.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 ½ cups graham cracker crumbs
  • ½ cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 cup granulated sugar, divided
  • 2 teaspoons ground cinnamon, divided
  • 3 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • ½ cup all-purpose flour

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325°F.
  2. In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, ½ cup of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust.
  3. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth and creamy.
  4. Gradually add the remaining ½ cup of sugar and 1 teaspoon of cinnamon, mixing until well combined. Add the vanilla extract and mix again.
  5. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing on low speed after each addition until just combined. Do not overmix.
  6. Gently fold in the sour cream and flour until fully incorporated.
  7. Pour the cream cheese mixture over the prepared crust in the springform pan.
  8. Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
  9. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside for an additional hour to cool gradually.
  10. Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
  11. Before serving, mix ¼ cup of sugar with 1 teaspoon of cinnamon in a small bowl. Sprinkle this mixture generously over the top of the chilled cheesecake.

Notes

  • For a chocolate twist, drizzle melted chocolate over the top before serving.
  • You can also add a layer of caramel sauce for extra sweetness.
  • If you prefer a lighter version, substitute Greek yogurt for the sour cream.
