Equipment

  • Mixing bowl
  • Electric mixer
  • Spatula
  • Springform pan
  • Wire rack

Ingredients

  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 3 packages cream cheese, softened (8 oz each)
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup sour cream
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted (for swirl)
  • 1/4 cup brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon (for swirl)
  • 1 sheet puff pastry

Instructions

  • Mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and cinnamon in a bowl and press into the bottom of a springform pan.
  • Bake the crust for about 8 minutes until golden.
  • Beat the cream cheese and sugar together until smooth, then add sour cream, eggs, vanilla, and cinnamon, mixing gently.
  • Pour the cheesecake mixture over the pre-baked crust.
  • Mix melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon in a small bowl, then spread over the puff pastry and cut into strips.
  • Arrange strips on the cheesecake batter in a lattice pattern.
  • Bake the cheesecake at 325°F for about 50-60 minutes until set with a slight jiggle in the center.
  • Let the cheesecake cool on a wire rack, then refrigerate for at least 4 hours before serving.

Notes

For a chocolate twist, substitute graham crackers with crushed Oreos. To prevent cracks, avoid overmixing and use a water bath while baking. Store the cheesecake in the fridge for up to 5 days or freeze it for up to 2 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight before serving. For presentation, garnish with powdered sugar, caramel drizzle, or fresh berries.
