Ingredients

Scale

For the Cinnamon Filling:

  • 1/2 cup packed light brown sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/8 tsp ground nutmeg
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted

For the Cheesecake Layer:

  • 3 packages (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 cup sour cream
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

For the Crust:

  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar

Instructions

Step 1: Preheat and Prepare

Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C) and grease a 9-inch springform pan.

Step 2: Make the Cinnamon Filling

In a small bowl, combine all the cinnamon filling ingredients until smooth. Set aside.

Step 3: Prepare the Crust

In a medium bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar until well combined. Press this mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake the crust for about 10 minutes and then allow it to cool.

Step 4: Beat the Cheesecake Layer

In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar together until creamy and smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, ensuring to beat well after each addition. Then, carefully mix in the sour cream and vanilla extract.

Step 5: Layer the Cheesecake and Cinnamon Filling

Pour half of the cheesecake mixture onto the cooled crust. Drizzle half of the cinnamon filling over it, then use a knife to swirl for a sweet ripple effect.

Step 6: Complete the Layering

Repeat with the remaining cheesecake batter and the rest of the cinnamon filling, swirling again for that attractive look.

Step 7: Bake the Cheesecake

Bake for 50-60 minutes. The center should be slightly jiggly but mostly set. Allow the cheesecake to cool on a rack before transferring it to the fridge for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.

Step 8: Serve and Enjoy

When ready to serve, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan, slice, and enjoy the creamy, cinnamon-spiced goodness!

Notes

For the best results, refrigerate the cheesecake overnight to enhance the flavor and texture.
