Ingredients:

For the Crust:

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup light brown sugar
  • 6 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt

For the Filling:

  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs, at room temperature
  • 1/2 cup sour cream, at room temperature
  • 2 teaspoons vanilla extract

For the Cinnamon Swirl:

  • 6 tablespoons melted butter
  • 1 cup dark brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

Instructions:

Crust:

  1. Start by preheating your oven to 350°F.
  2. In a medium-sized bowl, combine the melted butter, graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup of brown sugar, and a dash of salt. Mix these ingredients until they come together.
  3. Firmly press the mixture into an 8-inch square baking dish. Place it in the preheated oven and bake for 8 minutes. After baking, set it aside to cool.

Filling:

  1. Lower the oven temperature to 325°F.
  2. In a blender, add the softened cream cheese, granulated sugar, and vanilla extract. Blend the mixture until it becomes velvety smooth.
  3. Incorporate the room-temperature sour cream into the blend and give it another whirl. Then, add the eggs one at a time, blending in between until your filling is impeccably smooth. Set this aside.

Cinnamon Swirl:

  1. In a separate medium bowl, gently stir together the melted butter, dark brown sugar, cinnamon, and all-purpose flour. Mix until it forms a silky, cinnamon-infused paste.

Assembling the Bars:

  1. Begin assembling your cheesecake bars by pouring half of the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust.
  2. Dot the surface with your cinnamon mixture and, with a gentle hand, swirl them together using a knife. This is where the magic of the cinnamon roll comes into play!
  3. Add the remaining cheesecake filling, followed by the rest of the cinnamon mixture. Give it one more delicate swirl.
  4. Bake your creation until the center is mostly set, which typically takes about 35-40 minutes.
  5. Once baked to perfection, allow your cheesecake bars to chill until they firm up, which usually takes around 2 hours.

With this unique twist on classic cheesecake, our Blender-Made Cinnamon Roll Cheesecake Bars deliver an enticing blend of flavors that require minimal effort. You won’t have to fuss over water baths or complicated steps to relish the delightful fusion of cheesecake and cinnamon rolls.
