Ingredients
  

  • 2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • cup unsalted butter, melted
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 3 packages (8 oz each) cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • ¼ cup sour cream
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 tsp ground cinnamon
  • cup unsalted butter, melted
  • ¼ cup brown sugar
  • 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tbsp milk
  • ½ tsp vanilla extract

Equipment

  • 9-inch springform pan
  • Mixing bowls
  • Electric mixer or whisk
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Spatula
  • Piping bag or Ziploc bag
  • Skewer or toothpick

Method
 

  1. Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
  2. In a bowl, mix the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, sugar, and cinnamon until well combined. Press this mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan.
  3. Bake the crust for 8-10 minutes, then let it cool completely.
  4. In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Add the granulated sugar, sour cream, eggs, vanilla, and cinnamon, and mix until well combined. Pour the filling over the cooled crust.
  5. In a small bowl, mix the melted butter, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Pipe or spoon this cinnamon mixture onto the cheesecake in a spiral pattern. Use a skewer or toothpick to drag through the swirl, creating a marbled effect.
  6. Bake the cheesecake for 55-65 minutes, or until the edges are set but the center is slightly jiggly. Let it cool in the oven with the door slightly open for about an hour.
  7. Refrigerate the cheesecake for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  8. While the cheesecake is chilling, prepare the glaze by mixing the powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla extract until smooth. Drizzle the glaze over the chilled cheesecake.

Notes

For a different twist, try using crushed cookies like Oreos for the crust or substituting sour cream with Greek yogurt. Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for a smoother batter. You can freeze leftover cheesecake for up to 3 months; just thaw it in the refrigerator before serving. For extra flair, consider adding a streusel topping or a layer of caramel sauce on top before serving.
