Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 3 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
  • 1 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup sour cream
  • 3 large eggs
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1/3 cup light brown sugar
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon
  • 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup heavy cream
  • 1 cup powdered sugar
  • 2 tablespoons milk

Instructions

  1. Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C) and grease a 9-inch springform pan.
  2. Mix graham cracker crumbs, 1/4 cup sugar, and melted butter; press firmly into the pan base.
  3. In a large bowl, beat cream cheese and 1 cup sugar until smooth. Add sour cream and vanilla; blend well.
  4. Add eggs one at a time, mixing gently after each.
  5. In a separate bowl, mix brown sugar, cinnamon, and flour.
  6. Pour half the cheesecake batter over the crust. Sprinkle half the cinnamon mixture. Repeat layers.
  7. Swirl gently with a knife for a marbled effect.
  8. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is nearly set.
  9. Cool to room temperature, then chill for at least 4 hours.
  10. For glaze, whisk powdered sugar with milk and drizzle over chilled cheesecake before serving.

Notes

For a gluten-free version, use gluten-free graham crackers and flour. Substitute Greek yogurt for sour cream, or use reduced-fat cream cheese for a lighter option. Cheesecake can be made a day ahead and kept covered in the refrigerator for up to four days. To freeze, wrap tightly and store for up to two months. If cracked, cover with extra glaze. Ensure all ingredients are at room temperature for a smoother filling.
