Description
A delicious and indulgent Cinnamon Roll Honeybun Cheesecake that combines the flavors of cinnamon rolls and cheesecake for a sweet treat.
Ingredients
Scale
- 2 cups cinnamon roll dough (store-bought or homemade)
- 1 cup cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 large eggs
- 1/2 cup honey
- 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/4 cup chopped pecans (optional)
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar (for dusting)
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 350°F. Grease a 9-inch springform pan with non-stick cooking spray.
- Roll out the cinnamon roll dough and cut it into small pieces. Press half of the dough pieces into the bottom of the prepared springform pan to form a crust.
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with granulated sugar until smooth. Add sour cream, vanilla extract, and eggs, mixing until well combined.
- In a separate bowl, mix honey, ground cinnamon, and brown sugar. Stir this mixture into the cream cheese mixture until fully incorporated.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture over the crust in the springform pan. Sprinkle the remaining cinnamon roll dough pieces on top, followed by the chopped pecans if using.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set and a toothpick inserted comes out clean.
- Allow the cheesecake to cool at room temperature for at least 30 minutes, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
- Before serving, dust the top with powdered sugar for an extra touch.
Notes
- For a richer flavor, try adding a splash of maple syrup to the cream cheese mixture.
- You can also substitute the pecans with walnuts or omit them entirely for a nut-free version.
