Ingredients
For the Cinnamon Roll Base:
- 1 can (8 count) refrigerated cinnamon rolls (with icing packet)
- Butter or nonstick spray (for greasing)
For the Cheesecake Filling:
- 2 (8 oz) packages cream cheese, softened
- ½ cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- ¼ cup sour cream
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
Optional Topping:
- The icing from the cinnamon roll can
- Whipped cream or powdered sugar
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan or round cake pan.
- Press cinnamon rolls into the bottom and up the sides of the prepared pan to form a crust. Lightly press them together to seal any gaps.
- In a blender, combine cream cheese, sugar, eggs, vanilla, sour cream, and cinnamon. Blend until completely smooth and creamy.
- Pour the cheesecake mixture over the cinnamon roll crust and smooth the top.
- Bake for 35–40 minutes, or until the center is just set and the edges are slightly golden. Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 3 hours (or overnight).
- Before serving, drizzle with reserved icing and top with optional whipped cream.
