Baking Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan and press the crust mixture into the bottom; bake for 10 minutes and cool.
  • In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, cinnamon, flour, and melted butter to make the cinnamon swirl.
  • In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth, then add sugar, eggs, sour cream, and vanilla until creamy and lump-free.
  • Pour half the cheesecake batter over the cooled crust, then gently dollop half the cinnamon swirl over the top; use a knife to swirl.
  • Pour remaining batter and swirl remaining cinnamon mixture on top.
  • Wrap pan bottom with foil and place in a larger roasting pan; add hot water halfway up the sides and bake for 60–75 minutes until edges are set and center jiggles slightly.
  • Let cheesecake cool in the oven with the door cracked for about 30 minutes. Then refrigerate at least 6 hours or overnight to set.
  • If using glaze: whisk powdered sugar, milk, and vanilla until smooth; drizzle over chilled cheesecake before serving.

Notes

Chilling the cheesecake overnight will enhance the flavors and texture.
