Ingredients
- Cinnamon Roll Base:
- 2 cans of cinnamon rolls (8-count, refrigerated)
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tsp cinnamon
- Cheesecake Layer:
- 16 oz cream cheese (softened)
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 cup sour cream
- 1/4 cup honey
- Cinnamon Sugar Swirl:
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tbsp ground cinnamon
- 1/4 cup melted butter
- Glaze:
- Icing from cinnamon roll cans (or homemade glaze with powdered sugar and milk)
- 2 tbsp honey for extra drizzle
Step-by-step Directions
1. Preheat Oven
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (175°C). Ensure to grease a 9-inch springform pan to prevent sticking.
2. Prepare the Cinnamon Roll Base
Flatten and press the cinnamon rolls into the bottom of the springform pan creating an even layer. Generously drizzle with melted butter, then sprinkle with a mixture of the brown sugar and cinnamon.
3. Make the Cheesecake Filling
In a large bowl, utilize a mixer to beat the softened cream cheese with sugar until smooth. Incorporate eggs one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each addition. Follow with vanilla, sour cream, and honey, mixing until well blended.
4. Add the Cinnamon Sugar Swirl
Combine brown sugar, cinnamon, and melted butter. Swirl this mixture over the prepared cheesecake filling to create a beautiful pattern.
5. Bake
Pour the cheesecake filling over the ready base and bake for about 45-50 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.
6. Cool & Glaze
Allow the cheesecake to cool for 10 minutes before top it with the glaze from the cinnamon roll cans, enhanced with an extra drizzle of honey for that authentic honeybun flavor. Cool the cheesecake completely then refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
