Instructions

Follow these steps to create your Simple Churro Cheesecake for Parties with ease:

1. Preheat the Oven: Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C). Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by greasing it lightly.
2. Make the Crust: In a mixing bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter. Mix until well combined. Press this mixture into the bottom of the prepared pan to form an even layer.
3. Bake the Crust: Bake the crust for 10 minutes, then remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly while you prepare the filling.
4. Prepare the Cheesecake Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the sugar and vanilla, mixing until combined.
5. Add Eggs: Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Be careful not to overmix; just blend until smooth.
6. Incorporate Cinnamon and Sour Cream: Stir in the ground cinnamon and sour cream until fully combined, ensuring a smooth mixture.
7. Fill the Pan: Pour the cheesecake batter into the cooled crust, smoothing the top with a spatula.
8. Bake the Cheesecake: Bake for 45 minutes or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly (it will firm up as it cools).
9. Cool the Cheesecake: Once baked, turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar for about 30 minutes.
10. Refrigerate: After cooling, remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool completely at room temperature. Once cool, refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight to set fully.
11. Prepare the Topping: In a small bowl, combine the granulated sugar and ground cinnamon for the topping.
12. Serve: Once chilled and set, remove the cheesecake from the springform pan. Sprinkle the cinnamon-sugar mixture over the top and serve slices with whipped cream, and optionally, a drizzle of chocolate sauce for an extra special touch.

These steps will lead you to a delightful, unforgettable dessert that’s wonderful for any gathering!
