Instructions
Preparation
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare a 9-inch springform pan by greasing it lightly.
- Roll out the cinnamon roll dough into a large rectangle on a lightly floured surface. Cut strips if using dough from a can or break apart into sections if using prepared dough.
- Arrange the dough to fit the bottom of the prepared springform pan, pressing it down to create an even layer. This will be your crust.
- In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with an electric mixer until smooth.
- Gradually add in the granulated sugar and brown sugar, mixing until well combined.
- Add the eggs one at a time, mixing continuously. Then, mix in the vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and sour cream until the mixture is creamy and blended.
- Pour the cheesecake filling over the cinnamon roll crust evenly.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the heavy cream and flour until smooth to create a drizzle. Gently swirl this mixture into the cheesecake filling for added flavor.
Baking
- Bake in the preheated oven for 40-50 minutes, or until the center is set and the edges have a light golden hue.
- Once baked, turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door slightly ajar for about an hour.
- Remove the cheesecake from the oven and place it in the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, before serving.

Notes
When serving, slice with a sharp knife for clean edges. Consider toppings like whipped cream, chopped nuts, or fresh fruits for added flavor. For best results, ensure all ingredients are at room temperature and chill the cheesecake fully before serving.
