Cinnamon Swirl Cheesecake Recipe
This Cinnamon Swirl Cheesecake Recipe is super easy, and extremely enjoyable. Whether you enjoy the simple and classic cheesecake variety, or you prefer a more chocolatey or fruity variety, this cheesecake acts as a great base for whatever your favorite topping is. My two recommendations for making a cheesecake “look the best”, are to make sure that the cream cheese is properly softened before adding the other ingredients. Also be sure to thoroughly chill your cheesecake before serving.
The best way to know that your cheesecake is “done”, is to take it out of the oven at the point when the center is still slightly “jiggly”. The cheesecake will continue cooking in the pan once it is out of the oven, so try not to overcook it. Also, once the cheesecake sets in the refrigerator for several hours, it will also firm up more.
The reason I enjoy cheesecake so much is because of its simplicity, but also the texture and sweet and creamy flavor. This cheesecake is very versatile, so be sure to spruce it up according to your needs and wishes.
This cinnamon swirl cheesecake is delicious! This recipe can also be topped with candied cherries, blueberries, or strawberries. I also enjoy topping cheesecakes with Nutella.
