Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 2 cups of gluten-free Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal, crushed
- 1/4 cup of granulated sugar
- 1/2 cup of unsalted butter, melted
- 24 oz of cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup of granulated sugar
- 3 eggs
- 1 tsp of vanilla extract
- 1/2 cup of sour cream
- 1/4 cup of heavy cream

Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 325°F. Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a bowl, mix together 2 cups of crushed gluten-free Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal, 1/4 cup of sugar, and melted butter until well combined.
- Press the mixture into the bottom of the prepared springform pan to form the crust. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let it cool.
- In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese and 1 cup of sugar until smooth. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in the vanilla extract, sour cream, and heavy cream until fully combined.
- Pour the cream cheese mixture over the cooled crust. Tap the pan on the counter to release any air bubbles. Sprinkle 1/4 cup of gluten-free Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal on top.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 55-60 minutes, or until the edges are set and the center is slightly jiggly.
- Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door ajar for 1 hour.
- Remove the cheesecake from the oven and run a knife around the edges to loosen. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, before serving.
