Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cheesecake with Strawberry Compote
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 2 cups of Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal, crushed
- 1/4 cup of unsalted butter, melted
- 24 oz of cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup of granulated sugar
- 1 tsp of vanilla extract
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup of sour cream
- 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour
- 2 cups of fresh strawberries, hulled and sliced
- 1/4 cup of granulated sugar
- 1 tbsp of lemon juice
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 350°F (175°C).
- In a medium bowl, combine 2 cups of crushed Cinnamon Toast Crunch cereal with 1/4 cup of melted unsalted butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes, then remove from the oven and let it cool.
- In a large bowl, beat 24 oz of softened cream cheese with 1 cup of granulated sugar and 1 tsp of vanilla extract until smooth. Add 4 large eggs, one at a time, mixing well after each addition. Stir in 1 cup of sour cream and 1/4 cup of all-purpose flour until combined. Pour the mixture over the cooled crust.
- Bake the cheesecake in the preheated oven for 45-50 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 from the oven and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- In a saucepan, combine 2 cups of sliced fresh strawberries, 1/4 cup of granulated sugar, and 1 tbsp of lemon juice. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the strawberries break down and the mixture thickens, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and let it cool.
- To serve, slice the cheesecake and spoon the strawberry compote over the top. Enjoy!
