What You Need To Make This Blender Cinnamon Roll Cheesecake Bars Recipe?
Graham Cracker Crumbs: For the graham cracker crumbs it’s best to go for finely ground ones to achieve a consistent consistent crust. If you’re feeling adventurous you can even make your own by using a food processor to pulse graham crackers. This not only allows you to control the texture but also adds a homemade touch, to your dessert.
Light Brown Sugar: When it comes to the sugar its molasses brings a delightful depth of flavor to the crust beautifully complementing the cinnamon swirl. Make sure that the brown sugar is fresh and soft so that there are no clumps.
Unsalted Butter: Using unsalted butter in both the crust and cinnamon swirl gives you control over the saltiness of your dessert ensuring it’s just right. It’s important that the butter is fully melted and slightly cooled before using.
Salt: A little bit of salt goes a long way! Salt enhances the flavors in the crust creating a balance against its sweetness.
Cream Cheese: Cream cheese takes the stage! To achieve that creamy texture in your cheesecake layer make sure your cream cheese is, at room temperature.
White Granulated Sugar: White granulated sugar seamlessly dissolves into the cream cheese resulting in a flawless filling.
Eggs: Room-temperature eggs blend evenly into the mixture contributing to that velvety texture of the cheesecake.
Cream Cheese: It also contributes to the creamy texture. Using it at room temperature like the eggs ensures a creamy blend.
Vanilla extract: Adding a touch of vanilla enhances the flavor of the cheesecake giving it a sweetness and depth.
Melted butter (for cinnamon swirl): When combined with sugar and cinnamon it creates a gooey and delightful swirl that infuses the cheesecake with the essence of a cinnamon roll.
Dark brown sugar: The rich molasses content in sugar adds an extra layer of flavor to the cinnamon swirl intensifying the experience of a cinnamon roll.
Ground cinnamon: This is the spice that transforms this cheesecake into a cinnamon roll fantasy. Adjust the amount to your preference but remember that even a small quantity goes a long way!
All-purpose flour: It helps thicken the mixture, for the cinnamon swirl ensuring that it maintains its shape as it bakes within each layer of cheesecake.
