Instructions
Prepare the Crust:
Preheat oven to 325°F (163°C).
In a bowl, mix graham cracker crumbs, brown sugar, and cinnamon. Add melted butter and combine.
Press the mixture into the bottom of a greased 9-inch springform pan.
Bake for 10 minutes and set aside to cool.
Make the Cinnamon Roll Swirl:
In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, flour, and cinnamon. Stir in melted butter to create a thick paste. Set aside.
Prepare the Cheesecake Batter:
In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth.
Gradually add brown sugar, granulated sugar, and sour cream, mixing well.
Add the eggs one at a time, mixing until incorporated. Finally, mix in the vanilla extract and salt.
Layer and Bake the Cheesecake:
Pour half of the cheesecake batter over the crust.
Drop spoonfuls of half of the cinnamon swirl mixture over the batter and swirl gently with a knife.
Add the remaining batter on top, then add the rest of the cinnamon swirl, swirling again with a knife.
Place the springform pan in a water bath and bake at 325°F (163°C) for 60-75 minutes.
Turn off the oven, crack the door open, and let the cheesecake cool for 1 hour. Then refrigerate for at least 6 hours.
Make the Cream Cheese Frosting:
In a medium bowl, beat cream cheese with powdered sugar until smooth.
Gradually mix in the heavy cream and vanilla extract until soft peaks form.
