This Coffee Cake Cheesecake combines the rich creaminess of classic cheesecake with the warm, crumbly goodness of coffee cake toppings. Easy to prepare and perfect for dessert or a special brunch, it layers a moist cream cheese filling over a spiced coffee cake crust, topped with a buttery streusel for an irresistible treat.

Ingredients

Crust & Topping

  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1/4 tsp baking powder
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 6 tbsp unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/2 cup packed brown sugar

Cheesecake Filling

  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 2/3 cup granulated sugar
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup sour cream

Instructions

  1. Prepare the coffee cake base: In a medium bowl, combine flour, granulated sugar, cinnamon, baking powder, and salt. Stir in melted butter and brown sugar until crumbly. Press half of this mixture firmly into the bottom of a greased 9-inch springform pan to form the crust.
  2. Make the cheesecake filling: In a large bowl, beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Add granulated sugar and continue beating until well combined. Incorporate eggs one at a time, then mix in vanilla extract and sour cream until the batter is silky and smooth.
  3. Assemble the cheesecake: Pour the cream cheese filling over the prepared coffee cake crust in the springform pan. Evenly sprinkle the remaining crumb mixture over the top of the filling to create the coffee cake topping.
  4. Bake the cheesecake: Preheat the oven to 325°F (163°C). Bake the assembled cheesecake for 50-60 minutes or until the center is almost set but still slightly jiggly. Avoid overbaking to maintain creamy texture.
  5. Cool and chill: Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight, to allow it to set properly.
  6. Serve: Carefully remove the sides of the springform pan before slicing. Serve chilled and enjoy the delightful combination of creamy cheesecake and crumbly coffee cake topping.

Notes

  • Ensure the cream cheese is fully softened to avoid lumps in the batter.
  • Do not overbake; the cheesecake will firm up as it chills.
  • For cleaner slices, run a knife under hot water and wipe it dry before slicing.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 4 days.
  • You can add chopped nuts like pecans or walnuts to the crumb topping for extra texture.
