    Tips on How to Make Churro Cheesecake:

    • For an extra delicious and pretty flair, you can top it with berries that are in season.
    • Mix the cream cheese and mix just enough to get a fluffy and smooth texture. Over-beating it will make it flop and won’t give you enough yield.
    • If you love thick cheesecakes, you can add another layer using the same steps. Just make sure not to make it too thick since it would take a longer time to bake. Also, when adding another layer of the cheesecake, extend the baking time.
    • To check if the Churro cheesecake is ready to take out from the oven, insert a toothpick and when it comes out clean, then it is ready to be taken out.

    How to Make Churro Cheesecake:

    These are the ingredients that you will need:

    • Crescent dinner rolls
    • cream cheese
    • vanilla extract
    • egg
    • sugar

    Topping

    • sugar
    • ground cinnamon

    Preheat oven to 350F and prepare 9×13 inch pan.

    In a large bowl add the softened cream cheese. I like to mix this first before I add anything else because I’ve noticed there’s no lumps in the batter:

    Next add the vanilla extract, egg, sugar, and mix until it’s well combined:

    The cream cheese mixture will have this consistency. Once everything is mixed, set this bowl aside:

    In a 9×13 inch pan, take 1 can of the crescent and place it on the bottom of the pan, this will be the crust and make sure there’s no cracks:

    Next add the cream cheese batter and spread it evenly on the pan:

    Make sure to evenly spread the cream cheese mixture:

    To add the top crust layer, I found spreading the crescent on parchment paper first, and then slowly transferring to the cream cheese mixture made it easier and had a cleaner look.

    For the topping, I just mixed sugar and cinnamon:

    Before putting it in the oven, sprinkle with cinnamon and sugar mixture:

    Bake for 30-35 minutes and then remove from the oven and cool completely. Serve chilled.
