Instructions

Creating Churro Cheesecake Bars involves just a few steps to guide you toward deliciousness:

  1. Preheat Oven: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8×8-inch baking dish.
  2. Prepare the Crust: In a mixing bowl, whisk together flour, melted butter, sugar, salt, and cinnamon until you have a uniform mixture. Press the crust mixture evenly into the bottom of the prepared baking dish.
  3. Bake Crust: Place the crust in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes, or until lightly golden.
  4. Make Cheesecake Layer: In another bowl, beat the softened cream cheese with sugar until smooth. Add the egg and vanilla extract, mixing until well incorporated.
  5. Spread Cheesecake Mixture: Pour the cheesecake mixture over the baked crust, spreading evenly with a spatula.
  6. Bake Again: Return to the oven and bake for 20-25 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.
  7. Cool: Once out of the oven, allow the bars to cool at room temperature for about an hour, then refrigerate for an additional hour.
  8. Prepare Topping: Mix together the sugar and cinnamon in a small bowl.
  9. Add Topping: Once the bars are cool, sprinkle the cinnamon sugar mixture over the top.
  10. Slice and Serve: Cut into squares for serving.
