Yield: 12 cupcakes

 

This recipe is from the Mehadrin Shavuos Cookbook.

Ingredients

Crust

  • 1 packet cinnamon graham crackers, crushed

  • 4 tablespoons Mehadrin Butter, melted

Cheesecake Filling

Cinnamon Sugar

  • 1 and 1/2 tablespoons ground cinnamon

  • 1/4 cup sugar

Frosting

  • 3 tablespoons Mehadrin Butter

  • 1/2 cup + 2 tablespoons powdered sugar

  • 1/4 teaspoon vanilla extract

  • 1/2 tablespoon milk

Directions

Prepare the Crust

1.

Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit. Add cupcake liners to a cupcake pan for 12.

2.

Combine the graham crumbs with melted butter. Add one and a half tablespoons of crumbs into each cupcake liner and press into the bottoms.

3.

Bake the crusts for five minutes and allow to cool. Reduce oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit.

Prepare the Cheesecake Filling

1.

In a large bowl, beat the cream cheese, sugar, flour, and cinnamon at a low speed until combined. (Scrape down the sides of the bowl when necessary.) Add the sour cream, vanilla, and eggs (one at a time) and beat until smooth. Set aside.

Prepare the Cinnamon Sugar

1.

Combine the cinnamon and sugar for the cinnamon sugar filling.

Assemble and Bake

1.

Add a heaping tablespoon of cheese filling into each cupcake, then sprinkle cinnamon sugar to fully cover the filling. Repeat layering two more times. The cupcakes should be mostly full.

2.

Bake for 18 minutes. Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecakes inside.

3.

Prop the oven door open slightly and allow cheese-cakes to cool for 15 to 20 minutes. When cheesecakes are completely cooled, remove the cupcake liners.

Prepare the Frosting

1.

Mix the butter, powdered sugar, vanilla, and milk until smooth.

2.

Add the frosting to a piping bag fitted with a small round piping tip (or a ziplock bag with the corner cut off) and pipe a swirl of frosting onto each cheesecake.
