Ingredients

  • Crust:
  • 1 cup graham cracker crumbs 🍪

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted 🧈

  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar 🍬

  • Cheesecake Filling:
  • 16 oz cream cheese, softened 🧀

  • 1 cup sour cream 🥛

  • 3/4 cup granulated sugar 🍬

  • 3 large eggs 🥚

  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 🌿

  • Baklava Topping:
  • 1 cup chopped walnuts or pistachios 🥜

  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon 🌟

  • 1/2 cup honey 🍯

  • 1/4 cup water 💧

  • 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted 🧈

Directions

  • Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C). 🔥
  • In a bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and sugar. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form the crust. Bake for 10 minutes and then let it cool.
  • In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add the sour cream, eggs, and vanilla extract, mixing until fully combined. 🥄
  • Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust and smooth the top. Bake for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.
  • While the cheesecake is baking, prepare the baklava topping. In a saucepan, combine honey, water, and ground cinnamon. Bring to a simmer and let it thicken for about 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the chopped nuts and melted butter. 🍯
  • Once the cheesecake is done, remove it from the oven and let it cool completely before chilling it in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
  • Before serving, spread the baklava topping evenly over the chilled cheesecake.
