Step-by-Step Instructions for Mini Cinnamon Roll Cheesecakes
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (162°C) and line a cupcake pan with cupcake liners.
- In a medium bowl, combine vanilla wafer cookie crumbs, sugar, ground cinnamon, and melted butter until the mixture resembles wet sand. Press firmly into cupcake cups and bake for 5 minutes.
- Lower the oven to 300°F (148°C). Beat the cream cheese until smooth, then add sugar, flour, and ground cinnamon, mixing until blended. Add sour cream and vanilla extract.
- With the mixer on low, add eggs one at a time, mixing until incorporated, being careful not to overmix.
- Combine remaining sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Layer cheesecake batter in crusts, sprinkle cinnamon sugar in between layers.
- Bake for 15-17 minutes until edges are set with a jiggle in the center. Let cool in the oven for 20 minutes, then transfer to a rack.
- Refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving to allow flavors to meld.

Notes
Ensure cream cheese is at room temperature and mix gently to avoid cracks. Chill properly before serving for best texture.
