I recently made a Chocolate Chip Cookie Cheesecake, and we were all in love with it! I decided that I may be onto something, and I am determined to make every delicious cookie flavored cheesecake that I can think of. Today’s project was a Snickerdoodle Cookie Cheesecake, and let me just tell you – the results DID NOT disappoint! This is a sweet and creamy cheesecake on top of a soft snickerdoodle cookie crust and topped with cinnamon-sugar. I hope you love it!
Here are some tips for making my Snickerdoodle Cookie Cheesecake:
- You can change this up with your favorite homemade or packaged cookie dough. I recently made a chocolate chip cookie version of this, and it was amazing! I always prefer homemade, but you can do what works for you!
- This recipe can definitely be cut in half if you don’t need so much. TO do this, just make it in an 8×8 dish rather than a 13×9.
- This recipe could also be frozen for later. To do this, allow it to cool completely in an airtight container in the refrigerator before moving it to the freezer for up to 3 months.

These are the ingredients that you will need for this cinnamon-sugar dessert:
- Butter
- Granulated sugar
- Eggs
- Vanilla extract
- All purpose flour
- Cream of tartar
- Baking soda
- Salt
- Ground cinnamon
- Cream cheese
