Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (160°C).
- Prepare the crust by pulsing digestive biscuits, cinnamon, and sugar in a food processor to form fine crumbs. Melt the butter and mix with the crumbs. Press into a 9-inch springform pan. Bake for 10 minutes and set aside.
- Mix dark brown sugar and cinnamon in a medium bowl for the cinnamon sugar mixture.
- Combine all-purpose flour and dark brown sugar for the crumble topping and mix in melted butter until crumbly.
- Mix cream cheese in a stand mixer until smooth. Gradually incorporate sugar, sour cream, and cornstarch, followed by eggs one at a time.
- Layer half the cheesecake batter over the cooled crust, sprinkle half the cinnamon sugar mixture, then pour the remaining batter on top.
- Sprinkle the crumble topping over the cheesecake.
- Set up a water bath by placing the springform pan in a larger baking dish with hot water up to two-thirds of the pan's height.
- Bake for 1 hour and 15-20 minutes or until slightly wobbly in the center.
- Turn off the oven, leave the door ajar, and cool the cheesecake inside for an hour.
- Chill the cheesecake in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or overnight.
