Easy Sopapilla Cheesecake Recipe

Definition: Warm scrumptiously delicious slice of heaven

I’ve been making a lot of gooey yummy chocolatey treats around here lately so this week Matt requested something different. He loves cheesecake so I decided on a Sopapilla Cheesecake.

The warm scrumptious layer of sweet cream cheese in the center in contrast to the flaky dough is just amazing.

This treat never lasts more than a day in our house. That has nothing to do with the fact that I eat it as a breakfast danish, nothing at all.

Just wait till you see the final product picture, you will understand why this dessert never lasts more than a day around here. It’s that good.
