Years ago, I attended a women’s bible study (or book club) at a church we were attending in St. Louis.  Someone brought dessert and it was amazing…  the whole group asked for the recipe.  Within a week or so, this Sopapilla Cheesecake recipe hit my Inbox!  A spinoff of the traditional Spanish Sopapilla, this dessert is going to be a new favorite.

I did what most women do, printed the recipe off and added it to my recipe binder.  Would you believe that I never made it?  A dessert recipe that melted in my mouth and had me wanting all-things cheesecake was forgotten.  Yep, the recipe was tucked away in a dark cabinet for 7-8 years, then packed up into a box and relocated before it was discovered once again.

A few weeks ago, we had a family dinner at our house.  I wanted to make a dessert I hadn’t made for them before.  Ya know, something new.  This Sopapilla Cheesecake recipe jumped off the pages and, friends, it did not disappoint.

The whole family flipped out…. and my brother was sure to mention that I could make this anytime we got together.  Giggle.  In my mind, a recipe was reborn and I scored with a yummy dessert.

And I love me some cheesecake! #nomnomnom "Because you don't live by a bakery, doesn't mean you can't have cheesecake." -Hedy LemarrI’m sure this recipe (or something similar) has probably been shared a gazillion times on the web, but I’ve never shared it.  So, here we go…

WARNING:  If you like cream cheese, it will take a great deal of discipline not to eat the bowl of filling before placing into the baking dish.  Oh my goodness — sooooooo good! You’ve been warned (wink).

    This has a lot of sugar in it: 2 tbsp plus the 1 cup of sugar and the hone and the refined flour from the rolls.
    Is all this sweetener necessary? I’d like to make it for my family but need to reduce the refined sugars. How much of the sugar and honey can be reduced?

      Hi Collee. I’m sure you can cut back on the sugar sprinkled on the top, but it will effect the taste. Feel free to revise at your discretion. 😉

      I don’t know why you couldn’t half the amount of sugar to A half cup and substitute Stevtia to taste and then sprinkle a little sugar on top with cinnamon.

    I made this a day ahead. Would you recommend re-heating before serving, serving room temp or cold?

      Hi Jane. I’ve eaten both ways — cold and warmed. I prefer it a little warm, and I’ve added a scoop of vanilla ice cream on occasion too. Why not splurge, right? ENJOY!!
