Ingredients:
Crust:
- 1 package (12 ounces) King’s Hawaiian sweet rolls
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, melted
Filling:
- 24 ounces (3 packages) cream cheese, softened
- 1 cup granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon almond extract
- 4 large eggs
- 1 cup sour cream
Instructions:
- Prepare Crust:
- Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch springform pan.
- In a food processor, pulse the King’s Hawaiian sweet rolls until they form fine crumbs. You should have about 2 cups of crumbs.
- In a medium bowl, combine the crumbs and melted butter. Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of the prepared pan to form an even crust.
- Bake Crust:
- Bake the crust in the preheated oven for 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and let it cool while preparing the filling.
- Prepare Filling:
- In a large mixing bowl, beat the softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the sugar, beating until well combined.
- Add the vanilla extract and almond extract, mixing until incorporated.
- Add the eggs one at a time, beating well after each addition. Finally, fold in the sour cream until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
- Assemble and Bake:
- Pour the filling over the cooled crust in the springform pan.
- Bake in the preheated oven for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly. The top should be lightly golden.
- Cool and Chill:
- Remove the cheesecake from the oven and let it cool to room temperature. Once cooled, cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight, to allow it to set fully.
- Serve:
- Run a knife around the edge of the pan before removing the sides of the springform pan. Slice and serve chilled. Enjoy!
