  • Minimal washing up: One mixing bowl for the filling, done. No countless bowls and mixers.
  • Fantastic texture: Creamy and soft inside, crispy and caramelized outside.
  • Much easier than churros: No frying, no splatters, no fuss.
  • Ideal for guests: Can be sliced into squares – perfect for sharing.
  • Surprising flavor: The cinnamon butter crust is simply irresistible.

It’s exactly the kind of recipe that looks much more elaborate than it actually is ... and that’s always a plus 😉.

Ingredients 📝

  • 🥐 2 sheets puff pastry or chilled croissant dough
  • 🧀 450 g cream cheese (2 x 225 g), room temperature
  • 🍬 200 g sugar
  • 🍦 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 🍬 100 g sugar (for topping)
  • 🌿 1 tbsp cinnamon
  • 🧈 60 g butter, melted

Note: Puff pastry yields a crispier result, croissant dough makes it a bit airier and softer. For a gluten-free version, use suitable dough and ensure the cream cheese is gluten-free.

Equipment and Preparation 🔧

You need:

  • Thermomix
  • Rectangular baking pan (23 x 33 cm)
  • Spatula
  • Basting brush
  • Small bowl for the cinnamon sugar mixture

Preparation:

Take the cream cheese out of the fridge at least 30 minutes before – this makes the filling especially smooth. Preheat oven to 175 °C and lightly grease the pan.

Melt the butter and prepare sugar and cinnamon before placing the top layer. This way you can work quickly and the dough won’t dry out.

Step-by-Step Instructions 👩‍🍳

1 Preheat oven to 175 °C. Lightly grease baking pan.
2 Place one sheet of dough into the pan and press well into the corners.
3 Add cream cheese, 200 g sugar and vanilla into the mixing bowl. Mix 20 seconds at speed 4. Scrape down with spatula and mix again 10 seconds at speed 4 until a smooth cream forms.
4 Spread filling evenly on the dough base.
5 Place second sheet of dough on top and press the edges lightly together.
6 Mix 100 g sugar with cinnamon. Brush the surface with melted butter and generously sprinkle with the cinnamon sugar mixture.
7 Bake for 30–35 minutes until the surface is golden brown and gently bubbling.
8 Let cool completely and then chill in the fridge for at least 2 hours before cutting.
