Can you imagine combining the crispy texture and cinnamon aroma of freshly baked churros with the velvety creaminess of a cheesecake? 🤤 Stop dreaming, because this Churros Cheesecake with Thermomix is exactly that ... and I promise, once you try it, it will become one of your favorite desserts.
Perfect when you are looking for something special, eye-catching, and surprising. You don’t need complicated techniques or fancy ingredients. It bakes in less than an hour, and after a good chilling time you get a real highlight: crispy layers, creamy filling, and that cinnamon sugar topping that smells like a fairground and cozy Sunday 🧡.
The first time I baked it for a family coffee gathering – not a single crumb was left. Since then, I’m asked for the recipe every time. And today I’m sharing it step by step with you, so it turns out perfect on your first try.
It’s exactly the kind of recipe that looks much more elaborate than it actually is ... and that’s always a plus 😉.
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.
You need:
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.
Serve cold and cut into even squares. Sprinkle a little extra cinnamon just before serving. Perfect with coffee, hot chocolate, or a scoop of vanilla ice cream 🍨.
🥡 Airtight in the fridge up to 4–5 days.
❄️ Can be frozen in portions up to 1 month.
♨️ Best enjoyed cold or let temper 10 minutes before serving.
Use only one dough sheet?
Not recommended – the crispy top layer will be missing.
Possible in round pan?
Yes, just adjust baking time slightly.
Prepare a day ahead?
Yes, it tastes even better after resting.
Too sweet?
Balanced, but sugar can be slightly reduced.
Without Thermomix?

This Churros Cheesecake with Thermomix delights from the first bite: crispy on the outside, creamy inside, with that unmistakable cinnamon aroma 💛.
