Originating in Argentina, dulce de leche is a sweet caramel-like sauce that is widely popular around the world. It is typically made from milk, sugar, and vanilla, which are cooked down and reduced until the mixture is thick and dark brown. This rich sauce is often used as a topping or filling for desserts, and today we are using it as the star ingredient in a decadent cheesecake! By combining the creamy dulce de leche with a smooth and velvety cheesecake filling, we create a dessert that is both rich and indulgent. This dessert is perfect for any special occasion or celebration, so why not give it a try?

Instructions

1.Preheat the oven to 325°F.
2.In a large saucepan, bring the milk, sugar, baking soda, and cinnamon to a boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer for about 1 hour and 30 minutes or until the mixture thickens and turns caramel in color, stirring occasionally.
3.Take off from heat and let it cool.
4.Beat the cream cheese in a large bowl until smooth. Then beat in the eggs, one by one, until incorporated.
5.Add in the vanilla and heavy cream. Mix until well combined.
6.Stir in the dulce de leche until well incorporated.
7.Pour the cheesecake mixture over the cooled crust in a 9x13 inch baking pan. Smooth out the surface with a spatula.
8.Bake for 45-50 minutes or until the cheesecake is set around the edges but still slightly jiggly in the center.
9.Turn off the oven, crack open the door, and let the cheesecake cool down in the oven.
