For the cookie base and topping:
  • ½ cup non-dairy butter melted
  • ⅓ cup brown sugar
  • ¼ cup honey
  • 1 egg
  • 1 egg yolk
  • splash of vanilla extract
  • 2 cup gluten-free flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • ½ teaspoon baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon cinnamon

For the cheesecake filling:
  • 8 oz. non-dairy cream cheese softened
  • 3 tablespoon sugar

  • 2 teaspoon cinnamon

Method
 

  1. Preheat oven to 350℉ and line an 8x8 pan with parchment paper.
  2. In a bowl, mix together all of the cookie ingredients until you have a smooth cookie dough. Add the milk as needed to achieve a cookie dough consistency.
  3. Press ⅔ of this dough into the prepared pan.
  4. In a bowl, whip together the cream cheese and sugar until fluffy. Spread this evenly over the cookie base. Sprinkle the cinnamon sugar over top of the cheesecake filling.
  5. Crumble the remaining ⅓ of dough over top of the cheesecake and cinnamon. Bake for about 30-35 minutes. Let cool before slicing and enjoying!
