I love me some chocolate but I have to admit, I’ll take a blondie over a brownie any day. And when you combine the blondie with my favorite cookie, Snickerdoodles, it can’t be beat. Now, if that wasn’t enough goodness, the creaminess of cheesecake layer makes it impossible to resist!
How to make Cheesecake Snickerdoodle Blondies
- You start with a base of Snickerdoodle cookie.
- Sprinkle cinnamon and sugar over the batter.
- Add the layer of cheesecake like filling.
- Top with remaining Snickerdoodle cookie dough. Be sure and check out the video below for step by step process.
- A final sprinkling of cinnamon sugar on the top before it goes in the oven makes sure you have plenty of that Snickerdoodle flavor.
- Bake at 350 degrees F. for 30-40 minutes.
- After removing them from the oven, let the bars chill before cutting.
Make sure to store any leftover blondies in the refrigerator.

This looks delicious, thank you for sharing!

The recipe mentions the butter should be melted but based on the instructions it says it should be beat with the sugars until fluffy….it also sounds like it should be more of a dough than batter. Did you mean for the butter to be softened instead of melted?
Leigh Anne says
yes, it should be softened, sorry about that!
Jan says
These were a total success! They were gone! Followed the recipe exactly using a glass 13×9 greased dish. Used 1/3 fat cream cheese bars and it set well. It had just the right amount of cinnamon. Thanx!
Linda Kallio says
Can the snickerdoodles be frozen?
Leigh Anne says
I haven’t frozen them but should work fine.
Jessica Walden says
I just made these but I was out of butter and eggs so I substituded 2 T. Of mayo for the eggs and coconut oil for the butter. The oil made the batch more dry but I decided to use it on top of the cream cheese and made another oily batch for the bottom layer. It was really good! The kids and everyone loved it.

HI, the snickerdoodle recipe portion is confusing:
Snickerdoodle Dough
Mix together flour, baking soda, cinnamon and salt in a bowl.
In another bowl beat butter, sugar and brown sugar until fluffy.
Add in eggs and vanilla and mix until combined.
Add in flour mixture and mix just until combined.
so, it sounds like you mix it ALL together? the eggs and vanilla are already in the cheesecake mix? This is s very confusing recipe…I am stuck while trying to make it.
Leigh Anne says
Amanda, I have added in a divider for the cream cheese layer to hopefully make it easier to understand.
McKinzi says
I made these today and they were amazing. My husband claimed they were in the top 3 desserts I’ve ever baked. Thanks for the recipe!
Leigh Anne says
I love hearing that – thanks so much for letting me know!

Hi Leigh,
You say to add salt in the cream cheese filling instructions, but there is no salt in the ingredients list. You also include a teaspoon of cinnamon in the snicker doodle ingredients list but you never say when to add it in the instructions. I made guesses, but would be great if you could fix and update. Thanks for sharing the recipe!
