Disclosure: This Easter blog post is sponsored by World Market. All opinions are 100% mine.

I literally almost fell out of my seat when I realized that Easter is NEXT week. Good thing I have ALL of my Easter entertaining ready to go – thanks a BILLION to World Market – they totally saved me! Their selection of awesome-ness if unreal.

This delightful recipe was actually discovered by Handsome. I’d mentioned that I REALLY wanted cinnamon rolls but REALLY didn’t want to make them – yeast, bread, kneading? No thanks. I come home from work the next day, and lo and behold, he has FOUND a recipe (off of Pinterest) and is almost done. He apologized up and down that it wasn’t finished right when I got home, but let’s be honest – I was surprised.

The cake? It’s everything you’d want from a cinnamon roll in terms of flavor, but it’s a warm, delicious cake. SO. DANG. GOOD.

So as April came up (April means General Conference), I thought CINNAMON ROLLS, but again, my laziness and hatred of kneading dough emerged. AH YES! The cinnamon roll cake! Boom babe. But how could I kick it up a notch for my Easter Entertaining purposes?

WM5

The answer is ALWAYS cheesecake.

WM6

A cinnamon roll cake with a little cheesecake surprise in the middle? It had to be done.

WM7

And it was well. Gosh darn – it might even be up there on my new favorites list. It’s THAT good. Warm, gooey cinnamon roll cake with a sweet frosting on top and complimented perfectly with a straight-up cheesecake in the center.
