Sopapilla Cheesecake Pie is very easy to make so don’t be shamed if you make it one day, eat the shit out of it and then make another a few days later. It is ok, you are still a good person and we can still be friends. Just maybe do something active for a few minutes a day if you eat this much cream cheese. Either way, it is inspired by the traditional Mexican dessert. The crunchy top is badass and the creamy filling is sweet as hell. Enjoy this sweet bastard!
