First, if you "Google" "creme brulee cheesecake", you can easily find a couple of recipes.

Second, if you look at these recipes, then think about what a cheesecake is (a custard), then you know that you've really known the recipe all along.

Creme Brulee is eggs, sugar, vanilla, and cream. Basically just a simple custard with a nice, crackly, burned top. The burned top is what makes a brulee a brulee (duh).
What is cheesecake but a custard with cream cheese in it? You can make any "plain" cheesecake, then simply sugar the top and either torch or broil it right before serving time......and voila.......Creme Brulee Cheesecake.....there you go.
