Sugar Cookie Cheesecake (Print Version)

# Ingredients:

01 - 24 ounces of cream cheese, softened.
02 - 1 cup of granulated sugar.
03 - 3 large eggs.
04 - 6 tablespoons of melted unsalted butter.
05 - 2 cups of crushed sugar cookies.
06 - 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract.
07 - 1/2 cup of sour cream.
08 - 1/3 cup of colorful holiday sprinkles.

# Instructions:

01 - Set your oven to 325°F. Coat a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray.
02 - Stir the melted butter into the cookie crumbs. Push the mixture into the base of the pan. Bake it for 8-10 minutes until it firms up and turns golden brown.
03 - Whip the cream cheese with sugar until creamy. Toss in the eggs, one after the other. Blend in the sour cream and vanilla.
04 - Stir the sprinkles gently into the batter. Pour it onto the cooled crust.
05 - Pop it in the oven for 50-60 minutes, just until the center looks like it’ll wobble. Switch off the oven, leave the door slightly open, and let it sit for an hour.
06 - Let it cool to room temperature. Put it in the fridge for at least 4 hours or overnight.
07 - Add whipped cream and extra sprinkles to the top before digging in.

# Notes:

01 - Chilling it overnight gives the best texture.
02 - Feel free to use store-bought or homemade cookies.
