Baking Instructions
  1. Preheat the Oven: Set your oven to 350°F (175°C) to prepare for baking your delicious crust.
  2. Prepare the Crust: In a bowl, combine the sugar cookie mix, melted butter, and egg. Mix gently until well blended, then press this mixture into the bottom of a cheesecake pan.
  3. Bake the Crust: Place the pan in the preheated oven and bake for about 10-12 minutes or until the crust is lightly golden and set.
  4. Cool the Crust: Allow the crust to cool completely.
  5. Mix the Filling: In a large mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add the granulated sugar, eggs, and vanilla extract, mixing until creamy.
  6. Fill and Bake: Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled crust, spreading it evenly. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the filling is set with a gentle jiggle.
  7. Cool: Let the cheesecake cool to room temperature, then refrigerate overnight for best flavor.
  8. Serve: Just before serving, top with whipped cream and colorful jimmies sprinkles. Enjoy!
