SUGAR COOKIE CHEESECAKE BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°
• Prepare baking dish with non-stick spray
• In a mixing bowl, combine the cream cheese, vanilla extract, and egg mixing on slow speed. Some people have said they like to sweeten this mixture up with a little powdered sugar - but that is completely optional.*Note: The cream cheese mixture will be chunky if the cream cheese is too cold. If this happens, fill your sink with a couple inches of hot water and place the bowl in the bath of hot water. This warm water should help bring the cream cheese chunks to room temperature to make a creamy mixture
• Cut the roll of sugar cookie dough in 1/2
• Press half of the sugar cookie dough to the bottom of the baking dish for the "curst"
• Pour the cream cheesecake mixture over the sugar cookie crust
• Using the remaining 1/2 roll of sugar cookie dough, create flattened "chunks" of dough and place them evenly over the top of the cheesecake mixture.*These will melt, rise, and cover the top of the cream cheese bars as seen in the photos above!
• Bake for 30 minutes or just until the sugar cookie shows a golden color*Note: sugar cookies burn QUICKLY! It's best to pull them out of the oven right when they appear to be golden as opposed to burning the dough.
• Let cool for at least an hour. Add sprinkles once completely cooled. Cut into squares once cooled and serve!
