- 1 1/2 tablespoons of vanilla extract

How to Make 5-Ingredient Sugar Cookie Cheesecake Bars ?
Start by preheating your oven to 350°F (180°C). Apply non-stick spray to an 8×8 (20x20cm) baking dish and set it aside.
In a large bowl, combine the egg, vanilla extract, and cream cheese with a hand mixer until well blended.
Divide the sugar cookie dough in half. Press one half into the bottom of the prepared baking dish to form an even layer.
Pour the cream cheese mixture over the sugar cookie base.
With the remaining cookie dough, create flat “chunks” and distribute them evenly over the cheesecake layer. These will sink, melt, and then rise to form the top crust.
Bake for 30 minutes or until the sugar cookie crust takes on a golden hue.
Allow the dessert to cool for at least an hour. Once completely cooled, scatter rainbow sprinkles on top.
Notes:
Make sure the cream cheese is at room temperature for this 5-Ingredient Cookie Cheesecake Bars recipe. It’s easier to blend and makes for a creamier cheesecake layer.
Whether for a special occasion or just because, these 5-Ingredient Cheesecake Bars are the sweet treat you’ve been looking for. Enjoy making them, and even more, enjoy every bite!
