  • 24 oz Cream cheese, room temperature
  • 3/4 cup White granulated sugar
  • 1 TBSP Vanilla bean paste
  • 1/2 cup Sour cream, room temperature or greek yogurt

  • 1 tsp Vanilla bean paste
  • 1 cup Heavy cream

Instructions

  1. Preheat the oven to 325℉. Spray a 9-inch springform pan with baking nonstick spray and line the bottom with a circle of parchment paper, spraying again.
  2. Blend the Nilla Wafers into a fine crumb using a food processor. In a small bowl, combine the crumb with melted butter and mix.

  4. Bake the crust for 11 minutes.
