Instructions

Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Prepare the sugar cookie crust by mixing all crust ingredients until combined and press into the bottom of a springform pan.
Prepare cookie dough balls by combining ingredients and forming small balls. Set aside ⅔ for cheesecake filling.
For cheesecake filling, beat cream cheese and sugar until smooth. Add sour cream/Greek yogurt, heavy cream, and vanilla, then eggs one at a time. Fold in reserved cookie dough balls.
Pour filling over prepared crust and bake for 50–60 minutes until center is set. Let cool completely.
Prepare white chocolate ganache by melting chocolate chips with heavy cream until smooth. Drizzle over cooled cheesecake.
Refrigerate for at least 4 hours before slicing and serving. Garnish with extra sprinkles if desired.

Notes

Make ahead for holidays or special occasions; flavors meld beautifully when chilled overnight.
Swap white chocolate ganache for milk or dark chocolate if desired.
Leftovers keep in the fridge for 4–5 days.
