INSTRUCTIONS
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees and line an 8×8 inch pan with foil and lightly grease the foil. Set aside.
- In a blender or food processor pulse cookies until fine crumbs form. Add melted butter and pulse a few times until crumbs are moistened from the butter. Transfer mixture to prepared pan and press crumbs into the bottom of the pan to form an even crust. Bake for 10 minutes.
- Mix egg, sugar, and vanilla until light and foamy. Add cream cheese and mix until smooth. Poor over baked crust. Return to oven for about 20 minutes or until cheesecake is set. Allow to cool on a wire rack.
