Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 4h15m

Yield about 24

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 1/2 sticks (12 tablespoons) unsalted butter, melted, plus more for the pan
3 cups butter cracker crumbs (such as Ritz; about 3 sleeves)
1/4 cup sugar
24 ounces cream cheese, at room temperature
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1/4 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 cup smooth peanut butter
Red sprinkles, for decorating

Steps:

  • Make the crust: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Butter a 9-by-13-inch baking dish. Line with foil, leaving a 2-inch overhang on the long sides; butter the foil. Combine the cracker crumbs, melted butter and sugar in a bowl. Press evenly into the bottom of the prepared pan. Bake until toasted, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a rack and let cool 15 minutes.
  • Make the filling: Beat the cream cheese and sugar in a large bowl with a mixer on medium-high speed until smooth, about 1 minute. Add the eggs, sour cream and vanilla and beat until combined, 1 minute. Remove 1 cup of the batter to a medium bowl and stir in the peanut butter until smooth. Pour the peanut butter batter onto the crust in a thin even layer. Pour the remaining cheesecake batter on top; smooth with a spatula.
  • Bake until the cheesecake is set around the edges but still jiggly in the center, about 30 minutes. Transfer to a rack to cool completely, about 1 hour. Refrigerate until set, at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • Slide an offset spatula or paring knife around the edge of the pan, then remove the cheesecake using the foil overhang. Slice into squares and top with sprinkles.
