Ingredients
Crust
- 25 Golden Oreos (do not remove the filling)

Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350F (175C) and line a 13×9 metal pan with parchment paper (I like to use enough that it goes up the sides of the pan (this helps keep the cheesecake from cracking as the parchment will allow it to constrict as it cools).
- Place Golden Oreos in a food processor and process cookies into fine crumbs.
- Add melted butter, process until fully incorporated.
- Pour cookie crumbs into the bottom of prepared and tamp down into an even layer. Set aside.
- Using an electric mixer, cream together cream cheese and sugars until smooth and creamy. and sour cream until smooth.
- Add sour cream, cake mix, and vanilla extract and stir on low-speed until smooth, scraping down the sides with a spatula as needed to make sure all ingredients are well-combined.
- Add eggs, one at a time, stirring until just combined after each addition.
- Add colored sprinkles and stir quickly by hand until combined.
- Pour cheesecake batter evenly into prepared pan over crust.
- Bake at 350F for 35-40 minutes (center of cheesecake should be set).
