Preparation

  2. Gradually add the granulated sugar and vanilla extract, mixing until fully incorporated.
  3. Add the eggs, one at a time, ensuring each is fully blended before adding the next.
  4. Mix in the sour cream, then fold in the chopped Snickers and pink M&Ms.
Baking the Cheesecake
  1. Pour the filling over the crust in the springform pan.
  2. Bake in a preheated oven at 325°F (160°C) for about 55-65 minutes, or until the center is set but still slightly jiggly.
  3. Once baked, turn off the oven and crack the door, letting the cheesecake cool in the oven for one hour.
  4. Transfer the cheesecake to the fridge to chill completely for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Final Touches

Notes

For a crack-free cheesecake, avoid overbeating the eggs. Allow plenty of chilling time for better flavor and texture. Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
