To Make the Crust

Preheat oven to 350°F and coat a 9-inch square baking pan with non-stick spray.
Stir together melted butter and vanilla wafer crumbs. Scoop crust mixture into your prepared pan and press down evenly.

Add softened cream cheese and sugar to bowl of a stand mixer. Beat until smooth and creamy.

After 30 minutes is up, turn off the oven and allow the cheesecake to cool inside the oven for 10 minutes.
Remove the cheesecake from oven and finish cooling at room temperature.
When the cheesecake is fully cooled, cover and move to the fridge to chill for 3 hours.
Cut into squares and enjoy!
