Peanut Butter & Jelly Cheesecake

1. Make the crust:
   • Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
   • In a medium bowl, combine graham cracker crumbs, sugar, and melted butter.
   • Press the mixture firmly into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan to form a crust.
   • Bake for 8-10 minutes until golden, then remove from the oven and let cool while you prepare the filling.
2. Prepare the cheesecake filling:
   • In a large bowl, beat the softened cream cheese and peanut butter until smooth and creamy.
   • Add powdered sugar and vanilla extract, continuing to mix until fully incorporated.
   • Add eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
   • Stir in sour cream and heavy cream, mixing until the filling is smooth and creamy.
3. Assemble the cheesecake:
   • Pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled graham cracker crust in the springform pan.
   • Drop spoonfuls of the jelly on top of the cheesecake filling, then use a knife or skewer to swirl the jelly into the cheesecake mixture for a marbled effect.
4. Bake the cheesecake:
   • Bake the cheesecake at 325°F (165°C) for 50-60 minutes, or until the center is set but slightly jiggly.
   • Turn off the oven and let the cheesecake cool in the oven with the door cracked for 1 hour. Then, transfer it to the fridge to chill for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
5. Serve:
   • Once chilled and set, carefully remove the cheesecake from the springform pan and transfer it to a serving plate.
   • Slice and enjoy the perfect combination of peanut butter, jelly, and creamy cheesecake!
