Description

Delicious bars combining creamy cheesecake and cookie dough for a delightful dessert experience.


Ingredients

  • 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 8 oz cream cheese, softened
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1 cup mini chocolate chips
  • 1 cup cookie dough (store-bought or homemade)


Instructions

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease a 9×9-inch baking dish.
  2. In a mixing bowl, combine the graham cracker crumbs, melted butter, and 1/4 cup sugar. Stir until well combined and press this mixture evenly into the bottom of your prepared baking dish.
  3. In another bowl, beat together the cream cheese, the remaining 1/2 cup sugar, and vanilla extract until the mixture is smooth and creamy.
  4. Add the eggs one at a time, mixing well after each addition.
  5. Gently fold in the mini chocolate chips and pour this luscious mixture over the graham cracker crust.
  6. Drop spoonfuls of cookie dough on top of the cheesecake layer, spacing them out evenly.
  7. Bake for 30-35 minutes or until the edges are set and the center remains slightly jiggly.
  8. Allow the bars to cool at room temperature, then refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving. Cut into bars and enjoy!
