Brownie Bottom Cookie Dough Cheesecake Bars Recipes

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F. Grease bottom only of 13x9-inch pan with shortening or cooking spray.
• In large bowl, mix Brownie Base ingredients until well blended. Spread in pan. Bake 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, in large bowl, beat cream cheese with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add sugar; beat until blended. Add 2 eggs and vanilla; beat just until blended. In medium bowl, stir together chocolate chip cookie mix and flour. Add softened butter and 1 egg; stir until soft dough forms.
• Spread cheesecake layer mixture over hot brownie base. Drop teaspoonfuls of chocolate chip cookie dough over cheesecake layer.
• Bake 35 to 40 minutes or until cookie is golden brown. Cool 1 hour. Refrigerate at least 3 hours before cutting and serving. Cut into 6 rows by 5 rows. Store covered in refrigerator.

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350°F.
• Line 13x9-inch pan with foil, with ends of foil extending over sides. Spray with cooking spray. Microwave unsweetened chocolate and butter in microwaveable bowl on HIGH 2 min. or until butter is melted. Stir until chocolate is completely melted and mixture is well blended. Add 2 cups sugar; mix well. Stir in 3 eggs and 1 tsp. vanilla. Add flour; mix well. Spread onto bottom of prepared pan.
• Bake 20 min. Meanwhile, beat cream cheese, and remaining sugar and vanilla in large bowl with mixer until blended. Add sour cream; mix well. Add remaining eggs, 1 at a time, mixing on low speed after each just until blended.
• Pour cream cheese batter over partially baked brownie. (Cream cheese mixture will come almost to top of pan.) Bake 40 min. or until center is almost set. Run knife around rim of pan to loosen cake; cool.
• Refrigerate cheesecake 4 hours. Let stand at room temperature 30 min. before serving. Meanwhile, melt semi-sweet chocolate as directed on package.
• Use foil handles to lift cheesecake from pan. Drizzle with chocolate; let stand until firm before cutting cheesecake into bars.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Line a 10-inch (25-cm) springform pan with 2 layers of plastic wrap long enough to hang over the sides.
• Press the cookie dough evenly into a circle along the bottom of the pan, then fold the plastic wrap over the top.
• Unclasp the pan and freeze the cookie dough disk.
• Re-clasp the pan, then spray the bottom with cooking spray.
• Pour in the brownie batter.
• Spray the bottom and sides of a 5-inch (12-cm) or deeper, 8-inch (20-cm) wide cake pan, then press the greased cake pan into the brownie mix until the batter reaches halfway up the sides of the springform pan.
• Bake for 35 minutes, then cool for about 5 minutes.
• Reduce the oven temperature to 300°F (150°C).
• In a large bowl, mix together the cream cheese, sugar, vanilla, and egg until there are no lumps and the batter is smooth.
• While the brownie is still warm, carefully rotate and press down on the inner cake pan using oven mitts or pads to push the cooked brownie even more up the sides of the springform pan into an even ring. Chill for 30 minutes.
• Arrange a single layer of the sandwich cookies, roughly 14-15, on the bottom of the brownie shell as close together as possible.
• Pour the cheesecake batter on top of the cookies and spread evenly across the top.
• Tap the pan to release any large air bubbles, then bake for about 40 minutes until the cheesecake slightly jiggles in the center. Freeze until the top of the cheesecake is slightly firm, about 30 minutes.
• Arrange another layer of cookies on top of the cheesecake layer, then place the frozen cookie dough disk on top.
• Tuck in any edges, then bake for 20 minutes.
• Chill completely, then release the pan. Slice, and serve with a dollop of whipped cream topped with another cookie!
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• PLEASE READ ALL DIRECTIONS BEFORE BEGINNING. THE PROCEDURE IS A BIT OUT OF THE ORDINARY.
• Heat oven to 350º.
• Line 13x9 inch pan with foil. I use a disposable foil casserole pan.
• Grease or spray w/ cooking spray.
• Make sure PAN IS DEEP, as cheesecake portion of this recipe tends to puff up.
• When they are cool, put them in the fridge and they "calm down".
• I also line any pan I use with foil, extending the foil over the edges. This makes it easy to get the whole thing out for slicing.
• Prepare brownie mix according to directions on box and pour into pan.
• Bake 15 minutes or until top is shiny and center is ALMOST set. At this point it is only partially done.
• Beat cream cheese, sugar and vanilla until well blended.
• Add sour cream; mix well.
• Add eggs, one at a time, mixing on low speed after each egg to mix well.
• Pour over partially cooked brownie batter in pan. (Filling will come almost to the top.).
• Bake 40 minutes or until center of cheesecake part is almost set.
• Run knife/spatula around edge to loosen cake.
• After cooling, refrigerate 4 hours or overnight.
• Drizzle the melted chocolate squares over top. Let stand until chocolate is firm.
• Remove from pan using the foil to lift it out.
• Dip a knife in hot water to cut these.
• Cut into 16 pieces, or more, to serve.
