Ingredients
Scale
2 cups crushed chocolate chip cookies
1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
32 ounces cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
4 large eggs
1 cup sour cream
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup all-purpose flour, heat-treated
1/2 cup unsalted butter, softened
3/4 cup packed light brown sugar
1/4 cup granulated sugar
2 tablespoons milk
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup mini chocolate chips
Instructions
Prepare the Cookie Crust: Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C). Combine the crushed chocolate chip cookies and melted butter until resembling wet sand. Press this mixture firmly into a 9-inch springform pan to form a crust. Bake for about 10 minutes until golden. Allow to cool.
Make the Cheesecake Filling: Beat softened cream cheese until smooth. Gradually add granulated sugar, mixing well. Add eggs, one at a time, mixing thoroughly after each. Blend in sour cream, vanilla extract, and 1/4 cup of flour until smooth.
Pour the Filling into the Crust: Carefully pour the cheesecake filling over the cooled cookie crust.
Bake the Cheesecake: Bake for about 1 hour until edges are set but center jiggles. Turn off the oven, crack the door, and let cool in the oven for about an hour.
Prepare the Cookie Dough: In a separate bowl, cream together softened butter, light brown sugar, and granulated sugar. Stir in vanilla, milk, and salt until smooth. Fold in heat-treated flour and chocolate chips.
Assemble the Cheesecake: Once cooled, dollop the cookie dough mixture on top of the cheesecake. Swirl for a marbled effect if desired.
Final Chill: Cover loosely with plastic and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
Notes
Make sure all ingredients are at room temperature for smooth blending. Don’t overbake; a jiggly center yields creamy texture.
