Tips that Are Worth Your Attention!
- Prepare the Baking Pan: Line your baking pan with foil or parchment paper. This will make it easier to lift the cheesecake bars out later.
- Customize Your Cookie Dough: Add your choice of nuts, sprinkles, candy, or different cookies to the cookie dough to give it your own twist.
- Make Slutty Cheesecake Bars: To create slutty cheesecake bars, start by adding a layer of whole Oreos on top of the first cookie dough layer. Then, spread the cheesecake mixture and the remaining cookie dough over the Oreos.
- Chill Before Cutting: Let the cheesecake bars chill completely before cutting them. They taste even better after being refrigerated for a few hours.
- Store Properly: Keep the chocolate chip cheesecake bars in an airtight container in the refrigerator for 3-4 days.
