Made with cookie dough and layer of cheesecake in the middle. Easy and delicious...don't eat too much at once, even I know you can't help it to have more.

- 2 packages of refrigerated chocolate chips cookie dough, at room temperature
- 1 package of cream cheese (8 oz), at room temperature

Tips: you may substitute with other cookie dough, such as peanut butter cookie dough, sugar cookie dough, white chocolate macadamia cookie dough, or home made cookie dough.
Easy to make:
- Line a parchment paper in a 8x8 metal baking pan, lightly spray with non-stick cooking spray.
- Place 1 package of cookie dough on the bottom of the pan. Flatten with your hand or spoon evenly to fit the size of the pan.
- In a small mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese and sugar together with an electric hand mixture until smooth. Add egg and vanilla, beat together again until smooth. Pour the cheesecake mixture over the cookie dough in the pan.
- Use your hands to form "clumps" from the other package of cookie dough, smoosh it together and flatten them out. Place the teaspoon-sized clumps onto the top of the cheesecake batter.
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F. Bake for 30-45 minutes until the top turns lightly golden brown.
- Chill in the refrigerator overnight or at least for a couple of hours until firm before cutting into squares.
