RASPBERRY-WHITE CHOCOLATE CHEESECAKE COOKIE BARS
When it comes to choosing which desserts I'm going to add to my arsenal of recipes, I almost always stick to the unfussy classics -- cakes, cookies, bars, and, in this case, cheesecake cookie bars! This recipe blends the dense, pan-baked goodness of a bar with layers of cheesecake and cookie dough that are dotted with white chocolate and fresh raspberries. There is no bake-off or bake sale that you can't win with these.

Steps:
- To make the cookie layer: In a stand mixer, cream together the butter, brown sugar, and granulated sugar for 3 minutes, until smooth. Add the eggs and vanilla and continue to mix, scraping down the sides of the bowl. Add the flour, salt, baking soda, and baking powder and mix on low speed until the ingredients are incorporated. Fold in 1 cup (165 g) of the white chocolate chips.
- To make the cheesecake layer: In a food processor, combine the cream cheese, granulated sugar, egg, and vanilla and mix for 2 minutes, scraping down the sides as needed, until the ingredients are evenly combined and the mixture is very smooth.
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Line a 9 by 13-inch (23 by 33-cm) baking pan with parchment paper with a little hanging over the sides. Press slightly more than half of the cookie dough mixture into the bottom of the pan to make one even layer. Spread the cheesecake mixture on top of the cookie dough. Crumble the remaining cookie dough and sprinkle it on top of the cheesecake mixture, then sprinkle with the remaining 1/4 cup (40 g) white chocolate chips and the raspberries.
- Place in the oven and bake for 40 to 45 minutes, until the cookie dough is golden brown. Remove the bars from the oven and let cool for 30 minutes. Transfer them to the fridge for at least 2 hours, or overnight if time allows (don?t skip this part). Cut into bars and serve.

GRANDMA FINA'S CHOCOLATE CHIP CHEESECAKE WITH A CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE CRUST
Steps:
- COOKS NOTES: All dairy ingredients should be room temperature so they blend easily without lumps. MAKE THE CRUST: 1. Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Spray a 10" springform cheesecake pan with cooking spray. Line with a parchment round; spray again lightly. Double wrap with foil to the top of the pan; press against the pan. 2. To the bowl of a large food processor, process all the crust ingredients; about 1 minute. The mixture should hold together when pinched. Press into the lined springform pan; go 1" up the sides. Use the flat end of a measuring cup. Bake 8-10 minutes on the middle rack of the oven. Remove and cool before adding the batter. PREPARE A WATER BATH: Fill a large roasting pan with 1" of water. Place the foil wrapped pan in the middle of the water bath. 1. MAKE THE BATTER: FOOD PROCESSOR METHOD: Add the cream cheese to the bowl of a 14-cup food processor. Pulse a few times just until smooth. 2. Add the sour cream and ricotta cheese and pulse a few more times until smooth. Scrape the sides of the bowl. 3. Add the eggs, melted (cooled) butter and vanilla extract. Process 30 seconds. 4. Add the sugar, cornstarch and flour. Process 1 minute until smooth. Scrape the sides of the bowl and process 30 seconds more. 5. Pour the batter directly into the pan in the water bath. Swirl 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips into the batter. Sprinkle the top with the remaining 1/2 cup. Bake at 325 degrees on the middle oven rack for about 1 hour; the center should still jiggle and the top should be lightly browned. Rotate the pan after each 30 minutes baked. Watch carefully after 45 minutes baking time. Remove the pan from the water bath. Remove the foil. Cool completely before storage. Refrigerate when cooled. This cheesecake is best made 1-2 days before serving.
CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE DOUGH CHEESECAKE RECIPE - (4.5/5)

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325°F. Cookie dough: In a medium bowl, combine the butter and sugars for the cookie dough. Add the milk, vanilla and blend. Mix in the flour, salt and the chocolate chips. The dough will be wet. Gently roll the dough into small teaspoons size balls and place them on a wax paper lined plate or baking sheet. Place them in the freezer to harden while making the rest of the cheesecake. Crust: Lightly grease the bottom and sides of a 10-inch springform pan. In a medium bowl, combine the butter with the graham crackers or cookie crumbs. Press onto the bottom and about halfway up the sides of the prepared pan. Cheesecake: Using an electric mixer on high speed, beat the cream cheese, sugar, eggs and flour until smooth. Add the vanilla and sour cream and mix just until blended. Be careful not to over-mix, incorporating too much air into the batter can contribute to a cheesecake cracking on top during baking. Pour half the batter into the prepared crust. Gently stir in the cookie dough balls and the additional 1 cup mini chocolate chips into the remaining batter. Pour into the pan, spreading the batter to the sides of the pan and evening it out across the top. Make sure to try to evenly distribute the cookie balls so that every slice has some in it. Bake the cheesecake at 325°F for one hour. Turn off the oven and prop the door open several inches (make sure no kids are around!). Let the cake sit in the oven for an additional 30 minutes. Remove the cake from the oven and let it cool completely on a wire rack. Refrigerate until chilled. For best results chill overnight. Whipped cream garnish: Whip cream with sugar until soft peaks form. To serve, cut into slices and top with whipped cream and mini chocolate chips.

Steps:
- Put the cookies into the bowl of a food processor and pulse until crumbled. Add the butter and pulse until well combined. Scrape the crumbs into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Using the bottom of an 8-inch cake pan, press down very hard all the way around so that the crumbs are flat and even.
- Put the cream cheese and sugar into a bowl and mix together gently, this will take only a few turns of the spoon. Melt the chocolate in a large heatproof bowl set over a pan of simmering water, making sure the bottom of the bowl does not touch the water, or you can do this in the microwave. Pour a quarter of the chocolate into a small bowl, add the oil, set aside and keep warm.
- Now add a large dollop of the cream cheese mixture into the large bowl of chocolate and stir well to combine. Add another dollop of cream cheese mixture to the chocolate mixture and stir to combine. Keep adding the cream cheese mixture, one dollop at a time, and mixing it like mad until the chocolate mixture begins to look uniform, smooth and silky. At this point, add the remaining cream cheese mixture into the chocolate mixture and mix together until it is completely incorporated.
- Pour the mixture on top of the biscuit base and use the back of a large spoon to smooth the top. Press it down well so there are no gaps. Put the cheesecake in the refrigerator for about 20 minutes, or the freezer for 10 minutes, until the chocolate top is beginning to firm up a little. It won't be totally hard, but it will begin to feel a bit tacky.
- Five minutes before the cheesecake is ready, melt the white chocolate and make sure the milk chocolate is nice and runny. You can warm it in a microwave for 20 seconds if it has hardened. Now remove the cheesecake from the fridge and, acting quickly, pour the milk chocolate over the top, spreading it out as you go until the top is completely covered. For a smooth finish, pick up the cheesecake and tilt it back and forth, letting the chocolate run over and cover the cream cheese filling. Now drizzle white chocolate lines across the top about 1/2-inch apart. The neatest way to do this is by putting the chocolate into a piping bag fitted with a very small nozzle. Place the cheesecake so the lines are running towards you, then take a toothpick and drag it from left to right, 1/2-inch apart so you have a grid. Then drag the toothpick from right to left between the lines that you have just made. You will need to do this quite quickly so the chocolate lines are still runny.
- Leave the cheesecake in a cool place to set for about 2 hours.
- When you are ready to serve, run a knife around the inside of the pan and remove the outside of the pan. Serve in wedges with a drizzle of heavy cream.
Tips:
- To ensure a smooth and creamy cheesecake filling, use high-quality cream cheese that is at room temperature. This will allow it to blend easily with the other ingredients.
- Do not overmix the cheesecake batter. Overmixing can result in a dense and crumbly cheesecake.
- Bake the cheesecake in a water bath. This will help to prevent the cheesecake from cracking.
- After baking, allow the cheesecake to cool completely before refrigerating. This will help to prevent the cheesecake from sinking.
- When making the chocolate cookie crust, use a food processor or blender to grind the cookies into fine crumbs. This will help to ensure that the crust is evenly distributed and holds together well.
