1 pouch Betty Crocker™ oatmeal cookie mix
1/2 cup butter or margarine, softened
8 oz mascarpone cheese
1 package (8 oz) cream cheese, softened
1/2 cup sugar
2 tablespoons Gold Medal™ all-purpose flour
1 egg
1/2 cup canned pumpkin (not pumpkin pie mix)
1/2 teaspoon pumpkin pie spice
1/4 cup melted semisweet chocolate chips
2 tablespoons cognac
1 tablespoon instant espresso powder

Remove 3/4 cup of the cheesecake mixture, and place in small bowl; set aside. Stir pumpkin and pumpkin pie spice into original bowl of remaining cheesecake mixture. Stir melted chocolate, cognac and espresso powder into reserved 3/4 cup cheesecake mixture.
  • Pour pumpkin cheesecake mixture on top of crust. Spoon chocolate cheesecake mixture over pumpkin mixture; use knife to carefully swirl mixtures.
  • Bake 30 to 35 minutes or until edges are set (center will be just slightly jiggly). Cool 30 minutes.
  • In microwavable bowl, microwave heavy whipping cream 1 minute to 1 minute 30 seconds or until hot. Add 2/3 cup chocolate chips; stir until smooth. Spread mixture on top of cheesecake.
  • Refrigerate about 4 hours or until completely cool. Cut into bars to serve. Top each bar with a dollop of whipped cream just before serving.

These bars were a bit too dense for my taste. I think I would use less flour next time.
