INGREDIENTS
CRUST
- 3 tablespoons melted butter
- 300 grams bag chocolate sandwich cookies about 25 cookies
COOKIE DOUGH
- 5 tablespoons softened butter
- 3/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
- 3-4 tablespoons milk
- 1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips
CHEESECAKE
- 24 oz cream cheese 3 packages
- 1 cup heavy whipping cream 35% cream
- 1 cup powdered sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla
INSTRUCTIONS
- CrustCombine melted butter and cookies in a food processor and process until smooth and a ball forms.
- Press into a 9" Springform pan (or a pie plate or square pan works just fine, too!).
- Cookie DoughIn a medium bowl, stir together softened butter and sugar with a spoon. Add salt, vanilla, milk, and flour and stir until a dough forms, adding a little more milk if needed. Stir in chocolate chips.
- Set in the refrigerator to chill.
- CheesecakeIn a large bowl, beat together cream cheese, cream, sugar, and vanilla until completely smooth and fluffy -- about 5 minutes on high speed.
- Divide the cookie dough in thirds. Roll 1 third into a circle the size of your pan and lay on top of your crust (I do this between 2 sheets of wax paper and it works perfectly!). Roll remaining ⅔ into small balls. Stir half of the cookie dough balls into the cheesecake, and set the remaining in the fridge for garnish.
- Top with cheesecake mixture and set in the refrigerator to chill until set, at least 4 hours.
- Garnish cheesecake with whipped cream if desired and extra cookie dough balls. Serve and store leftovers in the refrigerator for up to 5 days.
