Day 72: Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake Bars



Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Cheesecake Bars
Status: Homemade
Satisfaction: 10+!

Should I even try and explain what's happening in this sinful amalgamation?
1. Light Cinnamon-y Crust
2. Creamy Cheesecake Filling
3. Chocolate Chip Cookies
= This is so good, it should probably be illegal. In fact, it probably is.

I started with a cinnamon graham cracker crust (classic cheesecake base!) and worked my way into the fluffy cheesecake layer while the crust was baking. Then--since we've got to get in the best of all worlds here--I topped it with a chocolate chip cookie dough strudel-esque topping (egg-free! Just in case you're tempted to eat it before it goes in the baking pan...not that I'm speaking from personal experience or anything). So essentially, you're biting into a grahamcrackercrustcheesecakefilledchocolatechipcookiebar. 

Try saying that ten times fast. Or better yet, close your mouth (which, I'm sure, is expending copious amounts of saliva) and try this recipe (below the cut)!

Meet the latest spokesperson for Healthy Habits for Life: he's blue, he's monstrous, he's...
Healthy Cookie Monster?

Yep, you heard it right. In an attempt to promote healthy eating habits in our diabetes and obesity-ridden nation, Sesame Street has turned our beloved Cookie Monster into an eggplant-eating, calorie-conscious fiend of healthiness.

Guess this is one show my kids won't be watching. Sorry, Sesame Street, but my kids aren't sitting through Sacrilegious Street anytime soon.
