- 1 Hand-held electric whisk
Ingredients
- 300 g of chocolate chip cookies
- 120 g of unsalted butter melted
- 460 g of cream cheese room temperature
- 75 g of granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract
- 245 ml of whipped cream room temperature

- 250 g of dark chocolate
Topping
- ¾ cup whipped cream homemade or shop bought

Instructions
- Blitz chocolate chip cookies in a food processor until they reach a crumb-like consistency. If you don't have a food processor, place the cookies in a sandwich bag and crush them using a rolling pin or a similar blunt object.
- Combine the cookie crumbs with melted unsalted butter in a medium-sized bowl, stirring until the mixture is well incorporated.
- Transfer the cookie mixture into a square springform pan, ensuring it is evenly spread and firm. Cover the pan with plastic wrap and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- In the meantime, whisk cream cheese, sugar, and vanilla in a separate bowl until the mixture is smooth. Gradually add the heavy cream, gently folding or whisking it into the mixture until it is well combined.
- Stir in the chocolate chips until they are evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
- Grab the cookie crust from the refrigerator. Pour the cheesecake filling onto the crust, using a smoother to ensure an even surface.
- Pour a layer of melted dark chocolate over the cheesecake, smoothing it out for a uniform finish.
- Cover the cheesecake with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least four hours to allow it to set.
- Once the cheesecake has set, garnish it with whipped cream and a cookie. Use a warm knife to cut the cheesecake into equal-sized squares.
- Enjoy these delicious chocolate chip cheesecake bars.
