Instructions

  1. Step 1: In a bowl, combine 1 1/2 cups graham cracker crumbs, 1/2 cup melted unsalted butter, and 1/4 cup packed brown sugar. Press this mixture firmly into an 8x8-inch baking pan to form the crust; chill while preparing the filling.
  2. Step 2: Beat 16 oz softened cream cheese with 1 cup granulated sugar and 2 tsp vanilla extract until smooth and creamy using an electric mixer on medium speed for 2-3 minutes.
  3. Step 3: Add 1/2 cup heat-treated all-purpose flour and 1/2 cup mini chocolate chips to the cream cheese mixture and fold gently to incorporate.
  4. Step 4: In a separate bowl, whip 1 cup cold heavy cream to stiff peaks. Fold the whipped cream carefully into the cream cheese mixture until fully combined and light.
  5. Step 5: Spread half of the cheesecake mixture evenly over the chilled crust, then sprinkle 1/4 cup mini chocolate chips over the layer.
  6. Step 6: Spoon the remaining cheesecake mixture over the chocolate chip layer and smooth the top with a spatula. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours until firm.
  7. Step 7: Cut into 12 bars and serve chilled for a creamy, cookie dough-inspired cheesecake experience.
