Instructions
-
Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C). Grease a 9-inch springform or deep-dish pie pan.
-
Make the cookie dough crust: Beat butter and sugars until creamy. Mix in egg and vanilla. Stir in flour, baking soda, salt, and fold in chocolate chips.
-
Press most of the cookie dough into the bottom and slightly up the sides of the pan. Reserve some for topping.
-
Make the cheesecake layer: In a separate bowl, beat cream cheese until smooth. Mix in powdered sugar, egg, and vanilla until creamy.
-
Pour cheesecake batter over the cookie dough crust. Drop spoonfuls of reserved cookie dough on top and sprinkle with extra chocolate chips.
-
Bake for 30–35 minutes until golden and center is just set. Cool completely, then refrigerate at least 2 hours before serving.
Notes
- Add a swirl of Nutella or peanut butter to the cheesecake layer for extra flavor.
- Best served chilled, or warmed slightly for a gooey cookie base.
- Serve with ice cream or a drizzle of hot fudge for a true dessert experience.
