Ingredients
Topping
- 1 cup milk chocolate chips
Crust
- 1 (17.5 ounce) pouch double chocolate cookie mix (such as King Arthur Flour®)
- ½ cup butter
- 1 egg
- 4 drops red food coloring, or more as needed
Cheesecake
- 2 (8 ounce) packages cream cheese, softened
- 1 ½ cups white sugar
- ½ cup butter
- 3 eggs
- 2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
- ½ cup heavy whipping cream
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
Directions
Step 1
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C). Butter a 9×13-inch baking pan.
Step 2
Stir cookie mix, 1/2 cup butter, 1 egg, and food coloring together in a bowl until just combined. Spread cookie dough into the prepared pan to cover entire bottom surface.
Step 3
Beat cream cheese, sugar, 1/2 cup butter, and 3 eggs together in a bowl using an electric mixer on medium-high speed. Add flour, heavy cream, and vanilla extract; mix until smooth, about 2 minutes. Pour cheesecake layer over the cookie dough layer in the pan.
Step 4
Bake in the preheated oven until cheesecake layer is slightly golden and firm to the touch, 30 to 45 minutes. Let cool.
Step 5
Melt chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each melting, about 90 seconds. Pour over the cooled cheesecake. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until set. Cut into bars and store in the refrigerator.
