Chocolate Chip Cheese Bars

A few weeks ago, we made a super easy dessert: Chocolate Chip Cheese Bars. I've been making these for years. The recipe is from a magazine I no longer receive, haven't for years, and I don't even think it exists anymore. I think it was called Quick Cooking - ?

First, butter an 8x8 pan. Then press store bought or homemade cookie dough into the bottom of the pan (use about half the dough).

 Beat together 8 oz cream cheese, 1/2 c sugar, and 1 egg. Spread in pan on top the cookie dough.

 Crumble the remaining cookie dough into the pan on top of the cheesecake layer.

 Bake at 350 until done (35~40 min, but ours took longer).

Enjoy! And keep leftovers in the refrigerator.

This was the first time we used homemade cookie dough (this is our not a lot of time but want a dessert so we cheat with store bought cookie dough dessert). We made half of the Toll House recipe but would have liked a bit more dough so next time we'll make a full batch and whatever we don't use, just bake cookies on the side. Or next time we'll go back to store bought cookie dough!
