Expert Tips

Use a wet knife for cutting cheesecake bars, wiping off crumbs after each cut.

Cold butter is needed to create a "just right" streusel texture and a crust that's easy to handle.

This turned out great and my BF also loved it. I actually added extra milk chocolate morsels (can't get enough chocolate). Only thing I would change for next time, add more cheesecake batter (i.e. cream cheese portion) and maybe melt some chocolate over the crust.

I came across the recipe out of desperation. I accidentally bought a pkg of the Oatmeal Chocolate Chip cookie mix, instead of buying regular Choc. Chip. No one in my family, except me, likes oatmeal cookies. Anywhos... so I was looking for a way to doctor up this cookie mix and maybe disguise the oatmeal. Man oh man did I strike gold when I found this recipe. I made it per the instructions the first time and it was awesome. Everyone loved it. The next time I made it, I added 3/4 cup of sour cream to the cream cheese mixture, to give it that NY cheesecake taste & I also added 1/2 c of flaked coconut and 1/2 c of lightly toasted chopped pecans to the cookie mix before I mixed it up, then prepared per the instructions. This was the ultimate dessert for me. It had all the things I love; oatmeal, chocolate, cheesecake, coconut & pecans!!! All I can say is WOW!!

I love this recipe. I read the reviews before making it and I just used a bit smaller pan and instead cut the cheesecake filling recipe in half so I used 1 bar of cream cheese 1/2 cup of sugar 1 egg and then the same amount of vanilla. I could tell when I was making it that it was going to be perfect becasue i like to taste test along the way lol. The bars turned out great and I had no issue with having to little oeatmeal cookie mixture. I will be making this again tomorrow becasue I gave my first batch toa friend for helping me and I want some in my own house!
