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.

    They are not real sweet. I would like to try this with a brownie mix or actual chocolate chip cookie mix. The cookie and the filling did not have a lot of flavor. I would only make them again if I made the filling a little sweeter and change out the cookie dough. I had to use a smaller pan, not enough dough for 9x13 pan.

    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!!
