To make these Decadent Cheesecake Bars with Spiced Cookie Base, you will need the following ingredients per serving:
For the Spiced Cookie Base:
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup unsalted butter, softened
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
- 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
For the Cheesecake Filling:
- 4 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
- 1 egg
- 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. In a mixing bowl, combine the flour, butter, brown sugar, cinnamon, ginger, nutmeg, and salt. Mix until the ingredients are well combined and the mixture is crumbly. Press the mixture into the bottom of a greased 8x8 inch baking dish and bake for 10 minutes.
While the cookie base is baking, prepare the cheesecake filling. In a separate mixing bowl, beat the cream cheese until smooth. Add in the sugar, egg, and vanilla extract, and mix until well combined.
Once the cookie base has finished baking, pour the cheesecake filling over the top and spread it out evenly. Return the dish to the oven and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes, or until the cheesecake is set.
Once the Decadent Cheesecake Bars with Spiced Cookie Base have finished baking, remove them from the oven and allow them to cool completely before slicing and serving. These bars are the perfect combination of creamy and crunchy, with a delicious spiced cookie base that adds a unique twist to the classic cheesecake flavor.
