To make Gingersnap Bars, you will need the following ingredients:
For the crust:
- 2 cups gingersnap cookie crumbs
- 1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
- 1/4 cup granulated sugar
For the filling:
- 16 oz cream cheese, softened
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 tsp ground cinnamon
- 1/2 tsp ground ginger
- 1/4 tsp ground nutmeg
To start, preheat your oven to 350°F. In a large bowl, mix together the gingersnap cookie crumbs, melted butter, and granulated sugar until well combined. Press the mixture into the bottom of a 9x13 inch baking dish and bake for 10 minutes.
While the crust is baking, prepare the filling. In a separate bowl, beat the cream cheese and granulated sugar until smooth. Add in the eggs, one at a time, and mix until well combined. Stir in the vanilla extract, cinnamon, ginger, and nutmeg.
Pour the filling over the baked crust and smooth it out with a spatula. Bake for an additional 25-30 minutes, or until the filling is set. Let the bars cool completely before slicing and serving.
These Gingersnap Bars are the perfect dessert for any occasion. They are creamy, spicy, and sweet, with a crunchy gingersnap crust that adds the perfect texture. Serve them at your next party or enjoy them as a sweet treat after dinner.
