Cheesecake Caramel Toffee Chocolate Chip Cookie Bars Recipes

TOFFEE CHEESECAKE BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. In a small bowl, combine flour, confectioners' sugar, cocoa and baking soda. Cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Press onto the bottom of an ungreased 13x9-in. baking dish. Bake 12-15 minutes or until set., In a large bowl, beat cream cheese until fluffy. Add milk, eggs and vanilla; beat until smooth. Stir in 3/4 cup toffee bits. Pour over crust. Bake 18-22 minutes longer or until center is almost set., Cool on a wire rack 15 minutes. Sprinkle with remaining toffee bits; cool completely. Cover and refrigerate 8 hours or overnight.

CHEESECAKE CARAMEL TOFFEE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Prep a 9 x 13 pan by lining it with parchment paper. Set aside.
• Cream together the butter, sugars, salt and vanilla. Beat in the egg, then the baking soda and flour.
• Stir in the chocolate chips, caramel bits and toffee pieces.
• Divide mixture in half. Spread half of the dough evenly into the prepared pan. I use my fingers to do this. Set aside.
• In a medium bowl, cream together the cream cheese and white sugar until fully blended. Beat in the egg and vanilla. Mix until completely smooth.
• Pour and spread cheesecake layer over the pressed cookie dough layer.
• Using your hands, press pieces of the remaining dough into flat discs. Lay on top of the cheesecake layer. You don't have to have the entire cheesecake layer totally covered. In fact, leaving a bit of the cheesecake layer peeking through in spots looks good once the bars bake and cool.
• Bake for 20 - 30 minutes or until the bars are cooked through and top is lightly brown.
• Allow to cool completely before removing from pan by way of the parchment paper.
• Once cooled and removed from pan, cut into twelve equal bars.
• Store in refrigerator.
• NOTE: If you use the caramel bits in this recipe, allow the bars to come almost to room temperature (after refrigerating) prior to serving. The caramel bits harden up a bit in the fridge.

CHOCOLATE CHIP-TOFFEE CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• Heat oven to 300°F. In medium bowl, mix crumbs, 2 tablespoons sugar and the butter. In ungreased 9-inch springform pan, press crumb mixture in bottom and 1 to 1 1/2 inches up side.
• In large bowl, beat cream cheese, 1/2 cup sugar and the vanilla with electric mixer on medium speed until smooth. Add eggs, one at a time, beating until smooth after each addition. Reserve 2 tablespoons of the toffee bits for garnish; gently stir remaining toffee bits into cream cheese mixture. Pour mixture into crust.
• Bake 50 to 60 minutes or until set. Turn off oven; leave door open 4 inches. Cool cheesecake in oven 30 minutes.
• Remove cheesecake from oven; place on cooling rack. Without releasing or removing side of pan, run metal spatula carefully along side of cheesecake to loosen. Cool 30 minutes. Run metal spatula along side of cheesecake to loosen again. Refrigerate uncovered until thoroughly chilled, at least 3 hours.
• In small microwavable bowl, microwave chocolate chips and whipping cream uncovered on High 20 to 30 seconds or until chips are melted and can be stirred smooth. Cool 5 minutes. Spread topping evenly over top of cheesecake. Sprinkle reserved 2 tablespoons toffee bits around outer edge. Refrigerate until topping is set, about 15 minutes. Remove side of pan before serving.

CHEESECAKE CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIE BARS

Steps:

• In a large mixing bowl, cream together the butter, shortening, sugars, vanilla, salt and vinegar. Beat in the egg, then the baking soda and flour. Stir in the chocolate chips. Divide the dough into two equal portions and set aside.
• In a medium mixing bowl cream the cream cheese with the sugar until thoroughly combined. Beat in the egg and vanilla.
• In a 9x13 pan, spread 1/2 of the cookie dough mixture evenly across the bottom. (This is somewhat tricky to do. I find it easier to add dollops of cookie dough throughout the pan and then spread all the dollops together. Spread the cream cheese mixture on the top of the cookie dough. With the remaining cookie dough, flatten chunks of dough between your hands into discs, and then place on top of the cream cheese mixture. (The dough discs don't have to touch, just place them near each other so they cover the surface as well as possible.).
• Bake at 350 for 35-45 minutes, or until the top is brown and cooked through. Cool completely and store in the refrigerator.

CHOCOLATE CHIP TOFFEE BARS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°. In a large bowl, combine flour and brown sugar; cut in butter until mixture resembles coarse crumbs. Add egg; mix well. Stir in almonds and 1-1/2 cups chocolate chips. Set aside 1-1/2 cups for topping. Press remaining mixture into a greased 13x9-in. baking pan., Bake 10 minutes. Pour milk over crust; sprinkle with 1-1/2 cups toffee bits, reserved topping and remaining chocolate chips. Bake 25-30 minutes longer or until lightly browned. Sprinkle with remaining toffee bits. Cool on a wire rack. Cut into bars.

TOFFEE CHIP COOKIE BOTTOM CHEESECAKE RECIPE BY TASTY

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
• Wrap the outer bottom of a 7-inch (18 cm) springform pan with 2 layers of foil, going at least halfway up the sides. This will prevent water from leaking into the pan when placed in the water bath. Then, line the inside bottom of the pan with parchment paper.
• Press half of the cookie dough evenly against the bottom and about ⅓ of the way up the sides of the pan. Pour in the cheesecake batter.
• Place the springform pan in an 11-inch (27-cm) round pan or roasting pan. Fill the larger pan with hot water until it reaches halfway up the sides of the springform, being careful not to splash any onto the cheesecake. Carefully transfer the pan to the oven and bake for 45-55 minutes. The center of the cheesecake should still jiggle slightly when you shake the pan.
• Turn off the oven and leave the cheesecake inside for 1 hour to cool. Carefully remove the cheesecake from the water bath and let cool at room temperature for another hour, then transfer to the refrigerator to chill for at least 4 hours, or overnight.
• Reduce the oven temperature to 325°F (160°C). Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
• Using a #30 (1-ounce) scoop, scoop the remaining cookie dough onto the prepared baking sheet. You should get about 18 cookies. (Alternatively, wrap the remaining dough in plastic wrap and store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks, or in the freezer for up to 2 months.)
• Bake the cookies for 12-15 minutes, until the edges brown slightly. Remove from the oven and immediately sprinkle the cookies with flaky sea salt. Let cool on the baking sheets for 10-15 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack to cool completely. Cut 2-3 of the cookies in half, then crush 2-3 more for topping the cheesecake. Reserve the remaining cookies for another use.
• Make the toffee sauce: In a medium pot, combine the brown sugar, cream, and butter. Cook over medium-low heat for 3-4 minutes, until starting to thicken. Add the vanilla and flaky salt and cook for another minute, until the salt dissolves.
• Pour the sauce into a heatproof jar, cover, and let cool at room temperature. The sauce will keep in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 weeks.
• Once the cheesecake has chilled, use a knife or offset spatula to loosen the cheesecake around the sides of the pan, then release the springform. Transfer the cheesecake to a serving platter.
• Top the cheesecake with the toffee sauce, halved cookies, crushed cookies, and mini chocolate chips.
• Slice and serve.
• Enjoy!
