SNICKERS CHEESECAKE BARS ON AN OREO CRUST









Snickers Cheesecake Bars
Ingredients:

Crust:
20 Oreo cookies, crushed in food processor
5 Tablespoons butter, melted
 

Filling:
16 ounces cream cheese,  room temperature
1 egg
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
13 fun size snickers, chopped (about 1.5 cups total)
1/3 cup chocolate chips, optional

(optional:melted chocolate chips to drizzle on top)

Directions:

Preheat oven to 350. Line a 8x8 pan with nonstick foil leaving an overhang on the sides.

For the crust: Stir the cookie crumbs and melted butter together.  Press into the pan. Bake for 9-10 minutes.  Cool.

For the filling: Beat cream cheese, egg, sugar, and vanilla extract  until creamy, about 3 minutes. Fold in the Snickers and spread the mixture over the cooled crust. Top with chocolate chips. Bake for 30-35 minutes, or until the cheesecake has set up and the edges are lightly browned.  Cool for 30 minutes and then chill in fridge at least 3 hours.  Cut into squares and drizzle with melted chocolate chips, if desired.
